Commercial Roofing

Here at McAmis Roofing & Construction, we not only offer the best quality work in residential roofing and repair, but we also offer commercial roofing services as well. Commercial roofing is entirely different than residential roofing. If you have knowledge of residential roofing, that’s great. But it can’t be applied to commercial. Types of roof, methods of install, and also of repair are a whole other animal than that of a residential property.

Roof installs for commercial properties take considerably longer than residential. Commercial can take up to a month while residential might be done in a day or two. Why? Because of the type of roofing systems involved and the size of the buildings. While they are more difficult to install, however, our trained professionals have the skills required to move your commercial roofing project along with confidence. 

Commercial roofing systems can consist of many different categories. From single-ply, sprayed polyurethane foam, restoration coatings, flat metal, there are many different things to work with. Our staff at McAmis can help you decide what roofing system is best for your property.

• Single-ply – The majority of single-ply systems are rolled out materials that are affixed to the roof with glue, heat, or tape. Single-ply is considered highly reflective and can help with energy efficiency. However, their seams are prone to leaks. 
• Spray Foam – If installed correctly and maintained properly, spray foam roofing systems can last up to forty years. Spray foam offers good insulation properties and works well to protect against outdoor elements.
• Restoration Coatings – Restoration coatings are applied over the top of an existing roof. A positive to this choice is that they are seamless and reduce leaks, water ponding, and other damage you might get from the elements. This system is considered very affordable based on the benefits they offer.
• Flat Metal – Metal roofs have been around for a long time, probably because they last a long time. While they are great at resisting the elements, metal roofs can eventually develop problems with rust that lead to leaks. They also lack insulation properties.

If you own or manage a commercial building and discover a leaky roof, you’ll want to call a professional right away. Tenants within the building have businesses they are operating, and while it can happen to any building, a leaky roof can be an embarrassing situation for a business owner. A McAmis team member can inspect the issue and offer suggestions into the best approach for patching or other repairs. 

In commercial buildings, a leak may indicate an underlying issue within the entire roofing system and further action may need to be taken. Solutions could range from a simple patch to a full protective coating. Flashing or other elements may be in play as well. 

This is why it’s always a good idea to have a respectable commercial roofer like McAmis Roofing & Construction on speed-dial if you own or operate a commercial property. Let the experts guide you towards the best solution. We are here for you!
