Commercial Roofing Done the State Certified Way
Commercial roofing is a different game than residential. You're not picking shingle colors for a homeowner you're protecting a business asset, minimizing tenant disruption, meeting specific insurance requirements, and often managing a board of decision-makers who need documentation and warranties to sign off. We get all of that. We've been doing roofing and construction in Central Florida since 1990.
If your main issue is an active leak or isolated failure point, start with commercial roof repair. If you are planning ahead, see commercial roof maintenance and commercial roof coatings.
If the bigger question is how old the roof is and whether you still have time to maintain or restore it before replacement, start with how old is your commercial roof?. That page is built for HOAs, churches, warehouses, and property managers who need a cleaner inspection-age decision path.

Commercial Roofing Systems We Install
TPO Flat Roofing
Single-ply thermoplastic polyolefin the industry standard for commercial flat roofs. Reflective white surface reduces cooling costs significantly in Florida's climate, meets Energy Star requirements, and delivers 20-30 year service life when properly installed. We handle heat-welded seams, parapet wall flashing, drain detailing, and all the technical work that separates a good TPO install from one that leaks at year 5.
Commercial Metal Roofing
Standing seam and R-panel metal systems for warehouses, churches, agricultural buildings, and commercial structures. 40-70 year service life, superior wind performance for Florida hurricane zones, and options for through-fastened (R-panel more economical) or concealed-fastener standing seam (premium, no exposed screws to fail).
Silicone Roof Coatings & Restoration
For existing commercial roofs approaching end-of-life, silicone coating restoration is often 30-50% of the cost of tear-off-and-replace, extends roof life 10-15+ years, reflects heat to cut cooling bills, and can often be classified as a capex improvement rather than replacement for accounting purposes. We apply CoolStar and other commercial-grade silicone systems to metal, TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen substrates.
Modified Bitumen & EPDM Systems
Older commercial buildings often have torch-down modified bitumen or EPDM rubber membrane roofs. We repair, patch, and replace these systems. For new installs on small commercial we typically recommend TPO over these older systems but if matching an existing building, we handle them.
Commercial Maintenance Contracts
Most commercial roof failures could have been prevented with biannual inspections and minor proactive repairs. We offer preventive maintenance contracts tailored to your building typically two visits per year (pre-hurricane season in May, post-season in November) that catch small problems before they become expensive claims. Many commercial insurance policies now require documented maintenance; we provide the documentation.
