On top of the vapor barrier, three inches of rigid Styrofoam insulation was installed, followed by a layer of asphalt-backed drywall. Finally, the wall was covered by a layer of thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO). The TPO along the walls overlays on the roofing TPO to prevent leaks.

On the q-deck on the roof, a similar installation occurred. A vapor barrier was installed and a 6-inch Styrofoam insulation was put on top (seen below in pink). The next layer is drywall with an asphalt coating, which is attached to the q-decking underneath using 9-inch screws.
Last week Oak Roofing and Sheet Metal Foreman Willy Hernandez worked with a crew of nine roofers.

With the drywall screwed in place, the TPO can be installed (seen here in white).
