Single-Ply Membrane – Valley City, ND
Single-ply roofing systems, as their name suggests, consist of a single waterproofing layer installed between the roof and the elements above. The layer can be entirely attached, ballasted (with rocks), or mechanically fastened to an insulating layer.
These systems are usually made up of three or four major components:
* The insulation layer, which allows for flat roofs to have a low slope.
* The fastening mechanism
* Watertight terminations and flashings around the roof’s perimeter
* Welding, adhesives, and/or fasteners to join the layers
This is a good summary, but it certainly doesn’t cover all the bases. You can choose from a wide variety of single-ply systems, materials, and technologies to meet your specific requirements. What is the one characteristic they all share? One commonality is that each has a solitary roof membrane.

Benefits:
These roofs perform exceptionally well in chemical environments, which can quickly destroy less sturdy structures. This makes them a great choice for roofs in areas prone to acid rain, as well as those in commercial settings where grease and oil are frequently present. The single layer of these membranes makes them vulnerable to punctures from weights or machines, unlike their multilayer counterparts. A high-quality single-ply system will have an excellent foundation fabric that provides superior puncture resistance, even if it lacks the tough exteriors and redundant layers typical of multi-ply membranes.
Single-ply roofing membranes are easy to handle. This simplifies their installation in comparison to competing systems. When compared to building more complicated, built-up roofing systems, metal roofing has a much lower risk profile.
