As Roofing Manager for Dow Building Solutions - manufacturer of STYROFOAM~(TM) thermal insulation -1 know a roof may be only 2% of the overall budget of a build. However, I also know that in terms of the usability, longevity and performance of a structure, a roofs value far outweighs its cost, meaning it's vital that the right decisions are made when it comes to system design, materiaL choice and installation. With much of our product going into large scale inverted flat roofing projects I spend a lot of time on the roofs of schools, retail outlets and commercial office space discussing delivery, installation and design challenges - butin recent months long term performance and drainage issues have been dominating my conversations as teams tackle decisions about thermal insulation choice for inverted roofs. Of course, considerations such as thermal efficiency requirements, product availability, ease of installation and cost come first.
