Commercial Roof Replacement Contractors in Salt Lake City

‍Commercial Roof Replacement Tailored for Salt Lake City Buildings

Salt Lake City’s commercial buildings — from retail centers and apartment complexes to churches and warehouses — face a tough mix of weather challenges. Heavy winter snow, spring hail storms, summer UV, and canyon winds all take a toll. Over time, even quality roofs may leak, lose integrity, or fail to meet evolving code or insulation standards. That’s when you need dependable and experienced commercial roof replacement contractors in Salt Lake City.

Our crews work efficiently, communicate clearly, and minimize disruption for tenants and tenants’ businesses. If your building is showing age, leaks, or signs of wear — or you simply want a roof upgrade that lasts — we’re ready to help.

Full-Scope Commercial Roof Replacement Services in Salt Lake City

We offer a full menu of services designed for large‑scale roof replacement — from evaluation to finish — covering all major commercial roof types and ensuring robust long-term protection.

Complete Tear-Off & Roof Deck Inspection

Before installing a new roof, we remove all existing layers to inspect the roof deck and structure.

• Check for rot, warping, or structural damage.
• Assess insulation, ventilation paths, and water barrier integrity.
• Repair or replace damaged decking to ensure a solid base for the new roof system.

This step ensures the new roof isn’t just replacing the surface, but re‑building the foundation — essential for longevity in Salt Lake’s climate.

Premium Membrane & Flat Roof Systems Installation

For flat and low-slope commercial roofs we offer high-quality membrane systems that perform under snow, rain, and UV. Options include:

• TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) — energy-efficient and heat-welded seams for watertight protection.
• PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) — chemical-resistant and durable for industrial or commercial use.
• EPDM rubber roofing — flexible and reliable for varying temperature swings.
• Modified Bitumen or Built-Up Roof (BUR) systems — for multi-layer durability and long-term resilience.

Each system is chosen based on building type, usage, and maintenance expectations.

Metal Roof Systems for Commercial & Industrial Use

For sloped commercial buildings, warehouses, and industrial facilities — or wherever long-term durability matters — we install metal roof systems:

• Standing‑seam steel or aluminum roofs for strong snow-shedding and wind resistance.
• Corrugated metal or exposed-fastener panels for utility buildings, garages, or warehouses.
• Copper or other premium metal options for architectural or high-end structures requiring longevity and aesthetics.

Metal roofs offer decades of service with minimal maintenance and superior resistance to hail and thermal expansion.

Roof Coating & Restoration Options

If a full replacement isn’t immediately required — but the roof is aging — we offer coating and restoration services to extend roof life and improve performance.

• Silicone or elastomeric coatings to seal minor cracks and waterproof surfaces.
• Reflective coatings for flat roofs to reduce heat absorption and improve energy efficiency.
• Preventive maintenance plans that include inspection, sealant reapplication, and minor roof repair work to delay full roof replacement when feasible.

This is often a cost-effective interim solution for property owners managing multiple buildings or steady occupancy.

Commercial Roofing Replacement for Every Building Type

Our experience covers a broad range of commercial properties throughout Salt Lake City, including:

• Retail centers, strip malls, and shopping plazas
• Multi‑unit apartment buildings and HOAs
• Office buildings and mixed‑use properties
• Schools, churches, and nonprofit facilities
• Warehouses, storage units, and light industrial spaces
• Restaurants, hospitality, and mixed‑use commercial/residential properties

No matter the building type, we adapt the replacement plan — from material and insulation choices to drainage, flashing, and code compliance — to match the property’s needs.

What Salt Lake City Property Managers Ask About Roof Replacements

Commercial roof replacement isn’t something you deal with every day — so it’s normal to have questions. Below are answers to some of the most common ones we get from local building owners and facility managers:

How do I know if my commercial roof needs to be replaced?

You’ll know your commercial roof needs to be replaced if you’re seeing persistent leaks, membrane damage, ponding water, or visible deterioration like cracking or blistering. If repairs are becoming more frequent and less effective, a full replacement is often the better long-term solution.

What types of commercial roofing systems do you replace?

The types of commercial roofing systems we replace include TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, built-up roofing (BUR), and metal systems like standing-seam or corrugated steel. We help you choose the right system based on your building’s slope, insulation needs, and use case.

How long does a commercial roof replacement take?

A commercial roof replacement typically takes between a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on roof size, complexity, and weather. We provide a clear timeline upfront and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business or tenants.

Will tenants or operations be affected during the replacement?

Yes, some disruption is possible during commercial roof replacement, but we work closely with property managers to minimize impact. We can schedule work in phases, outside of peak business hours, or in coordination with tenants to keep things running smoothly.

Do you offer warranties on commercial roof replacements?

We do offer warranties on commercial roof replacements — including a lifetime workmanship warranty and extended manufacturer warranties depending on the system chosen. You’ll get full documentation after the final walkthrough.

Can you help with insurance claims for storm-damaged commercial roofs?

Yes, we help with insurance claims for storm-damaged commercial roofs. Our team has handled hundreds of insurance-based projects and will walk you through the documentation, inspection, and negotiation process to maximize your coverage.
