Commercial roofing is the installation, repair, and maintenance of roofing systems on flat or low-slope buildings, protecting Paterson businesses from hot, humid summers and freeze-thaw cycles that cause cracking and leaks. A well-built commercial roof keeps operations running through Nor'easters and heavy thunderstorms.

Commercial roofing is a different animal than residential. It uses materials like TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen, each with its own lifespan and cost. TPO is a single-ply membrane that reflects heat, which cuts cooling bills during Paterson's hot, humid summers. EPDM is a rubber membrane that handles freeze-thaw cycles without splitting. Modified bitumen is rolled asphalt, tough against heavy rain and wind.

The process starts with a tear-off or a recover, depending on deck condition. If the deck has rot or decay, we tear off to the substrate. If it's sound, we overlay with a new membrane. The cost depends on square footage, roof pitch, and the number of penetrations like vents or HVAC units. A 5,000-square-foot flat roof runs $15,000 to $30,000; a steep-slope commercial roof with shingles costs more.

You need commercial roofing when your building's roof shows granule loss, sag, or end-of-life wear. Water that seeps through the membrane wicks into insulation, erodes the deck, and leads to interior damage. We fix leaks, patch punctures, and replace entire systems, all with ring-shank nails and self-adhered flashing at the edges.

Standing water on flat sections that doesn't drain within 48 hours.
Flashing peeling or pulling away from walls and parapets.
Ice dams forming at the eaves in winter, forcing water under the membrane.
A musty smell inside the building, signaling trapped moisture and possible rot.
