TPO roofing is known for its durability. Designed to withstand the wear and tear of nature, this type of roofing is ideal for climates prone to weather extremes, like Albuquerque. A TPO roof has a life span of 10-20 years with routine maintenance. Its ability to protect against dirt, mold, and debris accumulation.

Easy Roof Installation
Modern TPO membranes use wide, lightweight sheets. The weight and size result in less time spent installing a TPO roof, with fewer seams involved.
This roofing membrane is installed in one of two ways- mechanically or with the fully adhered system. When mechanically attached, the membrane is attached only to the seam areas. The membrane is fully adhered to the underneath substrate with the fully adhered system, creating a tighter fit.
