EPDM

EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane for flat roofs applications, widely used in low-slope buildings. Its two main ingredients, ethylene and propylene, are derived from oil and natural gas. It comes in a few different thicknesses and two colors: white and black. The methods of fastening include: fully adhered system, mechanically attached and ballasted. EPDM system is significantly less expensive than TPO, it can last up to 25 years, it is much more durable and it performs better in colder climates than TPO. However the method of fastening the seams on EPDM roofs may not be as strong as TPO (adhesive versus hot air welding), so there is more maintenance required in the long run on EPDM than TPO.

TPO

Within the last few years we have expanded our flat roofing systems selection to include a TPO single-ply membranes. It’s an excellent, cost-effective system for larger commercial applications, perfect for low-slope roofing, installed in a single membrane without multiple layers. The membrane can be attached to the roof mechanically, adhered or plate bonded. Flashing and seams are usually done with a hot-air welding equipment. The membrane is grease resistant and it receives high wind testing rates. TPO comes in various colors and usually with a 30 year manufacturer warranty. There are a several examples of projects w built using TPO that you can find in our commercial section of the portfolio.

CARPENTRY

Carpentry is often part of the ‘first fix' of timber components in the construction of roofs, floors, walls and other timber-framed constructions. It is also often part of ‘second fix' works, such as the construction of skirting boards, architraves, doors, and so on. Carpenters may also required to prepare shuttering (formwork into which concrete is poured), building stairs, installing door and window frames, and so on.
