4 Rooftop Patio Flooring Ideas for Your Building

A rooftop patio can provide your business with a stunning outdoor space for entertaining clients, holding events, or simply providing employees with a place to relax and enjoy some fresh air. But what type of flooring should you use for your commercial rooftop patio?

Here are a few of the most popular options for rooftop patio flooring.

1. Wood Deck Tiles
   One of the quickest and easiest ways to install a new floor on your rooftop patio is with wood deck tiles. These tiles come in a variety of colors and wood species (look for sustainably harvested wood!) You'll need to make sure that the tiles you select are rated for use on rooftops, as some tiles are not meant to be used in high-traffic or high-sun areas.
2. Pavers
   If you're looking for more of a permanent solution, pavers might be the way to go. Pavers are available in a wide range of colors, sizes, and shapes, so you can create a one-of-a-kind look for your patio. They're also very durable, so you won't have to worry about them cracking or breaking under heavy traffic or extreme weather conditions. 
3. Concrete
   Concrete is another popular option for commercial rooftop patios. It's extremely durable and can be stained or stamped to create a variety of looks. Concrete is also a relatively inexpensive option when compared to other types of patio flooring. The downside to concrete is that it can be difficult to repair if it cracks or chips, so it's important to consider this before making your final decision. 
4. Artificial Turf 
   Another popular option for commercial patios is artificial turf. Artificial turf is realistic and looks great all year round, which is perfect if your business gets a lot of foot traffic. It's also easy to clean and maintain, so you won't have to spend a lot of time keeping it looking its best.

When selecting flooring for your commercial rooftop patio, there are many factors to consider, including durability, cost, and appearance. Make sure to take your time to find rooftop patio flooring that works best for your particular goals and needs. 

Important Notice: Bison Innovative Products recommends that all rooftop deck systems should be installed by a licensed contractor with at least 2 years of proven experience. Plans/designs for a rooftop deck should be reviewed by a safety/structural engineer before commencing construction. The roof must be able to safely carry the static and live load weights of the rooftop deck, and any amenities added along with the appropriate density of any insulation to resist crushing and damaging the waterproof membrane. Adding items such as hardscaping features, hot tubs, or pools to a rooftop deck requires additional guidance and oversight from an engineer. Property owners should research and abide by any building codes and other regulations to obtain the required permits prior to having a rooftop deck installed. Please read all product specifications posted on Bisonip.com to review all information prior to any installation.
