This measure will ensure that there is a clean and smooth surface on which to place the TPO membrane to avoid future problems.

Membrane Installation and Attachment

Next, high-quality TPO sheets are rolled out, which are allowed to relax and then accurately aligned. Mechanical screws and plates, complete adhesion, and ballasting are all used depending on your roof.

Edges are fixed and penetrations (vents, drains) are described with detail to ensure integrity and wind resistance.

Seam Welding, Flashing, and Quality Check

The advanced tools are used to heat-weld seams to create strong and permanent bonds. Complete waterproofing is done using flashings around edges, penetrations and parapets.
