Complete Commercial Roofing Systems
We install, repair, and maintain every major commercial roofing system, matching the right solution to your building’s requirements, budget, and performance expectations.
TPO Roofing Systems
Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) has become the leading choice for commercial flat roofs in Central Florida—and for good reason. TPO membranes deliver exceptional UV resistance, energy-efficient reflectivity that reduces cooling costs, and proven durability in Florida’s demanding climate. Our certified installers apply TPO systems with heat-welded seams that create watertight protection across your entire roof surface. Ideal for retail buildings, office complexes, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities throughout Orlando.
TPO Advantages:
- Superior UV and heat resistance for Florida’s intense sun exposure
- Energy Star-rated reflectivity reducing cooling costs by up to 30%
- Chemical and puncture resistance for industrial environments
- Heat-welded seams stronger than the membrane itself
- 15-30 year warranty options from major manufacturers
EPDM Roofing Systems
Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber roofing offers time-tested performance that’s protected commercial buildings for over 50 years. This synthetic rubber membrane handles temperature extremes, resists UV degradation, and provides flexibility that accommodates building movement. EPDM’s black surface absorbs heat—beneficial for climate-controlled buildings in cooler months—while white EPDM options offer reflective properties. A cost-effective solution for warehouses, storage facilities, and buildings where proven reliability matters most.
EPDM Advantages:
- Exceptional durability with 30+ year track record
- Flexibility accommodating building movement and settling
- Resistance to UV, ozone, and weathering
- Simple repair procedures when damage occurs
- Lower initial cost than many alternatives
Metal Roofing Systems
Metal roofing delivers unmatched longevity for commercial applications—routinely lasting 40-70 years with proper maintenance. Standing seam, corrugated, and architectural metal systems suit diverse commercial buildings from modern office complexes to industrial facilities. Metal roofs withstand hurricane-force winds, reflect solar heat, and require minimal maintenance throughout their extended service life. For Orlando businesses seeking maximum long-term value, metal roofing represents a smart investment.
Metal Roofing Advantages:
- 40-70 year lifespan exceeding all other commercial options
- Superior wind resistance up to 140+ mph
- Fire-resistant Class A rating
- Reflective finishes reducing cooling costs
- 100% recyclable at end of service life
Modified Bitumen Systems
Modified bitumen roofing combines the proven reliability of built-up roofing with modern polymer technology. These multi-layer systems offer excellent waterproofing, UV protection, and flexibility, with various application methods including torch-applied, cold-applied, and self-adhered options. Modified bitumen works well for buildings with moderate foot traffic and those requiring robust, economical flat roof protection. Popular throughout Orlando’s commercial and industrial sectors.
Modified Bitumen Advantages:
- Multi-layer redundancy for superior waterproofing
- Excellent performance in Florida’s heat
- Handles foot traffic for rooftop equipment access
- Proven technology with predictable performance
- Cost-effective installation and repair
Built-Up Roofing (BUR)
Built-up roofing—the original flat roofing system—remains relevant for specific commercial applications. Multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics create a continuous sealed membrane, typically topped with gravel or mineral cap sheet. BUR systems offer exceptional waterproofing and durability, particularly for buildings with significant rooftop equipment, heavy foot traffic, or industrial uses. When other systems aren’t appropriate, BUR often provides the solution.
BUR Advantages:
- Proven performance spanning over a century
- Exceptional redundancy through multiple layers
- Excellent for high-traffic rooftops
- Superior waterproofing when properly installed
- Long service life of 20-30 years
Roof Coatings & Restoration
Many commercial roofs can be extended significantly through professional coating application. Silicone, acrylic, and polyurethane coatings seal existing membranes, restore reflectivity, and add years of service life at a fraction of replacement cost. Roof restoration makes particular sense for buildings with structurally sound roofs showing surface deterioration, UV damage, or minor leaking. Our commercial team evaluates candidacy honestly—recommending restoration when appropriate and replacement when necessary.
Coating Advantages:
- 10-20 years added life at 50-70% of replacement cost
- Seamless application eliminating leak-prone joints
- Enhanced energy efficiency through reflectivity
- Minimal disruption to building operations
- Sustainable option reducing landfill waste

Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial Roofing in Orlando
How long do commercial roofs last in Orlando’s climate?
Lifespan varies by system type and maintenance quality. TPO and EPDM typically last 20-30 years. Modified bitumen and built-up systems deliver 20-30 years. Metal roofing exceeds 40-70 years. Florida’s intense UV exposure and storm activity make professional installation and regular maintenance particularly important for achieving full service life.
What’s the best commercial roofing system for Orlando buildings?
“Best” depends on your building type, budget, energy goals, and maintenance preferences. TPO offers excellent value and energy efficiency for most applications. Metal provides maximum longevity. EPDM delivers proven reliability at lower cost. We evaluate your specific situation and recommend the system that best serves your priorities.
How much does commercial roof replacement cost in Orlando?
Commercial roofing costs vary significantly based on roof size, system type, existing condition, access requirements, and project complexity. Most commercial projects range from $5-15 per square foot installed, though specialty applications and premium systems can exceed this range. We provide detailed proposals based on your specific building after thorough assessment.
Can you work around my business operations?
Absolutely. Minimizing operational disruption is fundamental to commercial roofing. We schedule work during off-peak hours when possible, phase projects to maintain building access, control noise during critical business periods, and coordinate closely with your team throughout projects. Your business continues while we protect it.
How often should commercial roofs be inspected?
We recommend professional inspections twice annually—typically spring and fall—plus additional inspections after significant weather events. Regular inspection catches developing issues before they cause leaks or require expensive repairs, extending roof life and protecting your warranty coverage.
Do you handle insurance claims for commercial storm damage?
Yes. We document storm damage thoroughly with detailed photos, measurements, and professional assessments. Our estimates meet insurance industry standards, and we communicate directly with adjusters when helpful. We’ve helped Orlando businesses recover from hurricanes, hailstorms, and wind events—guiding owners through claims processes to achieve fair settlements.
What warranties do you offer on commercial roofing?
Warranty coverage includes both manufacturer material warranties and our workmanship warranty. Manufacturer warranties range from 10-30 years depending on system type and specification level. Our workmanship warranty covers installation quality. Certified installations often qualify for enhanced manufacturer warranties with full system coverage.
Can commercial roofs be repaired, or do they always need replacement?
Many commercial roof issues can be repaired cost-effectively, particularly on systems with significant remaining service life. Localized damage, minor leaks, and wear patterns often respond well to targeted repairs. However, widespread deterioration, multiple leak locations, or systems past useful life typically warrant replacement for better long-term value. We assess honestly and recommend what actually serves your interests.
