Four Systems

Commercial Roofing Services In Hammond By System

Pick the system by the roof itself. Commercial roofing services in Hammond start with slope, seams, and the building underneath.

TPO Roofing

Roof Slope
Flat to low slope
Seams
Heat-welded
Color
White, reflective

Reflective membrane for big flat roofs, with seams welded into one sheet and fewer laps per square because the rolls run wide over warehouse and retail fields.

Replacement

Commercial Roof Replacement

When repairs keep failing, we replace the roof with one of the four systems above. The old layers, deck, and drains decide how the job is built.

Replacement starts with core cuts. If more than one roof already sits on the deck, or the insulation is wet across wide areas, the old layers come off down to the deck. If one dry layer remains and the deck is firm, a recover over it can save tear-off cost.

Crews open only the area they can rebuild before leaving, so the building stays closed in each night. Drains are reset to the new roof height, every curb is reflashed, and new edge metal finishes the perimeter.

  • Rusted deck panels replaced or plated before insulation goes down
  • Tapered insulation added where water used to pond
  • Drain bowls and clamping rings reset to the new roof height
  • New edge metal and coping on every parapet
Membrane Choice

TPO Or EPDM For A Flat Roof

The two membranes cover most flat roofs we replace. They differ in color, seams, and how they behave in summer and winter.

How The Work Runs

How Commercial Roofing Services In Hammond Get Scheduled

From the first call to the last walkthrough, the same four stages apply to every system.

  1. Call And Describe The Building

    Tell us the address, the roof type if you know it, and where water shows up inside. That decides who walks the roof and what they bring.

  2. Roof Visit With Core Cuts

    The roofer checks drains, curbs, edges, and seams, cuts small cores to read the layers, and photographs what matters for the scope.

  3. Scope, Price, And Start Date

    You receive a line-item scope and price, and the start date is set around deliveries, tenants, and the weather window for that system.

  4. Install, Inspect, And Hand Over

    Sections are torn off and closed in each day, seams are probed, and the roof is walked with your manager at the end.

Quick Answers

Questions About Our Commercial Roofing Services In Hammond

Do you replace commercial roofs or only install new ones?

Both, every system

Both. Most of our work is replacing worn roofs on existing buildings with TPO, EPDM, or metal, and the same crews install roofs on additions and new buildings. Replacement always starts with core cuts so the scope matches what is under the membrane.

Can a new roof go over the old one instead of a tear-off?

Sometimes, if dry

Yes, when only one roof is on the deck, the insulation tests dry, and the deck is firm. A recover saves tear-off and disposal cost. Two existing roofs or wet insulation mean the old layers come off first.

Which roof system lasts longest on a commercial building?

Upkeep decides it

Membrane thickness, drainage, foot traffic, and upkeep matter more than the brand name. A well-drained 60-mil TPO or EPDM roof with walkway pads and yearly checks outlasts a thicker one that holds water. Standing-seam metal with hidden fasteners needs the least routine work.

How long does a commercial roof replacement take?

Days to weeks

It follows roof size, layers to remove, deck repairs, and weather. A small office roof can be done in a few working days, while a large warehouse runs in sections over several weeks. The scope lists the sequence so tenants know which area is next.

Do you work on roofs with heavy rooftop equipment?

Yes, with planning

Yes. Units are flashed in place where curbs are tall enough, and raised or set on new curbs where they are too low for the new roof height. Lifts and disconnects are coordinated with your mechanical contractor ahead of the roofing days.

Do you install roofs on new commercial buildings?

Yes, new and additions

New buildings and additions get the same four systems. The roof is detailed from the drawings, coordinated with the steel erector and mechanical contractor, and installed once the deck is ready and inspected.

What does a commercial roof estimate include?

A line-item scope

The estimate lists the system, membrane thickness or panel type, insulation, tear-off or recover, deck repair allowance, flashing at each curb and wall, drains, edge metal, and walkway pads, each with its own line.

Can a roof be replaced in phases over several years?

Yes, by section

Large roofs can be split into sections priced separately, so the worst areas are replaced first and the rest follows in later budget years. Each finished section is tied in to the old roof until its neighbor is done.
