Commercial & Industrial Roofing

Commercial roofing systems are available in various types, each designed to accommodate commercial buildings’ unique requirements and architectural designs. These include:

• Built-up Roofing (BUR): Layering tar and gravel to create a sealed surface
• Modified Bitumen Roofing: Similar to BUR but reinforced with fiberglass or polyester layers
• Single-ply roofing: These are membranes, either thermoset (like EPDM) or thermoplastic (like PVC or TPO), applied in one layer
• Metal roofing: Made from metal pieces or tiles, popular for their durability and longevity

Various factors must be considered when choosing a commercial roofing material, including durability, energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility with your building’s structure. Our knowledgeable team can help you assess your needs and recommend the best roofing material for your establishment.

Flat roofs are a popular choice for commercial buildings, offering a multitude of advantages. One key benefit is their efficient use of space, enabling the placement of HVAC systems and other equipment atop the roof, freeing up valuable interior space. From a financial standpoint, flat roofs are typically more cost-effective to install and upkeep. Their versatile design lends itself well to covering large areas, making them ideal for expansive commercial structures. Moreover, flat roofs boast accessibility, simplifying maintenance and repair tasks in comparison to sloped roofs.

If your building has a single roof in good condition, opting for a new roof installation without removing the existing one could offer cost savings. However, there are situations necessitating a roof tear-off:

• Your facility currently has two roofs: Building regulations typically limit commercial structures to two roofing layers to avoid overburdening the building’s structure.

• Your facility’s roof poses safety concerns: If your roof is compromised, waterlogged, or structurally unsound, removing the existing roof is necessary to ensure a secure installation of a new roof system.

If you’re unable to afford a new roof, it may be possible to repair your roof instead. Ensuring timely and efficient commercial roof repairs is essential for prolonging the roof’s durability. Swift attention to minor issues prevents them from evolving into costly problems. Moreover, a well-maintained roof enhances insulation, resulting in lower energy expenses. By addressing repairs promptly, leaks and mold growth are prevented, safeguarding the safety and health of building occupants while shielding business operations from interruptions caused by roofing issues. To gauge the efficacy of repairs, it’s imperative to prioritize regular roofing maintenance.

Each building and roofing project presents unique challenges and considerations that influence the project’s pricing. Factors such as the choice of materials, the intricacy of installation, roof slope, labor expenses, and the size and condition of the current roof all contribute to the cost of commercial roofing.
