Commercial roofing in Houston is mostly flat or low-slope membrane work: TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen. The buildings are larger, the stakeholders are different (property managers, building owners, lenders, insurers), and the documentation requirements are stricter. The actual work isn’t harder than residential — but the coordination is.
Our commercial sweet spot: strip centers (5,000-50,000 sq ft), small offices (under 50,000 sq ft), retail buildings, restaurants, light industrial, and small mixed-use. Up to about 100,000 sq ft per project. Beyond that, we partner with larger commercial specialists.
What makes our commercial work different from a residential job:
Multi-tenant retail with 5K-50K sq ft TPO or modified bitumen roofs. Drainage challenges around HVAC, signage, and stairwells. Tenant disruption planning critical.
Single or multi-tenant office with flat or low-slope roof. Often with rooftop HVAC. Documentation requirements for insurance and lender.
High HVAC penetration density (kitchen exhaust, makeup air, walk-in coolers). Grease accumulation around exhaust hoods affects maintenance. Health code requirements.
Larger membrane roofs, sometimes standing seam metal. Loading dock proximity, equipment penetrations, longer drainage runs. Modified bitumen still common on older buildings.
Combinations of flat and sloped sections, retail below office or residential. Multi-material installations. Coordination across tenant types.
Silicone or acrylic restoration coatings applied over existing TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen. Adds 10-15 years of life at a fraction of replacement cost. Tax-advantaged.
Houston rain volume on large flat roofs. A 50,000 sq ft flat roof receiving 4″ of rain in an hour handles 12,500 cubic feet of water. Drainage capacity, scupper sizing, and overflow planning all need to handle worst-case rain events. Inadequate drainage causes ponding, accelerated aging, and seam failures.
HVAC and equipment penetrations. Commercial roofs have far more penetrations than residential — exhaust fans, AC units, plumbing vents, makeup air, signage anchors. Each penetration is a potential leak point. Proper flashing and curb detailing is the most important quality marker on commercial work.
Insurance and lender documentation. Commercial property insurance often requires documented annual or quarterly inspections to maintain coverage. Commercial mortgages similarly require maintenance documentation. We provide formal condition reports suitable for insurance and lender records.
Tenant disruption planning. Active commercial tenants can’t close for roof work. We schedule around business hours, isolate work zones with safety barriers, and coordinate noise-generating work for off-hours when possible.
Tax considerations. Roof repairs are typically deductible in the year incurred; replacements are typically capitalized over the building’s depreciation schedule. Restoration coatings often qualify as repair (immediate deduction) rather than replacement (multi-year amortization). Worth discussing with your accountant.
Yes. We work strip centers, small offices (under 50,000 sq ft), retail buildings, light industrial, and small mixed-use. Our maximum project size is approximately 100,000 sq ft. Beyond that, we partner with larger commercial specialists.
TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen for flat/low-slope. Standing seam metal for sloped commercial. Built-up roofing (BUR) for matching older installations. We don’t install built-up new — modern alternatives are better — but we’ll match it for restoration work.
Commercial claims often involve property managers and absentee owners. Documentation is more important; turnaround expectations are different; coverage details matter (replacement cost vs actual cash value, business interruption coverage). We coordinate with property managers and adjusters as part of our commercial process.
Yes. We honor manufacturer warranties on TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen even when we didn’t install the original. We can also extend or modify warranties through manufacturer programs.
Yes. Quarterly inspections for commercial customers (vs twice-yearly residential). More extensive documentation. Faster response SLA. Designed to support insurance and lender requirements that often mandate documented maintenance.
Same-day for active leaks during business hours. After-hours emergency dispatch available for property managers under maintenance contract. Major events (hurricane, hail) trigger queue management — maintenance customers prioritized.
