Apex Construction has recently completed a new roof installation on the Marriott Hotel building in Salisbury, MD. This commercial roofing project required the installation of two separate roofing systems. EPDM was used on the flat / low slope roof segments and asphalt shingles were used on the pitched portions of the roof. This combination of roofs systems gives the popular hotel chain an aesthetically pleasing curb appeal while providing superior functionality and long lasting reliability. The new roof installation was completed on time and within budget. Contact Apex Construction today to discuss your next roofing project.
EPDM for flat or low slope roofing applications is a wise choice that is commonly used in commercial and industrial applications. Technically known as “ethylene propylene diene terpolymer,” EPDM is an exceptionally strong and resilient roofing system that can last 30 years or longer when installed and maintained correctly.
- EPDM Roof System Advantages
- EPDM roof membrane comes in traditional black or highly reflective white.
- EPDM resists thermal shock and hail damage.
- EPDM remains flexible and will not shatter in frigid temperatures.
- EPDM is superior in its ability to withstand UV damage.
- EPDM accommodates structural movement without membrane stress.
- EPDM does not deteriorate.
- EPDM membrane comes in sheets up to 50-feet wide.
- EPDM offers one of the best dollar-for-dollar values in low-slope installations.
