Is TPO roofing good for Austin’s climate?

Yes. TPO’s reflective surface reduces heat absorption and can lower cooling costs. It is also highly resistant to UV exposure, which is critical in Texas summers.

How long does a TPO roof last?

A properly installed TPO roof typically lasts 15–25 years depending on membrane thickness, installation method, and maintenance schedule.

Can TPO be installed over an existing roof?

Yes. In many cases TPO can be installed over a single existing membrane as long as the substrate is sound and local building codes allow it.

Is TPO better than modified bitumen?

TPO is more energy-efficient and reflective, while modified bitumen offers stronger puncture resistance. Your building’s needs determine the best choice.

Types of TPO Roofing We Install

Fully Adhered TPO System

The membrane is glued directly to the insulation or deck, creating a smooth, tight finish with excellent wind resistance and energy efficiency.

Mechanically Attached TPO System

Sheets are fastened to the deck with screws and plates, then heat-welded at the seams. This method is cost-effective and ideal for larger roof areas.

Ballasted TPO System

The membrane is laid loosely and held in place with river rock or pavers. It installs quickly and works well on roofs that can support the added weight.
