Single Ply Roofing Systems in Western Colorado

Upgrade to a Durable, Heat-Welded Roofing System Built to Last

When Repairs Are No Longer Enough

Upgrade from Failing TPO & EPDM Systems

Aging TPO and EPDM roofing systems eventually reach a point where repairs are no longer effective. At Colorado Commercial Roofing Restoration by American Dream Roofing, we provide expert single ply commercial roofing in Colorado, helping property owners upgrade failing membranes with durable, long-lasting solutions. Our commercial single ply roofing systems are designed to improve energy efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and deliver superior protection for commercial buildings throughout Western Colorado.

Our single-ply roofing system is a high-performance, heat-welded PVC roofing system designed for new construction and complete reroof applications. Instead of relying on coatings or temporary fixes, this system creates a fully adhered, seamless membrane that delivers long-term protection and performance.

The heat-welded seams form a watertight barrier that resists leaks, standing water, and harsh weather conditions. Its reflective surface helps reduce heat absorption, improving energy efficiency and lowering cooling costs—especially important for commercial buildings across Western Colorado.

This system is ideal for flat and low-slope roofs commonly found on commercial, industrial, and large residential structures throughout the Western Slope. Whether you’re replacing a failing membrane or planning a new build, Flexion 2.0 provides a durable, low-maintenance solution built to perform for years.

How PVC Single-Ply Installation Works

PVC single-ply roofing systems use a flexible membrane installed over a properly prepared roof assembly. Conklin’s Flexion 2.0 system can be configured as either a mechanically attached or fully adhered system, depending on the project requirements and roof assembly.

The system uses heat-welded seams to join membrane sections, creating continuous connections between sheets. Conklin’s specifications also address membrane flashing, accessories, insulation, fasteners, adhesives, sealants, and metal flashing as components of the complete roofing system.

For an existing commercial roof, the condition of the current membrane, substrate, insulation, drainage, seams, and other roof components should be evaluated before determining whether a new single-ply system or membrane restoration is appropriate.





Commercial Flat Roof Repair vs. Full Replacement

An aging or leaking commercial flat roof does not automatically require complete replacement. The appropriate approach depends on the condition of the existing membrane, substrate, insulation, drainage, seams, penetrations, and other components of the roof assembly.

When an existing TPO, EPDM, or other compatible membrane remains a suitable candidate for restoration, a restoration system may provide an alternative to full tear-off. The assessment should identify whether the existing roof can be cleaned, prepared, repaired where necessary, and recoated as part of a complete restoration system.

American Dream Roofing evaluates the existing roof before recommending restoration. The goal is to determine whether restoration is appropriate for the roof’s actual condition rather than automatically treating every aging membrane the same way.

Fully Adhered vs. Mechanically Attached Systems

Conklin’s Flexion 2.0 PVC system can be installed using either a fully adhered or mechanically attached configuration. The appropriate attachment method depends on the roof assembly, substrate, project specifications, and applicable manufacturer requirements.

Fully adhered systems use bonding adhesive to attach the membrane to the prepared substrate, while mechanically attached systems use approved fasteners and attachment components. Conklin’s specifications establish requirements for the complete system and require application by contractors trained in the Flexion 2.0 system.

For an existing commercial roof, the attachment method and overall system should be evaluated based on the building and roof conditions rather than selecting one configuration universally.





Replacing vs. Restoring Your Existing TPO or EPDM Roof

If your commercial building currently has a TPO or EPDM membrane, complete replacement is not necessarily the only option. Depending on the roof’s existing condition, a membrane restoration system may allow the existing roof to be cleaned, prepared, treated, and recoated without a full tear-off.

Our membrane restoration approach is designed for eligible existing commercial membrane roofs. The restoration process depends on the condition of the existing membrane, substrate, seams, penetrations, drainage, and other components.

Ongoing roof maintenance can also help identify developing problems before they become more extensive. American Dream Roofing evaluates the existing roof and recommends restoration when the roof is a suitable candidate for the system.

Areas We Serve

Our PVC single-ply installations and repairs cover commercial buildings across the Grand Valley, I-70 Corridor, North Fork Valley, Uncompahgre Valley, San Miguel & West End, High Rockies, Gunnison Basin, and Montrose. Snow load and drainage needs shift from valley floor to high country, and we factor that into every flat roof system we design.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Conklin Flexion 2.0 PVC roofing system?

Conklin Flexion 2.0 is a single-ply PVC roofing membrane designed for commercial and industrial buildings. It features heat-welded seams that create a durable, watertight roofing system built for long-term performance.

What are the benefits of PVC single-ply roofing?

PVC single-ply roofing offers excellent durability, weather resistance, and energy efficiency. Its reflective surface can help reduce heat absorption and lower cooling costs for many commercial buildings.

Is Conklin Flexion 2.0 suitable for reroofing projects?

Yes, Conklin Flexion 2.0 can be used for both reroofing and new construction applications. This flexibility makes it a practical solution for many commercial property owners.

Are heat-welded seams better than glued roofing seams?

Heat-welded seams create a strong, uniform bond that helps improve waterproofing performance. They are commonly chosen because they provide greater seam integrity than many mechanically joined alternatives.

Is PVC roofing energy efficient?

Yes, PVC roofing systems are known for their reflective properties, which can help reduce rooftop temperatures and improve building energy efficiency.

What is a single ply roofing system?

A single-ply roofing system is a commercial roofing membrane made from a single layer of durable, flexible material instead of multiple layers like traditional built-up roofing. It’s installed over flat or low-slope roofs and seamed together (heat-welded or adhered) to create one continuous, watertight barrier. Because of its lightweight design and long service life, single-ply is now one of the most widely used roofing systems for commercial buildings in North America, including our Flexion 2.0 PVC system.

What are the three main types of single-ply roof membranes?

The three main types are TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin), PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), and EPDM (rubber membrane). TPO and PVC are heat-welded thermoplastics known for strong, seamless waterproofing, while EPDM is a thermoset rubber membrane sealed with adhesives. We install Conklin Flexion 2.0 PVC because of its superior seam strength, chemical resistance, and long-term performance compared to the other two options.

What is the average lifespan of a single ply roof?

A well-installed and properly maintained single-ply roof typically lasts 20 to 30 years. PVC systems like our Flexion 2.0 tend to fall on the higher end of that range thanks to their heat-welded seams and strong resistance to UV, chemicals, and weather which is why we back every installation with a reliable warranty.
