Air quality monitoring during roofing installations ensures worker safety and project compliance. Continuous monitoring for hydrogen sulfide, benzene, and other petrochemical compounds determines safe working conditions. When air quality exceeds safety thresholds, work stops until conditions improve, ensuring both worker safety and project integrity.

Thermal Cycling and Temperature-Resistant Solutions

Borger's continental climate creates extreme temperature cycles, with summer highs exceeding 105°F and winter lows dropping below 10°F. Refinery operations add significant thermal loading, with roof surface temperatures often reaching 140-160°F on industrial buildings. These conditions demand roofing systems specifically engineered for thermal expansion and contraction stresses.

Membrane roofing systems require enhanced flexibility to accommodate thermal movement without cracking or tearing. We install TPO membranes with increased thickness (80-mil versus standard 60-mil) and use mechanically-attached systems that allow controlled thermal movement. Expansion joints at critical locations prevent stress concentrations that cause premature failures.

Metal roofing installations use floating clip systems that accommodate thermal expansion while maintaining weather-tight performance. Standing seam systems with structural thermal breaks prevent heat transfer into building interiors while allowing metal panels to expand and contract safely. These systems prove especially important for process buildings where internal temperature control affects operations.
