Roofing
At Lapnet Construction, we specialize in a variety of home renovation services, including roof installation and repair. A roof is essential for protecting your home or commercial property from the elements and regulating indoor temperatures. When it’s time to replace your roof, choosing the right material and ensuring proper installation is key to its longevity and performance.
BENEFITS OF ROOF INSTALLATION:
- Improved Protection
- Increased Energy Efficiency
- Enhanced Curb Appeal
- Higher Property Value
TYPES OF ROOFING
EPDM ROOFING
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a synthetic rubber roofing material ideal for commercial and industrial buildings. It’s durable, weather-resistant, and can last up to 50 years. EPDM comes in various thicknesses and widths, making it versatile and customizable. It’s also easy to install and maintain, offering a cost-effective roofing solution.
ΤΡΟ ROOFING
TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) is a single-ply roofing system known for its energy efficiency and durability. Made from a blend of rubber and plastic, TPO resists punctures, tears, and weathering. Its white color reflects sunlight, reducing heat absorption and lowering energy bills. TPO is easy to install, reducing labor costs, and can last up to 30 years with minimal maintenance.
COLD ROOFING
Cold roofing involves placing insulation above the ceiling to create a barrier between the indoor and outdoor environments. This design is ideal for conserving heat in colder climates like New York City. A cold roof helps reduce heat loss and improves energy efficiency.
TORCH DOWN ROOFING
Torch down roofing uses layers of modified bitumen, a type of asphalt enhanced with rubber or plastic polymers for increased durability and flexibility. The installation involves heating the material to bond it securely to the roof surface. This roofing is highly durable, lasting up to 20 years, and is resistant to water, fire, and UV radiation, making it suitable for flat or low-sloped roofs.
SHINGLE ROOFING
Shingle roofs are popular for residential buildings, especially in NYC suburbs and Long Island. They consist of overlapping shingles made from materials like asphalt, wood, metal, and slate. Asphalt shingles are affordable and commonly used, while wood and slate offer greater durability and aesthetic appeal. Shingle roofs provide excellent weather protection and can last up to 25 years or more, but they may require repairs from extreme weather. Regular maintenance and inspections can prolong their lifespan.
