For Buildings With Asphalt Shingled Roofs, Can They Be Covered By Metal?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The answer is yes, as long as they meet certain criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The deck of the existing asphalt roof must be sound and strong structurally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. On that roof, there can be only one layer of asphalt shingles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. It\u2019s imperative that systems for ventilation are installed with correct and fitting underlayment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As for why this metal roofing Charlotte may be a good solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 It eliminates the manhours and labor cost of removing the shingles that are currently there and toting them away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Another benefit is that the removed shingles will not end up in a landfill creating more untreatable solid waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 The time to install the new metal roofing Charlotte will be dramatically reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are seriously considering metal roofing Charlotte, an expert evaluation of feasibility from our Charlotte roofing experts is critically important. If not installed properly, accommodating the criteria stated above, trapping residual moisture and negating sufficient ventilation may result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Got It \u2013 What About More Conventional Charlotte Flat Roof Installations And Servicing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the reason \u2013 whatever the season \u2013 Bumble Roofing is here to answer your questions, install superior roofing solutions, and expertly service any need you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having our roots in shingled roofs<\/a>, as well as flat roofs<\/a>, they require different thinking and material applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roofs that are not flat and have a slope are assisted by gravity in facilitating the runoff of rain water. Roofs that are flat must be able to deal with the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Eliminating the residual collection of ponding rainwater<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 They must have a membrane underlayment that provides constant waterproofing ability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 And they must be deliberately engineered and installed for optimal drainage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EPDM Roofs And TPO Roofing \u2013 What\u2019s The Difference?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

EPDM Roofs<\/strong>: Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer can be effectively used on both a flat roof as well as on a low slope roof. For outstanding performance and durability, EPDM roofs are more typically installed in black, but a white option is also available. Made from synthetic rubber material, EPDM roofs are typically installed in membrane sheets that are large in size to reduce the appearance of seams. As for our professional installation, they can be ballasted, mechanically fastened or adhered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EPDM roofs are gaining popularity today as they feature great durability from 20 years to more than 30 years. They are also highly resistant to ultraviolet sun rays and ozone variances. Another huge benefit is their affordability in covering and protecting surface areas that are large.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We typically install and service EPDM roofs throughout Charlotte warehouses, commercial structures and homes that have flat roof additions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

TPO Roofing<\/strong>: Thermoplastic Polyolefin sounds as strong and durable as its name implies. Like Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, TPO roofing is a membrane material installed in a single ply. As an aesthetic alternative to EPDM, TPO roofing is installed in large white sheets that reflect the sun admirably. The seams are welded with heat instead of adhesives for greater strength and performance. In addition to resistance from the sun, TPO roofing resists the growth of algae and the accumulation of dirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The installation of TPO roofing is gaining popularity here in Charlotte, especially in commercial setting, as it creates savings in energy due to its sun reflectiveness properties. And with its seams welded together for permanence, leaks are much less likely to occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The zenith of roofing curb appeal and excellent durability, for new installations or additions, metal roofing Charlotte is your best bet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For reasonably affordable roofing solutions to cover exceptionally large flat surfaces, EPDM roofs are the way to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you desire technology that is current and in demand and offers strong efficiency in energy savings, TPO roofing may very well be your best option.
