Presidio Roofing was recommended to me by my insurance company and base on that I hired them to replace the roof of my house. They did an excellent job and left the yard absolutely clean! The roof inspector, Jonathan Whitaker, organized the whole project and he got the job completed in one day! He is absolutely a skilled professional.Thank you!

Nothing but great things to say about the team at Presidio Roofing. We had a roof leak around our vent hood and they pinpointed the underlying issue and resolved relatively promptly.

Great experience with Jonathan and Presidio Roofing. I had a roof that wasn't an insurance claim, just a very old, flat roof needing replacement, and Presidio had good reviews suggesting they had expertise with different types of roofs, including TPO, which I got. Sure enough, they were professional the whole way through; I got exactly the kind of roof I was looking for; and everyone I dealt with made the process as pleasant as possible. Their estimate and warranty were clear and more comprehensive and cost-effective than other estimates I got. Jonathan and the company acted with a lot of integrity throughout, so I felt I could trust them to honor the agreement.They even offer complementary maintenance inspections after the fact, which is a nice plus. Unfortunately my roof had a lot of hidden damage and took about 2x longer and more materials than expected. It's stressful to deal with such an expensive project, but less so when you feel they're not price-gouging, but trying to honor the original estimate--in fact I think they ate some of the costs to stay closer to the estimate. The work was done well and with good attention to detail and they barely disturbed the house or area at all. Jonathan was flexible with meeting times and was on time, personable, and easy to talk to about questions or concerns. He has a lot of experience and made great suggestions. He was also transparent about the process and great at knowing exactly what would work or not work and remembering every question or request I had about the roof. He spent a lot of his own time examining the old roof beforehand and I felt like he did an outstanding job communicating with the crew, the company, and myself. I highly recommend Presidio and Jonathan as professionals that take your job seriously, will stand by their work, and provide superior customer service. I hope to use them again for the gutter installation.

Presidio Roofing did my roof which was damaged after a storm. The process was super easy, well explained and fast. Everyone I came in contact with was very friendly and knowledgable. The actual crew that came to put on the roof was very mindful of my property and cleaned up after themselves. They sent me pictures of the progress and by the time I came home all was done and cleaned up. The roof looks great! I am very happy with the whole experience and highly recommend Presidio Roofing!

When we replaced our roof, there were tons of roofing companies to choose from. I researched & chose Presidio Roofing because when I mentioned their name to my insurance company they acknowledged that they were a legit & very professional company, plus easy to work with. The work was done very quick & clean. They even showed me an area of plywood which needed to be changed in order for roof to be properly installed. Fast forward a couple of years & I had a minor issue & was put in touch with Presidio and they were very understanding & resolved my issue within hours. I can't say enough good things about Presidio Roofing. I recommend them to all my family & friends. Thanks for everything.

Presidio Roofing came highly recommended from many of my friends and they were absolutely right. The Presidio team told me exactly what I needed and what I did not need. Their crew was fast and efficient. We consulted on the color and it is beautiful. In particular, since the home is older, we had some ugly air vents on the old roof that stood out for all the wrong reasons. Presidio installed modern vents that you do not even notice and are more efficient. From the inspection, to the estimate, to the drop off of materials, to the replacement, to the clean-up, to all the follow-up, Presidio Roofing is a total class company and they will make you house beautiful - and increase it’s value!! Call them - now!!

PVC Roofing Benefits

In terms of Single Ply Roofing products, PVC is not as popular as TPO, mainly due to its higher price point. A PVC roof replacement will cost 10-25% more than a TPO membrane on the same roof. However, the higher price for a PVC roof is for a reason. Here are some of the advantages of a PVC Roof in San Antonio:

More Resistant to Chemicals

PVC roofs are more resistant to chemicals than TPO. PVC is a highly resistant material that can withstand exposure to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, oils, and greases. TPO, on the other hand, is more susceptible to chemical damage and may deteriorate more quickly in environments with high levels of chemical exposure. Therefore, on roofs above restaurants and certain manufacturing facilities, where these chemicals and greases do get onto the roof, a PVC membrane is the only viable option. It is safe to say that the roof above Carnitas Lonja or Buccees is going to be a PVC roof.

Longer Lifespan

PVC roofing membranes have a longer lifespan. PVC membranes have been in use for 25 years longer than TPO membranes, and in that time, they have proven to be extremely durable and long-lasting. TPO only became popular in the mid-90s so long-term data doesn’t exist for these roofs yet in relation to their lifespan, whereas there are PVC roofs on buildings now that have been there for 40+ years. Because of this PVC roofers in San Antonio have also had 25 years more time to master the installation of these roofs. Both products have great NDL warranty options but because PVC has been used so much longer it is a safer long-term bet than TPO.

More Resistant to UV Radiation

PVC roofing membranes have superior resistance to UV radiation. They have a higher concentration of UV stabilizers than TPO membranes, which means they are better able to withstand the damaging effects of the sun’s rays. In contrast, TPO membranes can become brittle and crack over time due to prolonged exposure to UV radiation.

Easier to Weld

Another advantage of PVC roofing membranes is that they are easier to weld than TPO membranes and thus have less risk of installation error. PVC membranes can be welded using a variety of techniques, including hot-air welding, solvent welding, and induction welding. TPO membranes, on the other hand, can only be welded using hot-air welding, which can be more difficult and time-consuming. This is like how some shingles have larger “nail zones” where nails can be driven, thus reducing the risk of installer error causing long term issues. While PVC may be easier to install it still requires a PVC Roofing Contractor in San Antonio, like us, that has the highest installation standards. GAF gives a great idea of how PVC roofs are adhered.

Cons of a PVC Roof

Cost

PVC roofs are more expensive than similar TPO and EPDM roofing options. In many cases a TPO roof and a PVC roof can be interchangeably used for a specific building, and thus a TPO roof is the best financial decision, however on some buildings a TPO roof will not work and you will need to pay the extra cost for a PVC roof.

Not A Green Product

PVC roofs are inherently not great for the environment. They are hard to recycle and when burned at landfills they release harmful toxins into the atmosphere called dioxins which can cause serious issues to humans. PVC membranes also contain phthalates and similar compounds that give them their pliability but are harsh chemicals that are not good for human exposure. The reality is that you are not going to eat your PVC roof, so the risk of these chemicals is minimum, but it is important to know that PVC roofs are not particularly great for human exposure.

Energy Efficiency

PVC roofing is not as energy efficient as other types of roofing materials. PVC roofing absorbs heat and can contribute to the “heat island” effect in urban areas, leading to higher energy costs and a less comfortable working environment for building occupants.
