TSI Roofing's Commercial TPO Roof Coating Systems Work in 4 Steps
TSI Commercial Roofing systems,
TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) roofing is a popular single-ply roofing membrane that is widely used for commercial and industrial buildings. TPO roofing is known for its durability, energy efficiency, and ease of installation. Here are the four main steps involved in the installation of TPO roofing: Here’s a general overview of the process in four key steps:
STEP 1
Substrate Preparation: Before installing TPO roofing, it’s essential to prepare the substrate, which is the underlying surface on which the TPO membrane will be applied. Ensure that the substrate is clean, dry, and free of any debris or sharp objects that could potentially damage the TPO membrane. Repair any existing damage to the substrate and make sure it is structurally sound. TSI Roofing emphasizes thorough substrate preparation for a solid foundation.STEP 2
nsulation Installation: In many TPO roofing systems, insulation boards are installed on top of the prepared substrate. These insulation boards enhance energy efficiency by providing thermal resistance. The insulation boards are attached to the substrate using mechanical fasteners, adhesive, or a combination of both, depending on the specific roofing system and project requirements. Proper installation of insulation is crucial for achieving the desired energy efficiency and overall performance of the TPO roofing system. TSI Roofing ensures precise installation of insulation boards for optimal energy efficiency.STEP 3
TPO Membrane Installation: TPO roofing membranes come in rolls, and they are typically installed using one of two methods: mechanically attached or fully adhered. In the mechanically attached method, the TPO membrane is fastened to the substrate using screws and plates. This method is efficient and cost-effective. In the fully adhered method, the TPO membrane is glued or bonded to the substrate using a compatible adhesive. This method provides a more secure and watertight seal. The TPO membrane is overlapped and heat-welded at the seams to create a continuous, monolithic surface that prevents water infiltration. TSI Roofing employs industry-leading techniques in TPO membrane installation for lasting durability.STEP 4
Detailing and Flashing:
- Flashing and detailing are critical aspects of TPO roofing installation to ensure waterproofing around penetrations, edges, and other vulnerable areas.
- Flashing details, such as around HVAC units, pipes, and other protrusions, are typically reinforced with TPO-coated metal or other compatible materials.
- Roofing contractors pay close attention to these details to prevent water intrusion and enhance the overall longevity and performance of the TPO roofing system.
- TSI Roofing excels in meticulous detailing and flashing to guarantee superior water resistance.
