A TPO retrofit roof is a modern upgrade that extends the life of your existing roof without the mess or expense of a complete tear-off. In Tampa’s hot, humid climate, this system works wonders for aging commercial roofs that need better protection, insulation, and energy efficiency.

At Rhino Commercial Roofers, we specialize in TPO retrofits designed to refresh your roof and keep your business running smoothly. We help building owners avoid downtime and high replacement costs while improving durability and long-term performance.

About TPO Retrofits

TPO stands for Thermoplastic Polyolefin, a single-ply roofing membrane known for its strength, flexibility, and energy-saving qualities. A TPO retrofit involves installing this membrane over an existing roof system instead of removing it entirely. It creates a watertight surface that reflects heat, resists UV damage, and helps lower cooling costs.

Our TPO retrofit systems are ideal for flat or low-slope commercial roofs that have reached the end of their service life but are still structurally sound. The process starts with an inspection to confirm the condition of the existing roof deck and insulation. Once cleared, we install new insulation (if needed) and apply the TPO membrane using precise, heat-welded seams that lock out water and wind.

TPO retrofits are lightweight, energy-efficient, and long-lasting. They help reduce waste because there is no need to tear off old roofing materials, which also saves time and labor. With the right installation, a TPO retrofit can add decades of service life to your building.

Signs You Need TPO Retrofits

If your commercial roof is starting to show its age, a retrofit may be the right choice. Here are a few signs to look for:

• Frequent Repairs: If you keep patching leaks and cracks, a TPO retrofit can give you a clean, watertight surface that ends those ongoing issues.
• Rising Energy Bills: If your building gets too hot during Tampa summers, your roof may be absorbing excess heat. TPO’s reflective surface helps reduce that heat gain.
• Surface Damage: Cracks, blisters, or bubbles often mean your roof’s top layer is breaking down. A retrofit seals over those weak spots.
• Pooling Water: Flat or low-slope roofs often collect water, which leads to leaks and decay. A retrofit can correct drainage issues and strengthen your surface.
• Aging Roof System: If your current roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, but the structure is still solid, a TPO retrofit can add years without a full replacement.

If you are not sure, we can inspect your roof and help you decide if a retrofit is the best solution for your property and budget.
