A sturdy roof that protects your business is essential. It safeguards not only your employees and equipment, but also your all-important inventory. While all commercial roofing systems are characterized by their strength, some stand out as among the most durable and long-lasting systems available.
Goodrich Roofing lists four of the most popular types of commercial roofs by virtue of their durability and resilience.
1. TPO Single-Ply Roofing Membrane
This is an advanced roofing membrane made from a rubber compound combined with polyester fabric. The result is a membrane system that can easily withstand tearing, puncturing and exposure. Its most attractive feature though is its ability to naturally repel heat. TPO single-ply roofs are affordable and can be used on a range of buildings, from warehouses to restaurants.
2. Metal Roofing
Almost half of all low-slope commercial and industrial buildings have this kind of roofing system. Metal roofs boast exceptional strength and stability, and can even resist fire. It’s a popular choice for both residential and commercial properties because it requires little maintenance to keep it in good condition.
3. Tile
This roofing material rivals metal roofs in terms of sheer longevity. Both clay and concrete tiles can endure harsh weather conditions, allowing them to last a long time. A tile roof also comes in a range of dimensional profiles, sizes and colors. In fact, tile has one of the broadest color palettes of any roofing material.
4. Asphalt Roofs
The classic asphalt roofing system is also trendy among smaller commercial properties. Architectural shingles, compared to three-tab, have a service life comparable to premium roofing materials. They are also sturdy. Some variants can be made to emulate the look of wood shake shingles.
