The cold weather has arrived, and many business owners may
not have had the chance in the springtime to have flat roof repairs done. Many seek to have their roof repaired or installed before
the winter arrives, and while the concerns are understood, it's a misconception
that that a roof can only be repaired or installed during the months. Many
types of flat roofs can be installed in the winter: it's just like doing it in
the summer, except the weather is a bit chillier.
Certain types of flat roofing should not be installed during
the winter:
- Rubber Roofs (EPDM)
- Modified Bitumen
- Peal-n-Stick Flat Roof Products
Types of flat roofs that can be installed during the winter
include:
- PVC
- TPO
Those two are installed using hot-air welded seams instead
of adhesives (like the three above). Because of the cold weather, the adhesives
may not properly adhere to the surface, freeze and the chemical composition
will distort in one way or another, causing premature roofing failure.
