Services
Ballasted Roofing
Ballasted roofing systems use stone or pavers to secure EPDM membranes, offering durability and cost-effectiveness. This solution provides excellent weather resistance while reducing installation costs through minimal fasteners. Ideal for large commercial buildings in Midwest climates requiring sustainable, low-maintenance roofing with extended lifespan.
Fully-Adhered Roofing
Fully-adhered systems use bonded EPDM membranes for superior waterproofing and wind uplift protection. This method creates a seamless barrier with enhanced energy efficiency and reduced condensation. Particularly suitable for buildings requiring quiet, durable roofing with easy leak detection and 25-30 year lifespan.
Metal Retrofit Systems
Metal retrofit solutions transform existing steel roofs with custom insulation and EPDM membranes. This cost-effective alternative to full replacement improves energy efficiency while maintaining structural integrity. Ideal for aging industrial facilities seeking durable, environmentally-friendly roofing upgrades with minimal disruption.
TPO Roofing
TPO roofing systems provide energy-efficient solutions with heat-welded seams and UV-reflective surfaces. Available in multiple colors, these lightweight membranes offer excellent durability and LEED points. Particularly popular for large-scale buildings prioritizing sustainability and cost-effective installation in moderate climate zones.
Architectural Sheet Metal
Custom sheet metal fabrication includes standing seam roofs, composite panels, and perimeter edge systems. Our precision craftsmanship ensures watertight installations with aesthetic appeal. Services cover both functional components like coping and decorative facade elements for commercial buildings requiring durable, code-compliant metal solutions.
