How to Tell When You Need a New PVC Roof or Repair Services
After years of wear and tear, PVC roofing systems begin to break down, becoming less energy-efficient and prone to leaking. American winters are especially harsh on northern American roofing systems, because these roofs become more brittle as they age. Extremely cold temperatures and foot traffic can cause the PVC roof membrane to shatter. This problem occurs more frequently in PVC roofs that are not reinforced, especially those made up of gravel ballasted membranes. If your existing roof is reinforced with polyester or glass, the roof will be significantly less likely to shatter.
Roofed Right can help you determine whether or not your PVC roof is at risk of shattering by looking at:
- Discoloration in areas of the membrane that are exposed to UV-light
- Wrinkling near and around drain flashings or soil pipe bases
- Puncturing of the membrane
- Membrane has elliptical tears
- Non-reinforced PVC roof membranes have been known to shatter in roofs over 10 years old in temperatures of only 20°F.
How to Prevent PVC Roof Failures
- If you already have a non-reinforced PVC roof installed, you can avoid shattering by prohibiting foot traffic in weather below 50°F. The membranes have significantly lower flexibility in cold weather, making it easier to break.
- Have Roofed Right inspect your PVC roof yearly, especially when the weather begins to warm up. We will check to for signs of wear including discoloration, shrinkage and membrane tears.
