Beyond their aesthetic appeal, cool roof coatings significantly enhance the durability of your roof. Depending on the size and condition of your roof, applying a cool coating can save your business up to 50% compared to the cost of installing an entirely new roof and we have Cool Roofs that have 20-year non-prorated material and labor warranties backed by Firestone / Genflex, Holcim Gaco, ASC, Carlisle / Mulehide and other leading roofing manufacturers.

Tax Benefit:
Some TWM commercial customers write off coating applications as
roof repairs and maintenance rather than pro-rating the cost over the life of the roof system – check with your CPA.
Improved Comfort:
Keeps the building interior cooler, enhancing comfort for occupants.
Thermoplastic Olefin (TPO) Roofing TPO roofing systems are known as the gold standard in commercial roofing due to their energy efficiency and ease of installation. They are single-ply membranes composed of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene rubber. TPO offers exceptional warranties and proven performance even under the most complex and poorly designed commercial flat roof. TWM Roofing is a certified Firestone and Carlisle TPO contractor providing the ultimate reliability backed by Firestone and Carlisle.
Energy Efficiency:
TPO membranes reflect UV rays, reducing cooling costs and improving energy efficiency. We can install R5.6 to R23.6 rated insulation in our TPO roof systems providing unparalleled energy efficiency.
Durability:
TPO roofs are resistant to tears, punctures, and impact damage, making them a durable option for commercial buildings and Firestone TPO has no exclusion for ponding water when installed by a Firestone certified roofing contractor like TWM Roofing.
Environmental Friendliness:
TPO is 100% recyclable, making it an environmentally responsible choice.
Built-Up Roofing (BUR) Built-up roofing (BUR) is one of the oldest and most reliable commercial roofing systems. It consists of multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics. These layers are applied in an alternating pattern and finished with a top layer of aggregate or coating.

The multiple layers provide excellent protection against harsh weather conditions, including heavy rain, snow, and high winds.
Thermal Performance:
The insulating layers in BUR systems contribute to energy efficiency by maintaining indoor temperatures.
Modified Bitumen Roofing Modified bitumen roofing is an evolution of BUR, incorporating polymer-modified bitumen. This roofing system is applied in multiple layers, often with a torch, hot asphalt, or cold adhesive.
Flexibility:
Modified bitumen is highly flexible, making it ideal for buildings that experience significant temperature fluctuations.
Ease of Installation:
The installation process is straightforward and can be completed relatively quickly, reducing labor costs.
Durability:
With proper maintenance, modified bitumen roofs can last between 20 to 25 years.

Weather Resistance:
EPDM is highly resistant to UV radiation, ozone, and extreme weather conditions.

Longevity:
Metal roofs can last between 40 to 70 years, significantly outlasting other roofing materials.
