FAQs

SPF (Spray Polyurethane Foam)

What is SPF roofing?

SPF is a spray-applied foam that expands into a seamless, solid layer, providing both insulation and waterproofing in one system that is so tough, you can walk over it when it dries to it’s solid finish.

How long does an SPF roof last?

With proper maintenance and recoating every 10–15 years, SPF roofs can last 20–30 years or more.

Is SPF roofing energy efficient?

Yes—SPF has one of the highest R-values per inch, significantly reducing heating and cooling costs and saving money over time.

Can SPF be applied over my existing roof?

In most cases, yes. SPF is excellent for retrofits, minimizing tear-off costs, work disruptions, and landfill waste.

How durable is SPF against weather?

SPF is highly resistant to wind uplift, hail, and ponding water due to its monolithic, seamless structure.

Is SPF roofing sustainable?

SPF is highly resistant to wind uplift, hail, and ponding water due to its monolithic, seamless structure.

What maintenance does SPF roofing require?

Annual inspections and periodic recoating keep SPF systems in top shape and extend their life.

Is SPF good for complex roof designs?

Yes—SPF self-levels and conforms to irregular shapes, making it ideal for roofs with lots of penetrations or slopes.

Is SPF waterproof?

Absolutely. Our closed-cell SPF creates a fully adhered, seamless barrier that prevents water intrusion.

How long does installation take?

SPF installation is typically fast and minimally disruptive compared to other roofing styles, especially on roofs with difficult access or layout. SPF is especially a great solution to “busy” rooftops with lots of penetrations and/or skylights, air units, etc.

TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin)

What is TPO roofing?

TPO is a single-ply membrane known for its reflective surface, flexibility, and resistance to UV, heat, and chemical exposure.

How long does a TPO roof last?

TPO roofs generally last 15–25 years depending on thickness, installation quality, and upkeep.

Is TPO roofing energy efficient?

Yes, TPO’s white reflective surface helps reduce heat absorption, lowering cooling costs in warm climates.

Can TPO be installed over an existing roof?

Yes, TPO can often be installed as a re-cover system, depending on the condition of the existing roof and local codes.

How does TPO hold up in extreme weather?

TPO performs well in high heat and UV exposure and is resistant to chemical damage and algae growth.

Is TPO considered a sustainable roofing solution?

TPO is recyclable and contributes to energy efficiency, helping buildings meet green standards like LEED.

What kind of maintenance does TPO require?

TPO requires routine inspections to check seams, edges, and flashing, ensuring continued performance.

Is TPO suitable for large commercial buildings?

Yes—TPO is especially effective for wide, flat roof decks and is popular in big-box retail and warehouse projects.

Does TPO roofing resist punctures and tears?

Yes, especially thicker membranes (60–80 mil), but foot traffic protection is still recommended in high-use areas.

How long does TPO installation take?

Installation time depends on roof size and complexity, but TPO is efficient to install, especially on open, flat surfaces.
