Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the most common questions about tpo roofing systems for savannah & coastal georgia in Savannah.
How long does a TPO roof last in Savannah?
A properly installed TPO roof lasts 20-30 years in Savannah's climate. The key factors are membrane thickness (we recommend 60-80 mil for coastal Georgia), proper seam welding, and adequate insulation. Regular inspections extend lifespan significantly.
Is TPO better than EPDM for flat roofs?
For Savannah, yes. TPO's white reflective surface reduces cooling costs significantly compared to black EPDM. TPO's heat-welded seams are also stronger than EPDM's glued seams. However, EPDM is more flexible in extreme cold β not a concern in Coastal Georgia.
What thickness TPO do you recommend?
We recommend 60-mil TPO minimum for commercial buildings and 80-mil for high-traffic roofs or buildings with rooftop equipment. Thicker membranes resist punctures and weathering better in Savannah's UV-intense environment.
Can TPO be installed over an existing flat roof?
In many cases, yes. TPO can be installed over one existing roof layer if the deck is in good condition. This saves on tear-off costs and reduces waste. We inspect the existing roof structure before recommending overlay vs. full replacement.
