FAQs
What is an industrial roofer?
An industrial roofer is a specialist contractor or worker who can plan, install, maintain and repair roofs on a large scale. The most common are commercial buildings like factories, logistics centres, warehouses, retail units and distribution centres. It is a job that requires specific training and certification in working from heights and using equipment like a scissor lift, for instance. As well as this, it requires correct practices with a variety of materials that will be used and ensuring that these commercial roofs can stand the test of time.
How long do industrial roofs last?
On average, industrial roofing tends to last between 20 and 40+ years. The two key aspects that can influence this timeframe are the materials the roof is made from and any environmental factors.
Metals like steel, aluminium or copper can last anywhere from 25 to 50+ years. Plastics, rubber and other composites like TPO, PVC or EPDM can last an average of 20 to 30 years. These times can change if the industrial roofing is subject to excessive UV rays, harsh weather, various impacts or the pooling of water from improper drainage.
What types of materials are best for industrial buildings?
The best materials to choose for industrial roofing are beholden to durability, insulation needs and budget. Popular options include steel and aluminium cladding for strength and weather resistance, single-ply membranes for flat roofs and composite panels for excellent thermal performance. Metal roofing systems are widely used due to their longevity and low maintenance, and high-performance coatings and insulated systems can also be implemented to improve energy efficiency and extend roof lifespan. It is best to speak to an expert to find out what will work for you.
