WHAT IS TPO ROOFING?

Understanding TPO Membrane Systems

Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) roofing is a single-ply membrane that has become the industry standard for commercial flat roofs. Its white, heat-reflective surface makes it ideal for Austin's intense sun and heat.

Expert Installation = Long-Term Performance

Hot-Air Welding Technology

Unlike adhesive methods, we use hot-air welding to create seams that are actually stronger than the membrane itself. This prevents leaks and ensures decades of protection.

Proper Insulation Integration

We install polyiso or EPS insulation boards beneath your TPO membrane to maximize R-value and energy savings while maintaining proper drainage.

Critical Flashing Details

Proper flashing around HVAC units, vents, and roof penetrations is where most roofs fail. Our team specializes in these critical details.
