PVC roofing

Pliability, Durability, and Recyclability

An increasingly popular roofing material for commercial applications, PVC membrane roofs—when properly installed—provide facilities with durability, strength and energy efficiency. PVC roofing gets its name from the thermoplastic material from which it is made—polyvinyl chloride. PVC roofing sheets are inherently flexible, yet strong and puncture resistant.

Whether you’re looking to repair your existing PVC roofing or are considering it for a brand new facility, here’s what you need to know about PVC membrane roofs:

Durability and strength

Proper installation techniques

Green building considerations

PVC membrane roofing is known for its durability and strength. Notably, PVC roofing sheets are perfect for high traffic commercial low slope or flat roofs, as the material remains puncture resistant and flexible, even in the most extreme temperatures. And, because the seams are secured through heat-welding, PVC membrane roofs are highly resistant to leaks.

PVC roofing comes in manufactured sheets, usually ranging from 6 to 12 feet wide. Before applying PVC roofing sheets, your roofing contractor will install underlayment to the roofing deck. Or, some PVC membrane roofs come with a fleece backing, reducing installation time.  There are three main techniques for installing PVC roofing sheets: fully-adhered installation, mechanically fastening the sheets, or ballasting them with rocks. Regardless of the technique used, your PVC roofing should be fastened tightly at all perimeters to prevent the membrane from pulling away from the edges during high wind conditions.

Your licensed roofing contractor will guide you toward the best PVC roofing installation technique for your facility, and can also help you navigate fire safety, building codes, and international standards.

Sustainability is key for commercial projects these days, and the big certification you need to get in order for your building to be considered ”sustainable” is the LEED v4 certification, which is more focused on the use of recyclable, sustainable materials than previous LEED iterations.PVC roofing can easily contribute toward your LEED v4 certification, as PVC roofing sheets can be made with recyclable materials, and can often be recycled at the end of its service life. Additionally, the white and gray varieties of PVC membrane roofing are UV and temperature resistant, which can contribute to the overall energy efficiency rating of your facility. Also important, the temperature control provided to your facility by PVC roofing can lower your utility bills.

What Our Customers Say

Wildwood was one out of the couple companies I was looking into to complete my roofing project I decided to go with them because of the good reviews I had seen and I was not disappointed they had some minor issues but everything was taken care of in a reasonable time frame I would recommend them again considering I have had way more issues with companies prior the rep kept in communication with me until the job was completed and closed out they offer 10 year warranty and that was another plus thanks Wildwood for helping me through the process

Lancer Hodges

I am very happy with the job done and how quickly Elliot responded to my questions. He is very professional and courteous as well as the crews that completed the work. The damage to my home was caused by a widespread storm so there were many customers who were in the same boat as me, so the work took a little longer than expected, but most critical work to weatherize my home was completed first which I truly appreciated. Highly recommend.

L MCCREADY

Very nice roof, great customer service.

Monique Harryvan

Overall a good experience, not complete yet but we’ll finish up soon.Kyle, the initial contact was great. He took care of managing the project and my insurance very well.The installation was ok. They tripped the power when I wasn’t home so that stalled the project.The install caused a leak but I’m sure that happens. They came out the next day to correct the leak.When i say not complete is because I’m waiting for a followup to repair the damaged ceiling.

Nickolas Mills

Wildwood roofing did a great job on our new roof and gutters. They handled everything with our insurance and made the whole process seamless.

Edward Geiler
