"Wave of the Future"? how about Wave of the Present...and recent past?
Hello everyone,
New to the forum, but I do have many posts on other roofing forums. Came across this one today, so I thought I would go ahead and join.
I personally don't know. I have been getting on top of roofs since I was a teenager. I do know now that I am almost 40, I am starting to wear down a bit. Not saying I am old, but when you do work as such you eventually start to hurt. I fell off a roof when I was younger as well, and it has really affected my back.
I would like to work inside. It is getting hot! Especially on a shingle roof do we have to make sure in the summer we don't stay on it past noon or so here in Louisiana. On top of that the humidity is a killer here.
That is a tough question been roofing for so long and loving every minute of it.
"Wave of the future", has run-out on the beach years ago. Been hearing BUR is done for the past 30+ years.
I remember in the late 70's being introduced to EPDM on a Navy base project in California, and I'm sure us west-coast guys were well behind the east/mid-west, on the single-ply band-wagon. In recent years, the title 24 has probably helped the TPO/PVC market in Ca. Still; Dollar for dollar BUR is hard to beat in Ca.
BUR is a tried & proven methodology. However, takes significant capital investment, actual roofing knowledge, craftsmanship/artisanship that can only be perfected with experience.It's also dirty/hard work. Whereas single-ply technology/logistics are relatively inexpensive, quick to teach and far cleaner/safer to perform. Done correctly, they work just as well. It's a no-brainer, (especially east of the CD),in today's market.
The rates of the roofing sheets varies according to the types and quality that you prefer.. for poultry form I suggest to choose pre-coated roofing sheets or just check out this link that may help u http://www.roofing-matters.net/
