What is single-ply roofing?

Single-ply roofing is wide width sheeting meant for low slope roofs such as on commercial buildings.

TAG Roofing and Exteriors offers three types of single-ply roofing. These prefabricated membranes are manufactured in a factory for quality control to meet your unique low-slope project application requirements.

Single-ply roofs have far fewer seams than asphalt rolled roof systems and do not require dangerous torches or hot asphalt for installation.

MORE SINGLE-PLY ROOFING DETAILS:

  • These commercial roofing systems can be installed with multiple isolation boards under the membrane, which can improve the R-Value and lower energy costs.
  • Typical commercial construction involves a low-slope roof. Our single-ply roofing is designed to allow water to pool without leaking and causing damage.
  • These boards can also be purchased with an engineered pitch on the top side and flat bottom. This makes it possible to transform a flat roof into one with a pitch, which will assist with water management
