Commercial
Roofing
Your commercial building’s roofing system affects energy consumption, indoor climate control, and the establishment’s ability to withstand weather conditions. It also influences, repairs, and potential replacements.
At Maximum Construction, we provide durable and energy-efficient roofing solutions tailored to your needs. Our team has extensive experience installing various systems that maximize building protection while minimizing long-term costs.
How To Choose the Right Roofing System
Below are consideration that building owners should evaluate to select the most suitable commercial roofing system for their needs:
- Building Use & Occupancy
The type of business or activity inside the building affects roofing requirements. A manufacturing facility may need a roofing system resistant to chemicals or heat, whereas a corporate building will typically prioritize thermal and sound insulation. Understanding your establishment’s specific needs will help determine durability needs and potential exposure risks.
- Local Climate & Weather Conditions
Roofing materials perform differently depending on the climate. Buildings in sunny areas benefit from reflective roofing to reduce cooling costs. In cooler or wetter climates, materials like metal may be more suitable to protect against snow, ice, and moisture penetration.
- Energy Effeciency Goals
Many business strive to reduce their energy consumption to lower costs and meet environmental standards. Roofing systems with reflective surfaces or insulation capabilities help maintain indoor temperatures, reducing heating and cooling loads.
- Budget & Lifecycle Cost
The upfront cost is important, but the total expenses over the roof’s life should always taken into account. Durable systems with longer warranties may initially cost more, but you’ll get reduced maintenance and replacement expenses. In other words, evaluating the lifecycle cost of a roofing system ensures that it’s financially sustainable.
- Installation & Disruption Tolerance
The time and complexity of installation can affect business operations. Some roofing systems require fast and straightforward installation to minimize downtime, while others may take longer or require specialized tools. Additionally, careful scheduling and coordination with contractors can help reduce disruption.
Our Commercial Roofing Solutions
Maximum Construction offers the following commercial systems:
Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM)
EPDM is a durable synthetic rubber roofing membrane known as its excellent flexibility and resistance to UV rays and ozone. It performs well in extreme weather conditions and is deal for low-slope commercial roofs. It’s also cost-effective and easy to maintain, making it a popular choice for warehouses and office buildings.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
PVC roofing is a flexible, reinforced membrane known for its strong chemical and fire resistance. It provides exceptional seam strength due to heat-welding and performs well in buildings exposed to grease, oils, and other chemicals. PVC roofs are also durable and energy-efficient, with a lifespan comparable to that of premium roofing materials.
Thermoplastic Olefin (TPO)
TPO is a single-ply roofing membrane made from a blend of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene rubber. It features heat-welded seams for superior waterproofing and is extremely reflective, which helps reduce energy costs. It’s also resistant to mold, dirt, and punctures, making it suitable for energy-conscious property managers and owners.
Metal
Metal roofing systems use steel, aluminum, or other metals that offer high durability and fire resistance. They have a long service life (often lasting 40 to 60 years) and withstand harsh weather conditions, including heavy snow and strong winds. These roofs come in various styles, such as standing seam and corrugated panels, which are suitable for industrial and commercial buildings.
