Flat roofs on large commercial buildings take a beating. UV exposure, standing water, temperature swings, foot traffic from HVAC techs - it all adds up. When a roof starts showing its age, the seams lift, the surface granules wear off, and water finds its way in. At that point, patching only buys so much time.

Here's what we were working with on this one - a 15,000 sq. ft. commercial flat roof that had clearly seen better days. The old surface was oxidized, worn down, and no longer doing its job the way it should. This building needed a full system, not a band-aid.

We installed a new granulated modified bitumen torch-down roofing system across the entire surface. Modified bit is one of the most reliable options for commercial flat roofing. The torch-down process heat-welds the membrane directly to the substrate, creating a tight, seamless bond that holds up against moisture, foot traffic, and whatever weather throws at it. The granulated cap sheet on top adds an extra layer of UV and impact resistance.

What you end up with is a roof that's built to perform for years without constant attention. No more chasing leaks. No more emergency calls after every storm. Just a clean, solid system that protects everything underneath it.

A roof this size is a serious investment in the building's long-term performance. If your commercial property is dealing with an aging flat roof, getting eyes on it sooner rather than later can save a lot of money down the road.
