Commercial Flat Roofing In Decatur, GA

Types of Commercial Flat Roofs We Install and Repair

Selecting the right roofing system is crucial for your building’s longevity and performance. At Tri-Tech Roofing, we offer a full range of commercial flat roofing options tailored to your needs and budget:

• Built-Up Roofing (BUR):
• Known as “tar and gravel” roofs, BUR systems have been trusted for over a century. They consist of multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics, creating a durable, redundant membrane that stands up to weather and foot traffic. BUR is valued for its longevity and ability to handle building movement and thermal shock.
• Modified Bitumen (Mod Bit):
• Modified bitumen roofs combine the strength of BUR with advanced polymer technology, offering flexibility and resistance to extreme temperatures. These systems are ideal for roofs with regular foot traffic and are available in self-adhering, cold-process, or torch-applied options, providing excellent durability and energy efficiency.
• Single-Ply Membranes (TPO, PVC, EPDM):
• TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin): Lightweight, flexible, and highly reflective, TPO roofing helps reduce cooling costs and is resistant to UV rays and chemical exposure. It’s an eco-friendly, recyclable choice for businesses focused on sustainability.
• PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): Renowned for its strength, chemical resistance, and ease of installation, PVC membranes are ideal for restaurants and facilities with rooftop grease exhausts. They also offer excellent fire resistance and energy efficiency.
• EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer): Often called “rubber roofing,” EPDM is recognized for its outstanding durability, flexibility, and resistance to UV and weathering. With a track record spanning over 50 years, EPDM roofs are a proven solution for commercial properties.
• Metal Roofing:
• While not strictly flat, low-slope metal roofs are increasingly popular for commercial buildings seeking a modern look and exceptional longevity. Metal systems are fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and require minimal maintenance.
• Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF):
• SPF roofs provide seamless, highly insulative protection that conforms to any roof shape. They are ideal for improving energy efficiency and sealing out water, though they require professional installation and periodic recoating.
