Roofing Tapes And Other Solutions For A Quieter Roof

Polycarbonatel sheeting is a popular roofing material. This material is light and flexible making it functional for any building design. It also offers great weather resistance and the sheets are very durable. Even though there is a whole lot to love about this roof sheeting, they all have one negative aspect in common. These rooftops can be loud.

Install Noise Stop Foam Tape

Noise-stop foam tape is the ultimate solution. These types of tapes are designed to reduce creaking sounds in polycarbonate &  acrylic rooftops. This tape is very easy to install because it has self-adhesives on one side. 

This type of weather stripping is installed about 50mm below the top and bottom of the sheet and 25mm above overlaps between roof sheets. 

The purlin tape should be installed along the full length of the roof sheet and can be used on any roof sheet profile because it is flexible and can easily fit along corrugated edges. 

The tape will compress a little bit between the roof sheets. This isn’t just helpful for keeping roof sheets from clattering or screeching against one another, it also forms an air-tight seal and can be good for making your roof even more waterproof since water cannot blow up the sheets.

Get Roof Infill Strips

Roof infill strips can also help quiet down a noisy roof. These types of strips are designed to seal off the openings or siding joints created by the roof sheet’s profile. With these gaps properly sealed off, wind cannot blow into your rooftop. This will prevent unnecessary clattering and can also reduce howling wind noises.

While these strips can be good for quieting down your roof, they are especially helpful for sealing your home from pests, dust, wind, and water and they are ideal for fireproofing your rooftop.
