There are many people who love cold weather. Winter brings snow and cold-weather sports like skiing and ice skating. Kids can build snowmen and have snowball fights. It sounds like fun and games, unless you are roofing contractor struggling to work with products that just can’t handle the weather.
Cold temperatures result in cracked and brittle materials, frozen liquids and equipment that just doesn’t want to work. It used to be that roofing companies would stretch their work into the cold weather as far as they could before stopping for the winter and starting crews back up in March or April.

Manufacturers like Tremco Roofing have spent years working to find solutions that will allow contractors to keep working throughout the winter.
