Deep dive: Urban roof performance

City roofs deal with foot traffic, satellite mounts, HVAC units, and tree debris. We reinforce pathways, flash penetrations correctly, and specify membranes or shingles that resist scuffs and punctures.

Metal roofs get high-temp underlayments, clip spacing for thermal movement, and hemmed edges that keep wind-driven rain out.

Impact-rated shingles handle hail; SBS-modified underlayments resist heat; stainless fasteners prevent corrosion near coastal areas.
