How much does a TPO roof cost per square foot?
Straight pricing for TPO and EPDM flat roofing from TruRoof, serving Greendale, IN.
You run a warehouse or commercial building in Greendale. The old flat roof is failing. You hear TPO is energy efficient and lasts a long time. But you need a real cost per square foot before you can even think about calling contractors.
A TPO roof is a single-ply membrane. It comes in white or light gray. That color reflects sunlight. It keeps your building cooler in summer. That matters in Greendale, where hot, humid summers can spike your cooling bills. EPDM is the black rubber option. It costs less upfront. Both cover flat or low-slope roofs common on commercial buildings along US Route 50 and near I-275.
For a TPO roof, total installed cost runs $5 to $9 per square foot. That includes tearing off the old roof. It includes new insulation. It includes the membrane, seams, and edge metal. EPDM runs $4 to $8 per square foot installed. The final price depends on roof size, how many penetrations you have, and insulation thickness. A simple 5,000-square-foot warehouse roof is on the lower end. A roof with lots of HVAC units costs more.
Get three quotes. Compare line items. Ask each contractor if they include tear-off, insulation, and dump fees. Some bids look cheaper because they skip those. Do not pick a contractor based on price alone. Check their references. TruRoof can give you a detailed estimate for your building. We measure your roof, check the deck, and give you a firm number. No surprises.
Once the new roof is on, you stop worrying about leaks. Your energy bills drop. Your building stays dry through spring storms and winter freezes. You have a warranty that lasts 15 to 30 years. You can focus on your business, not your roof.
What people in Greendale 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.
