How much does a TPO roof cost per square foot?
Straight answers from TruRoof, your TPO and EPDM flat roofing contractor in Fairfield, OH.
You're budgeting for a new roof on your Fairfield commercial building, maybe a warehouse off Route 4 or a retail space near The Mall at Fairfield Commons. You've heard TPO is energy-efficient, but you need a real price per square foot before you pick up the phone.
TPO and EPDM are single-ply membranes that seal flat roofs. TPO is white and reflects sunlight, which cuts down on cooling bills during Fairfield summers. EPDM is black rubber, often used in colder climates, but TPO has become the go-to for its energy savings. If you see pooling water, cracked seams, or bubbles, the membrane is failing. A full tear-off is likely the best fix.
A complete TPO roof job in Fairfield runs $5 to $9 per square foot. That price includes removing the old material, installing new insulation board, and welding the TPO seams. The cost shifts based on your building's size, the number of HVAC units or drains, and how much insulation you need to meet energy codes. Smaller roofs cost more per square foot because setup time is the same. If your decking is rotted, expect to add $1 to $2 per square foot for repairs. Also, if your building is in a busy area like Fairfield Crossings, access for trucks and equipment might affect the timeline but not the price.
Start by measuring your roof's square footage. Then call TruRoof for a free on-site measurement and estimate. You'll get a line-by-line quote so you can see exactly where the money goes. Compare that with two other local contractors. Don't just pick the lowest number—make sure they're using the same membrane thickness and insulation R-value. A cheap job now costs more in repairs later.
Once the new roof is on, your building stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Energy bills drop. You won't have to worry about leaks during spring storms. The roof comes with a 20-year manufacturer warranty. You can get back to running your business without roofing headaches.
What people in Fairfield say
"I'm reviewing my two new roofs, on my house and my garage, installed by TruRoof. The company, and Damon Chuke, their representative, helped me work with the insurance company, and with understanding all the details of the whole process. They took out an obsolete chimney, were on time and professional, and the finished roofs and flashing are beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended by me."
"We have a beautiful condo in a historic building from the 1840s. Late November had a bad leak in the dining room area. I called Britt at TruRoof who came out and inspected the entire roof of the building. He said to do the entire roof could be around $50,000. But then he started laughing and said you need to caulk the area around one of the chimneys. I thought he was nuts, but I did the caulking, which cost me about 25 bucks worth of outdoor caulk, and there are no more leaks. I cannot express my appreciation for his diligence and his honesty. That kind of a company and a person is rare these days. Highly, highly, highly recommend these guys."
"TruRoof did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication leading up to the start date was great. Once on site and the project started, everything went as discussed, and the crew was very professional."

standing water on flat roof
Standing water on a flat roof is a sign of a drainage problem. A commercial roofer can check the drains, fix low spots, and seal the membrane. Left alone, ponding water can lead to leaks and structural damage.
small tear in TPO roof repair
Do not tape it. A small tear can let water in and ruin insulation. Wind can peel it open. A professional heat-weld repair is fast and permanent. Fix it now before it becomes a big leak and a big bill.
