5 biggest myths about SPF insulation – #4: SPF insulation is too expensive for me.
Small-business owners are concerned with the cost of doing business. There are substantial costs to consider when it comes to installing a new commercial roofing system. Many business owners automatically buy into the myth that SPF roofing solutions are too expensive because they are chemically produced and so efficient.
The reality is that an SPF commercial roofing solution only costs as much, if not less than other roofing solutions, including BURs, Tar & Gravel roofs, or Asphalt. While the price of any commercial roofing solution varies with each building, the quality and reliability of SPF is worth the investment.
What makes SPF such a unique solution compared to other commercial roofing solutions is its monolithic structure. Other commercial roofing systems require flashing, fasteners, joint seams, and other potentially vulnerable damage points. With SPF’s liquid bonding and expansion process, it seams and seals the roofing surface. There is no need for flashing, fasteners, and any other connecting hardware because of the incredible bonding nature of SPF. (Source)
SPF roofing also requires less tear-off and extends the life-cycle of your roof. This greatly reduces your overall cost over the life of the roof. With regular maintenance an SPF roofing solution has a virtually indefinite life-cycle. Our R&A Contracting team proudly installs FOAM-LOK SPF roofing insulation from Lapolla Industries. We also install Thermo-Flex from Lapolla as an elastomeric coating to protect SPF insulation from the sun’s harmful UV rays and storm debris.
With added longevity, leak-resistant expansion bonding upon installation, and no need for roofing hardware, SPF roofing solutions are the most cost-efficient commercial roofing solution available today.
