TPO Roofing in Rochester, NY
Need a flat roof that stands up to Rochester summers? Kaptein Contracting installs TPO, the white single ply membrane that reflects heat and keeps cooling costs down, on commercial and low slope buildings across Rochester, Gates, Henrietta, Chili, and Fairport. Fully insured, family-run since 2006.
What Is TPO Roofing and How Long Does It Last?
TPO is a white single ply membrane welded at the seams and used on flat and low slope roofs. It lasts 20 to 30 years in Rochester. It reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it, which keeps the building cooler and the cooling bill lower through summer.
The seams are hot air welded, so the joint is as strong as the sheet itself. That is the difference between TPO and a glued system, and it is why TPO fails at the flashing and the drains rather than out in the middle of the roof. If you are weighing it against rubber, read our EPDM page.

What Do Kaptein Contracting Customers Say?
It’s so nice when a quote and job expectations all come true! Kaptein gave us the best price for our roof tear-off, completed the job in one full day with a crew who was great and obviously hard working. Would 100% recommend without hesitation.

These guys tore out three layers of shingles, a heap of rotten wood and put in a perfect roof with new ventilation and left the property impeccably clean all in about a day and for a very fair price. Highly recommend!

Two years after installing our roof, they returned to inspect an issue that ended up being unrelated to their work. Not only did they check it thoroughly, they also cleaned and repaired the gutters. Highly recommended!

TPO Questions, Answered
Who installs TPO roofing in Rochester, NY?
Kaptein Contracting installs TPO roofing throughout Rochester, NY, Monroe County, and Wayne County. We are a family-run, fully insured roofing contractor, working in Rochester since 2006. We install and repair TPO on flat and low slope commercial buildings and on residential flat roof sections.
Why is TPO white?
White reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it. A black roof on a Rochester building can run far hotter than the air on a July afternoon, and that heat goes into the building. A reflective membrane keeps the space cooler and the cooling load lower.
Can a TPO roof be repaired?
Yes. TPO is welded at the seams, so a repair is welded in the same way and bonds to the existing sheet. Most failures show up at the flashing, the drains, and the penetrations, and those are all repairable without touching the rest of the roof.
Can TPO go on a house, not just a commercial building?
Yes, on flat and low slope sections. Plenty of Rochester homes have a flat porch roof, a dormer, or a rear addition that a shingle cannot cover properly. A membrane is the right answer there, and TPO is the one we reach for most.
