IB Roof Systems: Our Recommended Flat Roofing Solution

At Renoteck, we recommend IB Roof Systems for all flat and low-sloped roofing projects. This premium single-ply PVC roofing membrane is engineered to outperform traditional flat roofing materials, offering superior protection against pooling water and extreme temperature fluctuations. The high-performance PVC membranes adjust easily with Alberta's changing temperatures while resisting chemical exposure, UV degradation, and harsh weather conditions.

Proven Long-Term Performance

IB's PVC membrane has an impressive 30+ year track record with successful installations across North America. This reliable system has consistently demonstrated exceptional durability in diverse climate conditions, including Alberta's harsh winters and hot summers.

Industry-Leading Warranties

IB is so confident in their membrane performance that each installation comes with the industry's best warranty options:

• Up to 30-year Total System warranty (depending on your project specifications)
• Limited Lifetime Material Warranty for all single-family residential applications

Complete Roof System Solution

As a single-source provider for the entire roof system, IB ensures perfect compatibility between all components from the substrate up. All materials for your project can be ordered through Renoteck Roofing, including prefabricated custom flashings that are fully warrantable and eliminate the need for field fabrication by our installation team.

Versatile Application Methods

IB Roof Systems offers multiple installation options to suit your specific building requirements:

• Mechanically Attached Systems
• Fully Adhered Systems
• Ballasted Systems

Superior Water Resistance

Unlike competing products, IB membranes feature anti-wicking scrim technology that doesn't rely on seam sealers that require ongoing maintenance to prevent water absorption. Their specialized manufacturing process protects and coats the scrim with high-performance plasticizers, achieving remarkable water resistance with test results of just 0.6% absorption (industry standard allows up to 3%).

Significant Energy Savings

IB membranes reflect up to 90% of solar radiation that would normally heat and enter your building through the roof. This outstanding reflectivity translates into substantial energy savings by reducing cooling costs. The performance of IB's White & Cool Sand membranes exceeds both Energy Star and CRRC requirements for energy efficiency.

No Exclusions for Ponding Water

Unlike many flat roofing warranties, IB does NOT exclude ponding water areas from their coverage. Their membranes are specifically engineered to resist standing water without deterioration, even after prolonged exposure – a critical advantage for flat roofing applications in Alberta.

Exceptional Seam Strength

The balanced top and bottom layer thickness provides our installers with the maximum amount of high-quality material, reducing the risk of over or under-heating during installation. When two IB membranes are welded together, they create a seam that is 360% stronger and more reliable than the ASTM Standard for Seam Strength.

Thicker Weathering Layer

IB membranes feature a substantially thicker top layer that provides increased weathering resistance and extends the overall system lifespan. This weathering surface is up to 250% thicker compared to the ASTM standard for PVC membranes.

Long-Term Flexibility and Stability

Using only the highest quality polymers and plasticizers, IB's formulation allows their membranes to remain highly flexible and dimensionally stable without compromising performance. These membranes maintain their essential characteristics even after decades of service - we've successfully welded brand new IB membrane to 30+ year old installations without any issues.
