This means the contractors you choose should be experienced in all manner of industrial roofing projects and possess an understanding that enables them to minimize any possible loss and disruptions to normal productions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Below are some of the typical roofing systems and services you can get from an <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">industrial roofing company Basingstoke<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<h2><strong>EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) Roofing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">This roofing system is economical for many industrial and commercial applications. Thanks to large sheet widths, EPDM roofing provides significantly lower installation costs compared to the other roofing systems hence the preferred choice for large scale applications. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Among the benefits of EPDM roofing include high wind resistance, low temperature flexibility, long life expectancies, and superior resistance to extreme heat and fire conditions. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>PVC Roofing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">This is an ideal system not just for industrial roof, but also commercial and residential. PVC roofing is easier to maintain, reliable, environmental friendly, and doesn\u2019t cost much to install. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">In terms of structure, PVC roofing consists of 3 layers; a PVC polymer base, a polyester reinforced fabric at the center, and a thermoplastic PVC top ply. PVCs are more resistant to tears, punctures, and impacts which contribute to the durability of these roofing systems. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Among the benefits, you will reap from PVC roofing include ease of maintenance, <a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/the-benefits-of-solar-roofing-for-your-home\/\">energy<\/a> efficiency, chemical and wind resistance, as well as durability and reliability. PVC roofs carry the much-coveted Energy Star rating. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Thermoplastic (TPO) Roofing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">TPO roofing comprises three layers; a thermoplastic polymer base, a polyester reinforced fabric center, and a strong thermoplastic top ply. Compared to other single ply membranes, TPO roofing systems are resistant to tears, punctures, and impacts. They are suitable for both flat and slope roof systems. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Metal Roofing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/metal-roofing-for-your-home\/\">Metal roofing<\/a> is an exceptional alternative to the traditional <a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/tile-roofing-vs-shingles-which-is-the-better-choice-for-your-home\/\">shingles<\/a> in terms of aesthetic appeal and life expectancy. They come in a wide range of colors, they are durable, and lightweight. While it is true that the upfront installation costs for metal roofs systems are typically higher, they will last you for a long time thus recovering your cost. Metal roofing is extremely reflective and qualifies for various incentive programs under the Energy Star Roof Products Program run by EPA. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Shingle Installation<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">If you want to protect your roof and extend its life, shingles will give you that opportunity. It comes in a variety of materials such as metal, <a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/discover-the-top-construction-materials\/\">wood<\/a>, asphalt, slate, and ceramic. Among the advantages of shingles include compatibility with steep slopes, extended warranties, and economical cost. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Typically, <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">new build roofing contractors<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\"> package their services in different ways depending on the customer base they are attracting. That notwithstanding, there are certain roofing services you should expect from these contractors and amongst them are:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst\" style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol;\"><span style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\">\u00b7<span style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Low slope roofing \u2013 This roofing service requires skilled roofing professionals because of its vulnerability to structural integrity and water tightness compromises. Most low slope roofing is done using PVC roofing, TPO roofing, EPDM roofing, and metal roofing. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle\" style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol;\"><span style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\">\u00b7<span style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Flat roof systems \u2013Just like low slope roofing, flat roofing requires the expertise and experience of professionals if it is to be watertight and structurally viable. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle\" style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol;\"><span style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\">\u00b7<span style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Infrared thermography \u2013 If the roofing system of your business or industrial application suffers from poor insulation, leaks, or heat loss, you need an infrared thermography test to identify and isolate the source of the leaks for fixing. This is usually done using thermal imaging equipment. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpLast\" style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: -.25in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol;\"><span style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\">\u00b7<span style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">Tapered roof insulation \u2013If you want to help insulate flat roof decks and give them positive drainage, try out tapered roof insulation. This solution can prolong the lifespan of your roof as well as eliminate potential load bearing issues. You can apply tapered roof insulation to both reroofing and new construction projects. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';\">It doesn\u2019t matter the kind of material that makes your roofs, poor maintenance can erode all the benefits. It is therefore important for you to have regular inspections and where need be, repairs and replacements so that your roof can serve you for a long time. <a name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a>Realtytimes<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you are building an industrial complex or simply renovating an existing structure, having a clear &hellip; <a title=\"Understanding Industrial Roofing Systems and Services\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/understanding-industrial-roofing-systems-and-services\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Understanding Industrial Roofing Systems and Services<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":762,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[10771],"tags":[2890,818,686],"class_list":["post-761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-building-and-construction-materials","tag-construction","tag-real","tag-roofing"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/new_build_roofs_1.jpg?fit=400%2C267&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=761"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":126577,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761\/revisions\/126577"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/762"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=761"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=761"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=761"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
