The 3 Unique Advantages of TPO Roofing Systems

If you are currently in the market for a new flat roof and want an energy-efficient option that is easy to install, then you should definitely consider TPO roofing. TPO, or thermoplastic olefin, is touted to have the UV-resistant qualities of an EPDM roof and is as heat-weldable as PVC. Aside from this, a TPO roof has many other great qualities and, in today’s post, a roof storm damage specialist shares three of them. 

1. Economical

One of the reasons why home and business owners are so attracted to TPO roofing is its affordability. TPO roofs offer a lot of the same benefits as other flat roof options, such as hot-air weldable seams and energy efficiency, but at a much lower cost. On average, the installation of a TPO roof costs anywhere between $5 to $7 per square foot. 

2. Durability

Another reason why TPO is so popular for flat roof replacements is they are extremely durable, TPO is more resistant to mold growth, bacteria, dirt accumulation, tears and punctures. They also do well against ultraviolet and chemical exposure. In addition to this, TPO roofs are also made to be flexible which means they can handle your building’s thermal expansion and contraction.  

3. Ease of Installation

Because TPO membranes are generally manufactured with wider sheets and are lighter in weight, they are very easy to install. With fewer seams, less time is spent installing your new TPO roof which translates to direct savings for you or your company.
