TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin) is the most-installed commercial roofing membrane in North America. Atlas Roofing installs TPO systems throughout University Heights on commercial buildings, multi-family properties, and large flat-roof structures.
In University Heights, our commercial roofing work centers on the Cedar Center area and similar properties — flat-roof systems (TPO, EPDM) and modified bitumen on retail, office, and small industrial buildings.
University Heights' housing stock is concentrated in 1920s-1950s, so most homes are now on their third or fourth roof — the original tongue-and-groove decking we find on tear-offs along Cedar Road and Warrensville Center is often warped at the eaves and needs partial sheathing replacement.
Steeper-pitched 1920s tudors near John Carroll have complex valley intersections that need careful step-flashing detail at every dormer transition.
Typical TPO life is 15-20 years. Higher-mil thicknesses (60 mil and up) reach the longer end of that range with proper maintenance.
Different strengths. TPO is white/reflective (energy efficient in summer) and heat-welded (strong seams). EPDM is darker, more flexible, and generally proven in 30+ year applications.
