What Are PVC Roofs?
PVC, short for polyvinyl chloride, is a type of plastic invented in the 1960s that is synthesized using chlorine and ethylene. It has a wide variety of applications, from healthcare to construction to automobile manufacturing. This versatile material is durable, flexible, lightweight, and chemical-resistant, making it an ideal roofing solution.
PVC roofs generally have three components: the top sheet, reinforcement scrim, and base sheet.
- Top sheet: This is the outermost layer. The thin sheet of white PVC, compounded with other elements, is exposed to the environment and protects the building from the elements.
- Reinforcement scrim: The middle layer, often made of anti-wicking polyester, reinforces and strengthens the roof.
- Base sheet: The innermost layer is another sheet of PVC, usually black, that contains plasticizers to increase flexibility and prevent tearing or breaking.
Why Choose a PVC Roof?
Compared to other roofing materials, PVC provides many significant advantages. It’s an excellent choice for flat or gently sloped roofs commonly found on industrial and commercial buildings.
TPO and EPDM are popular roofing membranes similar to PVC, with compositions including rubber. PVC tends to have better chemical and UV resistance and a longer lifespan than either of these options, so if durability and longevity are your goals, PVC is an ideal choice.
While metal roofs are strong and long-lasting, they are less cost-effective or insulative than PVC. PVC also has a clear advantage over asphalt shingles, which require more maintenance and repairs. Plus, PVC is incredibly lightweight, making it much easier to install than metal or asphalt roofing.
ADVANTAGES OF PVC ROOFS
-
Durability and Resistance
Thanks to their strength and resistance to tearing, PVC roofs can last 20 to 30 years with proper maintenance. The smooth plastic surface repels water, the welded seams provide wind resistance, and the UV-inhibiting properties reflect sunlight to keep your building cool. PVC is also known for its exceptional resistance to chemicals and fire. These roofs can withstand almost anything thrown at them, including fuels, grease, air conditioning coolants, and other harsh chemicals. PVC is inherently fire-resistant and does not facilitate combustion, making it a safe, reliable option for use in various industries. However, PVC roofs may not be suitable for all climates. Extremely cold and icy conditions can cause the membrane to shatter, so if your building is located in an area with harsh winters, it may be best to choose a different option. -
Environmental Benefits
Due to their reflective, UV-resistant nature, PVC roofs reflect sunlight back into the atmosphere before it has a chance to heat your building. This reduces reliance on HVAC solutions to keep cool in the summer, meaning less electricity used, lower utility bills, and a smaller environmental footprint. Plus, PVC roofing membranes can be recycled at the end of their lifespan. By opting for sustainable building practices, you’re keeping trash out of landfills and contributing to a happier, healthier planet for future generations. -
Low Maintenance Needs
PVC roofing is relatively hassle-free, with few maintenance tasks required. Plan regular inspections to examine the seams for signs of separation or damage, monitor the drainage systems, check for punctures and tears, and ensure water is not pooling on the surface. You’ll also need to clear debris every season to prevent leaves, branches, needles, and algae from trapping moisture and causing problems down the line. If you suspect your roof needs repairs, call the experts at LGND Roofing. We offer free inspections, so there’s no harm in having us check your roof just to be safe. If we find any issues, we can provide prompt, reliable repair services to get your roof back to normal in no time.
