This year the Pacific has seen the majority of hurricanes and tropical storms, albeit alongside a prediction from meteorologists that this will be a calmer season. Savvy business owners should take this opportunity to invest in preventative roof maintenance to prepare themselves for the next big one. They need not look any further than Tory's Roofing & Waterproofing; Oahu’s family-owned roofing contractor is ready to help with any storm damage or to upgrade to your facilities.

Until October, we can expect an increase in the chance of major storms. There are many options for increased durability in your commercial roofing. Choosing the right design and material can make a world of difference during the more active period. If your business has a flat roof and there is a need for extra sturdiness, there are two single-ply membrane types you can use:

• Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO): This commercial-grade roofing material boasts high energy efficiency and reflectiveness. The overlapped seams and heat-welding mean that the material becomes “virtually tear resistant.”
• Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC): The very common plastic is a great choice for restaurants and buildings requiring a rooftop grease trap as grease and oils do not weaken the membrane. Its strength is very similar to TPO.

Both are viable options for protecting your investment from harsh weather.
