Commercial Roofing for Roanoke-Area Properties

Commercial roofing decisions should start with the existing assembly, drainage, penetrations, leak history and facility needs. TPO, EPDM and other systems each have applications where they may be appropriate.

Start with the existing roof

Document roof age if known, recurring leak areas, drains and scuppers, rooftop equipment, penetrations and any prior repairs. That information helps separate isolated maintenance issues from broader system concerns.

TPO and EPDM

These are common single-ply membrane categories, but the right specification depends on the building and project requirements. Attachment method, insulation, flashing and drainage details are part of the system and should be considered with the membrane itself.

For facility managers

Photographs, roof plans when available, maintenance history and clear documentation of problem areas can make evaluation and budgeting more useful. We can organize observations into repair, monitoring and replacement-planning categories.
