We use the latest technology and techniques to keep your roof in optimal condition.
One of the best options for commercial roofing is PVC roofing. PVC stands for Polyvinyl Chloride, a synthetic plastic polymer that has many applications in various industries. PVC roofing is made of durable and flexible sheets of PVC material that are attached to the roof deck with fasteners or adhesives.
PVC roofing has many advantages over other types of roofing, such as metal, asphalt, or rubber. In this article, we will explain the basics of PVC roofing, its key benefits, and why Silicoat Roofing is your best choice for commercial PVC roofing solutions.
The Basics of PVC Roofing
What is PVC Roofing?
PVC roofing is a type of single-ply membrane roofing that consists of thin layers of PVC material. The PVC material is reinforced with polyester or fiberglass for added strength and stability. The top layer of the PVC membrane is usually coated with a reflective material that helps to deflect sunlight and heat.
PVC roofing is one of the most popular types of single-ply membrane roofing, along with TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) and EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer). However, PVC roofing has some unique features that make it stand out from the rest.
One of the main features of PVC roofing is its fire resistance. PVC is inherently fire-resistant and does not support combustion. This means that PVC roofing can prevent the spread of fire and reduce the risk of damage to your building and its contents.
Another feature of PVC roofing is its chemical resistance. PVC can withstand exposure to various chemicals, such as acids, oils, greases, and solvents. This makes PVC roofing ideal for buildings that handle or store hazardous substances, such as factories, warehouses, or laboratories.
How Does PVC Roofing Work?
PVC roofing creates a seamless and waterproof barrier over your roof deck. The installation process involves laying down the PVC sheets over the roof surface and joining them together with heat-welded seams. The heat-welded seams create a strong and durable bond that prevents water leakage and air infiltration.
PVC roofing can be installed on any type of roof structure, but it works best for flat or low-sloped roofs. This is because flat or low-sloped roofs (see examples here) see a lot more water accumulation and ponding, which can cause damage to the roof deck and lead to mold growth and rot.

Advantages of Commercial PVC Roofing
Let’s talk about the benefits.
Longevity
PVC roofing is one of the longest-lasting types of roofing available. Depending on the quality and thickness of the material, PVC roofing can last up to 30 years or more with proper maintenance. PVC roofing also resists cracking, shrinking, tearing, and puncturing, which can extend its lifespan even further.
Energy Efficiency
Keeping money in our pockets is always a good thing. The reflective coating on the PVC membrane can reflect up to 85% of the solar radiation, which lowers the temperature of your roof and your building’s interior. This reduces the need for cooling systems and lowers your carbon footprint.
Durability
PVC roofing can withstand anything Mother Nature can throw your way. Harsh weather conditions, such as strong winds, heavy rains, hailstorms, snowstorms, and extreme temperatures – PVC roofing is a great deterent. PVC roofing also resists UV rays, which can cause fading and deterioration of other types of roofing materials. Additionally, PVC roofing can handle high levels of foot traffic, so you can enjoy time with family and friends without worrying about the structure of the home or office.
Low Maintenance
PVC roofing requires minimal maintenance compared to other types of roofing.There’s no need for painting, coating, or sealing to maintain its appearance and functionality.
