roof of the future

I was reading through the comments on the thread about ponding tpo roof, and thought how about 70 percent of the jobs i work on now are tpo. It seems that many of you feel its going to fail sooner than later. So my question is what do you see as the roof of the future? I liked Old Schools comment about gaurnteed work for the future. Do you think TPO will be like phenolic and well be tearing them all off? If so what will we put back a material that exsists now like hot or epdm, or will there be a new animal of roof that we will be installing?

All business even tops might as well comprise of 4 plys pitch and fiberglass or steep black-top.

Roofguy, you sound like my uncle Bob! 4 ply pitch the "Cadillac" of roofs! I actually like doing hot, but we probably only do about 3-5 jobs of it a year.

I'll be bringing up all my old quotes to waive in their faces, showing them that i strongler urged them to spend 10-15% more on a product called Fibertite, that in 32 years still hasn't failed me.

I suspect most of them will listen that day.

You'll be ripping them off and going with .060 EPDM, PVE, etc.

All commercial flat roofs should consist of 4 plys pitch and fiberglass or steep asphalt. This is the future roofs, sorry im dreaming for sure.
