PVC Options and Features

A new PVC roof installation for your restaurant in Northern Colorado has several benefits. PVC roofs are energy efficient, very durable, fire and grease resistant, comes in a variety of colors, and lasts around 20 years.

Today, there are more PVC roofing options available then ever before. IB Roof Systems, for example, offers PVC membranes in 8 different colors, including white, tan, brown, red, grey, and green. Depending upon the manufacturer, there are either 20 or 30 year warranties available. Most PVC manufacturers offer membranes in 50, 60, and 80 mil thicknesses. Widths range from 3′ to 10′ with lengths ranging from 60′ to 90′.

If properly installed, all pvc roofing products offer fire, wind, and chemical resistance, holds-up to standing water, and is energy efficient. Aside from your standard PVC membrane, which is already a great product, there’s fleece-backed PVC, which is more resistant to tears and punctures.

PVC Manufacturers

When shopping for a new PVC roof, there are several points to consider. First of all, not all PVC roofing manufacturers are the same. We only work with the above mentioned because of their excellent products, service, and warranties. They make great commercial roofing products and they stand behind them with great customer service and warranties.

What’s more, they’ve all been around the block. Mule-Hide, for example, has been making roofing products for over 100 years. Needless to say, they know what they’re doing and they make excellent single-membrane roofing products.

New Restaurant Roof

If you need a new restaurant roof in Colorado, PVC is your only choice since it is the only product that’s resistant to grease, animal fats, oils, and fire. (Did you know a PVC roof will self-extinguish once the source or fuel of the fire is gone?) That said, you have several PVC options, between colors, reinforced backing, and ballast (weighted-down with rocks).

If your new roof won’t be visible from the street, maybe you aren’t concerned about appearance. However, you’re probably concerned about your electric bill. A light color, such as white, light grey, or tan will help lower your utility bill during the Summer, since those lighter colors will reflect heat away from your building. A dark color, such as black or dark grey, will absorb heat and help drive your cooling cost up, especially during the Summer months.

However, a dark-colored roof will help warm-up your building during the cold Winter months. Here in Northern Colorado, we have more warm months than cold, so a lighter colored roof is often recommended.
