Commercial Roofing NYC refers to the installation, maintenance, and repair of roofs on commercial buildings such as offices, warehouses, retail stores, and other types of commercial properties. These roofs are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, such as heavy rain, snow, and wind, as well as exposure to UV rays from the sun.
There are many different types of commercial roofing materials available, including asphalt shingles, metal roofing, EPDM (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer), TPO (thermoplastic olefin), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), and built-up roofing (BUR). The choice of roofing material will depend on factors such as the size and type of the building, the climate in the area, and the owner’s budget.
It is important to properly maintain commercial roofs to ensure they last as long as possible and prevent leaks and other problems. Regular inspections and maintenance, such as clearing debris from gutters and drains, checking for damage, and making repairs as needed, can help extend the life of a commercial roof.
Asphalt shingles
Asphalt shingles are one of the most popular types of roofing materials used in North America for both residential and commercial buildings. They are made of a base mat or backing material, such as fiberglass or organic felt, which is coated with asphalt and topped with granules to provide color and texture.
Asphalt shingles come in a variety of styles, including three-tab, architectural or dimensional, and premium. Three-tab shingles are the most basic and affordable, while architectural and premium shingles offer more depth and dimension, as well as increased durability and longevity.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is a type of roofing material that is made of metal panels or tiles. It is a popular choice for both residential and commercial buildings due to its durability, longevity, and energy efficiency.
Metal roofing can be made of a variety of metals, including steel, aluminum, copper, and zinc. The panels or tiles are typically coated with a protective layer of paint or other finish to prevent rust and corrosion, and they are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions such as heavy rain, snow, and wind.
EPDM
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a type of synthetic rubber that is commonly used as a roofing material for flat or low-slope roofs. It is a popular choice for commercial and industrial buildings due to its durability, affordability, and ease of installation.
EPDM roofing membranes are typically sold in large rolls that are either fully adhered to the roof deck with adhesive or mechanically fastened with screws and plates. They can also be installed using a ballasted system, where the membrane is held in place with large stones or pavers.
TPO
TPO (thermoplastic olefin) is a type of single-ply roofing membrane that is commonly used on flat or low-slope roofs in commercial and industrial buildings. It is a popular choice for its durability, energy efficiency, and ease of installation.
TPO roofing membranes are typically made of a blend of rubber and plastic materials, and they are available in a variety of thicknesses and colors. They are installed using heat-welded seams, which creates a strong, watertight bond between the seams and the roofing material.
