Ponding Water

Ponding water occurs when insufficient drainage or inconsistent insulation results in water buildup on flat or low-slope roofs, accelerating membrane deterioration and the development of leaks. We tackle this problem by regrading the surface with tapered insulation, clearing any blockages in the drains, and applying waterproof coatings to guarantee proper runoff and avert future pooling.


Flashing Failure

Poorly installed flashing around vents, HVAC units, or edges often leads to water intrusion and interior leaks. We meticulously remove compromised flashing, reseal or replace it with high-quality metal or TPO-compatible materials, and strengthen seams to ensure enduring waterproof protection.


Damaged Roofing Membrane

Over time, roof membranes may suffer from cracking, blistering, or puncturing due to various factors including UV exposure, foot traffic, and fluctuations in temperature. Our team employs thorough patching, seam resealing, and infrared moisture scanning to identify weak spots and reinstate a watertight barrier, all without the need for a full replacement.




Storm or Tree Impact Damage

Intense winds, broken branches, and storm debris can cause punctures, ripped membranes, and serious roof damage. Our specialists conduct emergency assessments, remove debris, reinforce affected areas, and perform thorough membrane restoration or panel replacement to bring your roof back to its original condition.

How Much Does Commercial Roof Replacement Cost?

The cost of repairing a commercial flat roof in Paramount typically ranges from $6 to $18 per square foot, fluctuating based on the roofing system, building size, and complexity. TPO, EPDM, and PVC roofs generally average between $7 and $15 per square foot, while Built-Up (BUR), Modified Bitumen, and Metal systems can increase to $16 to $22 per square foot for premium materials and multilayer protection. In an average commercial roof replacement project, materials account for about 40 to 50% of total costs, with labor making up 30 to 40%. Various factors, such as roof accessibility, necessary tear-offs, and local regulations, can impact pricing.

Typical Cost Range Per Square Foot:

EPDM (rubber membrane) $6.00 – $14.00
Single-Ply PVC $8.00 – $15.00
Modified Bitumen $9.50 – $16.00

How Long Does a Commercial Roof Replacement Take?

A standard roof replacement project typically takes anywhere from five days to four weeks, depending on factors such as the size of the roof, the materials used, and the intricacy of the project. Single-ply systems, including TPO, PVC, and EPDM, are generally quicker to install, often completed within one to two weeks. On the other hand, multi-layer systems like BUR, modified bitumen, or metal roofing usually necessitate a longer duration due to the complexities inherent in their installation.
