COURSE DESCRIPTION: EPDM/TPO Advanced 

TPO and EPDM are the two most popular low slope roofing membranes in Colorado.  This course is intended for installers who are newer to the industry who are seeking in depth knowledge of TPO and EPDM systems as well as learning proper installation techniques for each of these membrane systems and their respective details. 

Small class size; maximum 12 students per course. The two-day class is approximately 50% hands-on and includes lectures as well as working sessions.  Students will install details on our mock-ups so they come away with a greater understanding of proper use for single ply roofing. Upon completing the course, students will receive a "Certificate of Completion."

Make a commitment to take a person out of the field for two-days, we’ll train them and with their new knowledge and skills, they will be twice as productive when they return.
