Project Overview
The scope of work included:
- Carport Construction: Building a new carport to provide shelter and convenience for vehicle storage.
- Stripping the Existing Roof: Removal of one layer of old rubber roofing to prepare for the new installation.
- Installation of Insulation: Incorporating a 0.5-inch fendfold insulation system, which folds like an accordion for efficient thermal performance.
- New Roofing System: Installation of a fully adhered 60-mil white PVC membrane, known for its durability and energy efficiency.
Technical Details
- Carport Design: The new carport not only provides protection for vehicles but also complements the overall aesthetic of the property, enhancing its curb appeal.
- Roof Removal Process: The existing rubber roofing was carefully stripped away to expose the underlying substrate, ensuring a solid foundation for the new roofing system.
- Insulation Installation: The 0.5-inch fendfold insulation is designed to provide excellent thermal resistance while being lightweight and easy to install. This accordion-style insulation allows for effective air circulation and temperature regulation.
- PVC Membrane Application: The choice of a fully adhered 60-mil white PVC membrane offers superior resistance to UV radiation, chemicals, and extreme weather conditions. The white color reflects sunlight, helping to keep the building cooler during hot months and contributing to energy efficiency.
Benefits of the New Roofing System
