Flat and low-slope systems
Commercial roofs fail differently than homes. Ponding water finds every low spot on a flat roof, seams and penetrations around HVAC units open up as the membrane ages, and small leaks travel along the deck to show up far from their source. The systems the crew works with are the standard commercial stack, whether it's TPO, EPDM, or coatings:
- TPO. The white single-ply membrane on most newer commercial buildings. Heat-welded seams, reflective surface that cuts cooling load, and a proven track record on East Tennessee flat roofs.
- EPDM. The black rubber membrane that has been the workhorse of low-slope roofing for decades. Repairable, durable, and often the economical call for repairs on buildings that already have it.
- Coatings. When the existing membrane is aging but sound, a coating system can add years of service and improve reflectivity for a fraction of a full replacement, honestly assessed rather than upsold either way.
From repair to full replacement
Routine upkeep, seam and penetration repairs, storm damage, and full system replacement are all covered. The recommendation follows the roof's actual condition: a repairable membrane gets repaired, a coating candidate gets a coating, and a roof that is genuinely done gets a straight replacement quote with the price before anything is scheduled. Pricing on commercial work depends heavily on the system, so it starts with a free walk of the roof rather than a number pulled from a chart.
Storm just came through? Commercial buildings get the same storm damage response as homes, including emergency tarping and working with insurance companies.
