DURO-LAST PVC* From the manufacturer's website / brochure:

 

The Duro-Last prefabricated single-ply roofing system is ideal for virtually any commercial or industrial, flat or low-sloped application. The highly-reflective white membrane delivers real energy cost savings for building owners and managers. Extremely durable and easily installed without disruption to daily operations, the Duro-Last roofing system is also leak-proof, resistant to high winds, and virtually maintenance-free.
 
 

The Duro-Last single-ply roofing system is ideal for any low sloped or flat roof design. Since 1978, over a billion square feet of Duro-Last membrane have been installed on buildings of all types. The Duro-Last roofing system is:

Precision-fabricated to fit your building's low-sloped or flat roof. Every Duro-Last roof is manufactured to exact size in our controlled factory environment. This eliminates up to 85% of rooftop installation seaming and ensures an excellent fit, delivering worry-free, leak-proof, long-term protection for any low-sloped or flat roof design.
 


The Duro-Last vinyl roof membrane is a proprietary thermoplastic formulation consisting of PVC resins, plasticizers, stabilizers, biocides, flame retardants and U.V. absorbents. A weft-insertion knitted scrim that is laminated between two layers of PVC film gives the membrane its strength and durability. The Duro-Last membrane is available in white, tan or gray.

    LeakMaster's Opinion   


We are the largest installer of Duro-Last roofs in Hawaii, so we are true believers. For that reason, you may wish to discount my ravings listed below:

1. It is custom made to your roofs' dimensions at the factory, so 80% of the field welds are done under ideal conditions and go through a 14 point inspection before shipping. Less time and labor on your roof.
2. Reflects an incredible 87% of the sun's energy and releases the energy faster than a black roof.
3. The warranty is free and fully transferable w/o charge.
4. All finshed roofs are inspected by a professionally trained Quality assurance rep. prior to Warranty.
5. Duro-Last has been in business for 30 years and makes every component and accessory to their system.
6.Material is 100% weldable through out the life cycle of the roof.
7. Certified and approved contractors are the only ones able to install the system.
8. Self extinquishing during a fire.
9. Warranty also covers "Consequential Damage" such as damage to computers, furnishings, etc. This is very unusual.

The only negative is that, like most single ply Manufacturers, they only provide a Material warranty, no Labor, on residences. They don't like to be bothered with smaller jobs.
