MENUMENU
Also known as EPDM is a synthetic rubber roofing material that is commonly used on low slope buildings. This type of roofing comes in sheets of rubber that are 45-60 mil thick, that are lapped, and adhered together. Sometimes it is laid loose and covered with gravel ballast or it is adhered to the underlying insulation. The material is typically black, and therefore subject to thermal shock. Additionally, rubber absorbs the Infrared heat rays of the sun, running up cooling costs. The rubber also absorbs the UV rays which accelerates deterioration, causing it to shrink and pull apart at the seams. It is crucial to keep in mind that gravel ballast makes it difficult, if not impossible to find and repair leaks in the roof.
The Advantage Systems Commercial Roofing System offered by ACR1.COM Commercial Roofing is a Seamless and Highly Reflective. The roofing system is one piece, without any seams, or laps. The application rate of our roof material is typically 3-4 times thicker than rubber roofing systems. The added thickness provides extra protection from damage caused by the roof traffic of HVAC maintenance personnel.
Our Seamless roofing systems are manufactured right on your building. This process allows our roofing system to be custom fitted to your penetrations and wall flashings. Other roofing systems must be cut and seamed at penetrations & wall flashings. Seam adhesives are your total line of protection, when they fail you have leaks at the seams. The Advantage Systems commercial roofing system is one piece, no seams, and no seam failure.
The thickness of our roofing material is typically 3-4 times the thickness of our competitors. The top coating of an SPF roof that prevents water penetration is 20-30 mil. The Advantage Systems Roofing System has at least three layers of protection of at least 143 mil many times well over 200 mil of water penetration protection. With this added thickness, the roof has greater protection against items falling onto or thrown onto the roof. The roof is also protected against maintenance damage that can be caused by metal screws or casings. It will also remain flexible to the movement of the roofing structure to prevent damage.
