Trusted Commercial Roofing Materials We Work With

TPO Roofing (Thermoplastic Polyolefin)

TPO is one of the most widely used commercial roofing systems in the U.S. due to its reflective properties and cost efficiency. It is especially popular on low-slope roofs and large-scale commercial buildings.

Benefits of TPO Roofing:

  • Highly energy efficient with UV-reflective white surfaces
  • Strong resistance to chemical exposure, ozone, and UV radiation
  • Heat-welded seams for enhanced waterproofing
  • Lightweight and flexible for faster installation

TPO is an ideal solution for office buildings, warehouses, and retail centers throughout the St. Louis area looking to reduce energy costs and extend roof performance.

EPDM Roofing (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer)

EPDM is a durable synthetic rubber roofing membrane known for its reliability in extreme weather conditions. It’s a great choice for buildings that need proven long-term protection.

Benefits of EPDM Roofing:

  • Excellent weather and UV resistance
  • Flexibility in hot and cold temperatures
  • Cost-effective and easy to repair
  • Typically black in color, which can aid in snow melt during winter months

EPDM is especially well-suited for buildings in Earth City and Chesterfield with large flat roofing areas needing a time-tested and resilient material.

Benefits of Commercial Roof Coatings:
