As professional roofing contractors
since 1980, it amazes us how few roofs ever reach
a ripe old age before needing replacement. An
unbelievable 91.1% of roofs fail prematurely!
5 major studies involving over two billion square
feet of flat roofs show that the average life
expectancy of a flat roof in the U.S. is less
than 13.4 years.
According to several major studies
of roof longevity, these are the average life
expectancies by roof type
- EPDM Rubber:
- Modified Bitumen:
- Other Roof Types:
|
13.4 years
13.25 years
13.13 years |
Here's a new principle to live
by when it comes to deciding on a new roof:
The greatest cost of roofing is actually the hidden
cost of having to re-roof prematurely.
- We design our premium system for a 20 - 25
year life expectancy, almost double the average
life.
- Our roofs are built to die of old age, not
the 91.1% of problems that causes lesser roofs
to fail.
