What Makes Commercial Roofing Different From Residential?
Commercial roofs are typically flat or low-slope, cover much larger areas, and involve more complex drainage, HVAC penetrations, and code requirements than residential roofing. Scheduling also matters more — commercial projects are planned to minimize disruption to tenants, customers, and daily operations.

What To Expect
We work around your operating hours where possible, document everything for facility managers and property owners, and handle permitting for commercial-scale projects. Drainage and ponding management are a bigger factor on large flat roofs, and we plan for that from the inspection stage.
Commercial Roofing — In Depth
TPO, Modified Bitumen & Built-Up Roofing (BUR)
Most low-slope commercial buildings use one of three membrane systems: heat-welded TPO, torch- or cold-applied modified bitumen, or multi-ply built-up roofing with a gravel or cap-sheet surface. Each has a different service life, repair method, and cost profile — we specify the system based on the building’s deck type, drainage, rooftop equipment load, and your budget, not a one-size-fits-all default.
Rooftop Equipment & Penetration Management
Commercial roofs carry HVAC units, exhaust fans, conduit runs, satellite mounts, and skylights — every one of those is a penetration point where flashing can fail. A commercial roofing plan has to account for future equipment access and maintenance traffic, not just the membrane itself, or you end up re-flashing the same penetration every few years.
Minimizing Business Disruption During Re-Roofs
Commercial re-roofing on an occupied building means coordinating around business hours, tenant access, parking lot staging, and noise restrictions. We phase larger commercial projects section-by-section and schedule the loudest work (tear-off, mechanical fastening) around your operating hours so the property stays functional throughout the project.
Commercial Roof Maintenance Programs
A scheduled inspection and maintenance program — checking seams, drains, flashing, and membrane condition twice a year — is the single biggest factor in getting a commercial roof to its full rated lifespan. Deferred maintenance is the most common reason commercial roofs fail years before their membrane warranty expires.

“Ricketts handled our roof repair after a bad storm and made the whole process easy — showed up when they said they would, explained what was actually wrong, and kept the property clean every day. Would recommend them to anyone in South Florida.”
