Commercial Roof Systems and Materials

We install a wide range of systems to match building needs, budgets, and long-term performance goals. Our experts assess roof decks, drains, insulation, and slope to recommend the best fit for each facility.

Options include TPO, metal, asphalt, and composite solutions that meet specific load and maintenance schedules. We focus on systems that reduce energy costs and resist weather damage.

TPO membranes offer high reflectivity and reliable performance for flat or low-slope roofs. These systems help lower cooling costs and can deliver fast, clean installations with strong weather resistance.

TPO also integrates well with insulation upgrades for total roof system improvements. When paired with proper roof drainage, it supports long-term energy savings and reduced heat islands.

Metal roofing provides exceptional durability and long service life, especially for pitched roofs. It is lightweight, fire-resistant, and often highly recyclable, making it a smart choice for sustainable projects.

With proper coatings, metal can offer impressive wind and impact resistance. For design-driven properties, metal presents both functional and architectural benefits that last for decades.

Asphalt and composite roofs are cost-effective and simple to repair or replace. They are common for many building types and can be tailored with underlayment and ventilation improvements to boost lifespan.

Composite options, including architectural-grade materials, provide attractive curb appeal and solid performance for retail and office centers seeking design and value in one system.

Installation Standards and Hail-Resistant Roofing

Our installation standards follow manufacturer specifications and local codes to ensure safe, compliant work. We document each step and keep owners informed from mobilization to final inspection.

We also install Hail-Resistant Roofing (Class 4 / FM 4473) where needed to protect roofs from severe weather. These systems reduce damage risk and often lower insurance exposure for commercial clients.

Every roof job follows strict quality controls, including substrate preparation, fastener patterns, and flashing details. Proper installation reduces callbacks and extends roof life through precise workmanship and testing.

Our crews receive ongoing training and follow standardized checklists to maintain consistent results. Documentation includes photos, as-built notes, and warranty-ready records for owners.

When buildings face hail exposure, choosing the right materials is essential. Our Hail-Resistant Roofing (Class 4 / FM 4473) installations help reduce the frequency of repairs and protect internal assets from storm damage.

These systems combine tough membranes, reinforced substrates, and reliable attachment methods so roofs can better withstand severe hail events and high winds.

Roof Type Best For Lifespan Reflectivity Relative Cost
TPO Low-slope commercial 20-30 years High Moderate
Metal Pitched and design-driven sites 30-50 years Moderate High
Asphalt Budget-sensitive projects 15-25 years Low Low-Moderate
Composite Architectural appeal 20-30 years Varies Moderate-High
Warranties, Certifications, and Compliance

We back work with strong warranties and manufacturer partnerships to protect your investment. As a TAMKO Diamond Contractor, we offer exclusive 25-year workmanship warranties and high-wind coverage up to 160 mph.

Our Brava Preferred status provides durable, architectural-grade options. Combined, these credentials give owners peace of mind about long-term performance and compliance with local code requirements.

We partner with American-made manufacturers for reliable products and warranty support. These partnerships deliver better materials, clearer warranties, and quicker response when claims or adjustments are needed.

Working with manufacturers also helps us offer extended protection and access to the best available systems for each facility's needs.

For commercial risks, we help prepare documentation and take steps to meet insurance expectations. Our high-wind warranty up to 160 mph reduces owner exposure and supports resilient building operations during storms.

We document roof conditions and provide detailed estimates so insurance reviews are straightforward. Clear records and certified installations support smoother claims handling when events occur.

Safety and code compliance are mandatory on every project. Our teams use approved materials, maintain safety plans, and follow local permitting processes so roofs pass inspection and meet legal requirements.

We provide owners with compliance certificates, closeout packets, and maintenance guidance so the roof continues to meet standards long after installation.

Maintenance, Repairs, and Roof Rejuvenation

Routine maintenance keeps roofs functioning longer and reduces the chance of surprise outages. Our maintenance programs include inspections, preventive repairs, drain clearing, and value-based recommendations.

For aged systems, we offer rejuvenation and coating solutions that can extend life and improve reflectivity. These options are reviewed against replacement cost to find the right financial choice.

Regular inspections detect small issues before they grow. Our plans can be scheduled annually or seasonally. Each visit includes documentation and recommended actions to protect roof life and building operations.

Maintenance helps preserve warranties and improves safety. With clear records, owners can budget for repairs and avoid large, unexpected capital costs later.

We respond quickly to leaks, storm damage, and urgent repairs to limit downtime. Our emergency teams assess the situation, make temporary repairs if needed, and outline permanent solutions in a prompt repair plan.

Fast action reduces interior damage and keeps tenants and operations safe. We coordinate with property managers and insurance adjusters when required to streamline recovery work.

Coatings can restore reflectivity and seal small aging issues for a fraction of replacement cost. We evaluate existing roof conditions and recommend rejuvenation when it provides measurable life extension and cost savings.

These solutions are best when the substrate is sound. Our field reports include clear metrics so owners can compare rejuvenation versus replacement and choose confidently.

Project Management, Budgeting, and Client Coordination

Every project has a plan, schedule, and single point of contact to keep communication clear. We prepare phased approaches for large campuses to limit downtime and coordinate trades and deliveries.

Transparent budgeting and regular updates help owners make informed decisions. We track materials, man-hours, and inspections to ensure costs match expectations and milestones are met on time.

Our proposals outline scope, materials, warranty options, and timelines so there are no surprises. Clear line items and schedules help owners understand cost drivers and manage capital planning effectively.

We review options like insulation upgrades and reflective finishes that can change lifecycle costs. These choices are presented in plain language so owners can decide based on value and performance.

One project manager guides each job from kickoff to completion. This person coordinates crews, schedules inspections, and provides daily updates so owners know what to expect and when.

Consistent communication reduces delays and keeps stakeholders aligned. Our approach minimizes business impact while delivering high-quality roofing work with measurable results.

We serve commercial clients as well as residential homeowners with the same commitment to quality. From factories to single-family homes, our teams tailor solutions to building type, budget, and lifespan goals.
