Commercial & Industrial Flat Roof Replacement

Commercial & Industrial Flat Roofing Systems

Because of their architectural pitch, commercial and industrial buildings require special roofing materials. Flat roofing systems for commercial buildings typically consist of single-ply membrane, modified bitumen, or built-up materials. With over 50 years of commercial and industrial flat roof replacement, Guy Roofing is highly trained in properly removing outdated materials and installing new flat roofing systems.

The Flat Roof Replacement Process

The process of replacing a commercial or industrial flat roof depends on several factors. The existing roofing material, the condition it’s in, and the age of the materials all play a part in deciding the best course of action.

To determine the condition of a flat commercial or industrial roof, Guy Roofing utilizes a series of non-destructive tests. These tests demonstrate weak spots, leaks, and any issues that may affect the building’s structural integrity. Moreover, these tests are used as a benchmark for how effective the current material is in relation to its age.

After a thorough assessment, a replacement plan is customized for the work site. Outdated roofing materials can sometimes be hazardous, which means they require specific removal and disposal techniques. Guy Roofing follows the EPA’s guidelines for handling hazardous waste, and complies with all state and federal regulations on disposal. Site plans are crafted by Guy Roofing’s Director of Safety in both Spanish and English, and take all potential risk factors into account.
