If your building has a flat or low-slope roof, check after a rain. Water may sit in puddles for more than 48 hours. You might see seams lifting where sheets of membrane meet. Inside, ceiling tiles near the roof drains turn brown and sag. Gravel or coating may be washing off the surface. If the roof is over 20 years old, the membrane is near the end of its life.

Every storm leaves wet ceiling tiles and a damp smell in the office. You move boxes and desks away from drip spots. Tenants or employees complain about the buckets. You avoid scheduling new shelving or lighting because the roof might leak on it. The building's cooling costs rise because wet insulation stops working. Your maintenance crew patches the same spots and the leaks come back.

TruRoof tears off the old membrane down to the deck. The crew cuts out wet insulation and bags it. TruRoof screws down new insulation boards and a cover board. The crew rolls out a new single-ply membrane and heat-welds the seams. TruRoof flashes every pipe, drain, HVAC curb, and roof edge. The crew registers the manufacturer warranty after the final inspection. Snow removal and coatings are separate if you want them later.

When the roof is done, you can walk the surface and see clean white membrane. No more buckets in the office. You can repaint the ceiling tiles and they will stay dry. Your HVAC units sit on new curbs and tight flashing. Tenants and employees stop reporting leaks. The building owner can move on to the next project.

Our process

1
Tear off old membrane and wet insulation
Crew cuts and removes the failing membrane and any insulation that has absorbed water.
2
Inspect and repair the roof deck
Crew checks the deck for rust or rot and patches or replaces sections that won't hold a new roof.
3
Install new insulation and cover board
Crew fastens rigid insulation boards across the roof and screws down a cover board for a smooth base.
4
Heat-weld or adhere the new membrane
Crew rolls out the new single-ply membrane and heat-welds or glues the seams so water can't get through.
5
Flash all penetrations and edges
Crew seals around pipes, drains, HVAC units, and roof edges with the same membrane material.
6
Clear drains and remove debris
Crew clears debris, checks that drains flow, and hauls old materials off the site.

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.

The roof leaks every time it rains and the ceiling tiles are stained again. Buckets catch water in the back office and the smell won't go away. You keep putting off the full replacement because you know it will shut down part of the building.

Roof problems we fix

Can you reroof over an existing flat roofTear-off is expensive and disruptive. You want to know if a recover over the existing roof is allowed and smart.A recover works when there is one roof layer and dry insulation. A core sample tells us in an hour.

How much does a commercial roof costYou manage a building and need a real budget number for a flat roof replacement before you take it to ownership.We price by square footage, system and insulation and give you a written proposal you can put in front of the board.

Old flat roof keeps leaking after multiple repairsYour commercial flat roof is 30 years old. You have patched it three times in two years, but water still finds a way in. You are frustrated and worried about inventory damage.When a roof fails despite repeated repairs, the membrane is likely shot. Get a core sample to check insulation. If it is wet, a full replacement or a silicone restoration coating may be needed. Stop wasting money on patches.

How to choose a roofing contractorYou need a new roof. You are scared of picking a bad contractor who will cut corners, take your money, or disappear if something goes wrong. You do not know what questions to ask.Ask for a local address and a written estimate. Check that they have insurance and a license. Read reviews and ask for references. A good contractor will walk you through the job, not just hand you a number. Get at least three quotes before you decide.

TPO vs EPDM for flat commercial roofYour flat commercial roof is failing. You hear different things about TPO and EPDM. You don't know which one is right for your building.TPO is white and reflects heat, which helps cooling costs in summer. EPDM is black rubber and handles ponding water well. For most Cincinnati commercial buildings, TPO is the default choice. Get a roof assessment to match the membrane to your roof's slope and drainage.

Roof coating vs full replacement for flat roofYour flat roof is aging but not completely gone. You've heard about coatings. You don't know if a coating will actually buy you time or if you're just throwing money away.Coatings work when the roof is still structurally sound and the membrane is intact. If there are multiple leaks, ponding, or wet insulation underneath, a coating won't fix it. Get a moisture scan and a core sample before deciding.
