1. Single-Ply Roofing (TPO, PVC & EPDM Roofing):
Single-ply roofing is a popular choice for flat roofs, available in different thicknesses. It is lightweight, fire-resistant, wind-resistant, and can resist chemicals. However, it might not be the most aesthetically pleasing option and is vulnerable to high foot traffic.2. Modified Bitumen (Rubber Roofing):
Modified bitumen is an evolution in flat roofing, providing more durability with multiple layers. However, this increased durability comes at a higher cost.3. Built-Up Roof (Hot Tar Roofing):
Built-up roofs involve layering plies of fiberglass rolls and hot tar. They last 20-30 years and are suitable for high foot traffic areas but require a more significant investment.4. Metal Roofing (Standing Seam & Screw-Down):
Metal roofs offer curb appeal, longevity, and high wind resistance. Standing seam roofs can last for over 50 years but are more costly. Screw-down roofs are economical but require more maintenance.5. Asphalt Shingles (Upgraded Shingles):
Asphalt shingles, while widely used in residential roofing, are also suitable for commercial buildings. Upgraded shingles offer better wind protection and curb appeal, but they have a shorter lifespan compared to other materials.
