TPO Roof Construction
Welcome to Elmhurst Roofing
Serving Elmhurst, IL
Thermoplastic Olefin (TPO) roof construction has become an increasingly popular choice in the commercial roofing industry due to its durability and energy efficiency. TPO roofing systems are composed of a single-ply membrane that combines the advantages of both rubber and plastic, providing a robust and resilient roofing solution. The construction process involves installing a TPO membrane over a roof deck, which is then heat-welded at the seams to ensure a watertight seal. This type of roofing is particularly important as it offers superior resistance to ultraviolet, ozone, and chemical exposure, which are common challenges in urban environments. Additionally, TPO roofing is known for its flexibility and ability to accommodate building movement or settling, making it a reliable choice for various architectural designs. Its reflective surface also helps in reducing heat absorption, which can contribute to lower energy costs for building owners.
