"Great customer service and expertise on the project."

"We had a bad flat roof, on one of our commercial buildings in West Allis, and a new tenant moving into a space in January. We needed to insure the new tenant that there would not be any water issues until a complete new roof was installed once weather permitted. R&R was able to repair the problem, and expedited the installation of the entire new roof. We had numerous bids for this project and RR was very competitive, and even included work that was not in the original bid as it was omitted by them on the initial estimate.

Great customer service and expertise on the project.

Big Thanks."

Our Single-Ply Installation Process (5 Steps) 

The installation process for single-ply roofing systems varies depending on the specific type of roofing material and the method of installation, but generally involves the following steps:

  1. Preparation: The roof deck is inspected and prepared for installation, including any necessary repairs, cleaning, and priming.
  2. Membrane Installation: The single-ply membrane material is rolled out onto the roof deck, and secured in place using one of several installation methods. Fully adhered systems use an adhesive to bond the membrane directly to the roof deck, while mechanically attached systems use fasteners to secure the membrane to the deck. Ballasted systems involve laying the membrane over the roof deck and then weighing it down with gravel or pavers.
  3. Seaming: Seams are created where two sections of the membrane meet, and must be sealed to create a watertight seal. This is typically done using a hot-air welding technique or chemical adhesive.
  4. Flashing Installation: Flashing is installed around roof penetrations such as vents, pipes, and HVAC units to ensure a watertight seal.
  5. Trim and Finish: The roofing system is finished with trim and other details, including drip edges, termination bars, and other components to ensure proper drainage and protect against wind uplift.
