Here is an overview of our various commercial roofing solutions:
Built-Up Roofs Built-up roofs (BURs) are a traditional flat roofing system consisting of alternating bitumen layers and reinforcing fabrics. These membranes are heat-welded together to form a waterproof seal. This type of roofing system is typically used on low-slope commercial and industrial buildings and is known for its versatility and durability. EPDM Roofing Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) is a synthetic rubber membrane used for commercial roofing solutions. It's a cost-effective and long-lasting product, with the ability to stretch up to three times its length without rupturing or cracking. It's also resistant to chemicals, ultraviolet radiation, and ozone. Flat Roofing Flat roofing is a popular option for many commercial building structures and requires fewer materials than sloped roofs. It's generally easier to install and offers a variety of materials, including rubber, asphalt, and more. It's also low maintenance and lasts up to 20 years with proper care and repair. Low Slope Roofing Low slope roofing is defined as having a pitch of three inches or less for every 12 feet in length and can include both single-ply membrane systems and multi-layered modified bitumen systems. Low-slope roofing is a great choice for businesses looking for maximum durability and ease of installation and maintenance. Metal Roofing Metal roofing is lightweight, low maintenance, and can last up to 50 years if properly installed and maintained. It can improve insulation, reduce noise levels, and provide natural cooling in warmer climates. |

Modified Bitumen Roofing
Modified bitumen roofing is an asphalt-based material reinforced with polyester or fiberglass for added strength and durability. This type of roofing is often used on flat roofs and has a life expectancy of up to 15 years. Modified bitumen roofing systems are available in self-adhering and torch-applied versions, both of which have their benefits, depending on the structure of the building and its environment.
Monolithic Roofing
Monolithic roofing is a seamless solution with no seams or joints. It is ideal for commercial buildings that have flat roofs and need maximum. Protection from the elements. This roofing material comes in various materials, including asphalt, rubber, and single-ply membranes.
New Construction Roofing
New Construction Roofing Solutions involve installing a new roof on a brand-new building or replacing an aging one. This service usually consists in tearing off the old roof, inspecting for any underlying problems or potential hazards, and then laying down a new layer of shingles. Ventilation systems such as ridge vents or turbine vents may be installed to help with moisture control and energy efficiency.
PVC Roofing
PVC roofing is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), chemically treated and reinforced with fiberglass mats or polyester fabrics. It offers a combination of strength, flexibility, and resistance to external elements. This type of roofing system is highly waterproof and can handle high-wind speeds.
Reroofing
This can be done to strengthen the existing roof or replace it with a new one. Reroofing is typically done with asphalt shingles, metal roofing, single-ply membranes, and other materials, depending on the desired result. This solution can save time, money, and hassle by avoiding the extensive labor associated with replacing a full roof system.
Rolled Roofing
Rolled roofing is an affordable and simple solution for flat or low-pitched roofs. It works best on structures with a pitch of up to 4/12, and the installation process is straightforward. The material consists of a base layer of tar, gravel rolled onto the roof, then a second layer of tar and gravel rolled over the first. This roofing protects against water but may not be the most aesthetically pleasing option.
Roof Coatings
Roof coatings are typically composed of a fiberglass or acrylic base that has been treated with various chemicals to create a water-resistant barrier. These coatings are available in liquid and spray forms and can be applied directly to the roof surface. The benefits of roof coatings include improved energy efficiency, weather damage, and longevity.
Roof Inspection
During an inspection, the contractor will inspect for signs of damage or wear and tear from weather or age, check sealants and adhesives, assess the condition of any roofing materials and flashings, inspect for signs of pests or vermin infestations, and look for other major problems that could affect the roof's integrity. After the inspection, the contractor will provide a detailed report of their findings and any repair recommendations.
Roof Maintenance
Roof maintenance involves regularly inspecting and cleaning roof surfaces to ensure they remain in optimal condition. Regular maintenance can help prevent costly repairs, as well as extend the lifespan of the roof.
Roof Restoration
Roof restoration is a cost-effective solution to preserving and extending the life of your roof. It involves repairing damaged or worn components and coating the roof with a protective surface. This will help minimize future damage from weather exposure and extend its life expectancy by up to ten years.
Rubber Roofs
Rubber roofing is popular for commercial flat roofs, as it offers superior weather protection, durability, and energy efficiency. It can be installed quickly and is easy to repair, making it an ideal choice for busy businesses. It is highly resistant to extreme temperatures, UV rays, and moisture, making it an effective solution for businesses in regions with dramatic weather changes.
Single-Ply Roofing
Single-ply roofing is a popular commercial roofing solution for buildings that require a flat and low-slope application. This type of roofing is made with a single layer of reinforced plastic or rubber material installed over an insulation board. It can be applied in large sections, which makes it very cost-effective and easy to install.
Spray Foam Roofing
Spray foam roofing is a cost-effective and durable solution for commercial buildings. It involves spraying a mixture of polyurethane foam, plasticizers, and other materials onto the roof surface. This creates a weather-resistant barrier that helps protect the building from water, wind, and extreme temperatures.
TPO Roofing
TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) roofing is a single-ply membrane that is lightweight, highly reflective, and energy-efficient. It is made of a blend of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene rubber, which gives it superior strength and flexibility. TPO membranes are highly resistant to ultraviolet rays, ozone, and chemicals, making them an ideal solution for commercial buildings because they are extremely durable, long-lasting, and require minimal maintenance.
Waterproofing
Waterproofing is an important component of any roofing system, as it helps to protect the building from water damage. Waterproofing involves applying a protective membrane to the roof designed to seal out moisture. Several different waterproofing materials are available, such as asphalt, bitumen, elastomeric coatings, and acrylics. When applied properly, these materials can help protect the roof from severe weather, prolong its life, and reduce costly repairs.
