Michigan's climate presents unique challenges for single-ply roofing membranes. The freeze-thaw cycles during winter can cause expansion and contraction, leading to potential cracks or failures if the membrane isn't installed correctly or isn't of high quality. Additionally, the summer humidity can contribute to moisture issues beneath the membrane. The prevalent housing stock, often featuring pitched roofs on older homes and flatter surfaces on newer constructions, requires specific expertise for single-ply applications.
