Why Commercial Roof Replacement vs Repairs?

All roofs have a lifespan. Over time, even the best-maintained systems wear out due to age, weather, and environmental stress. Eventually, repairs become more frequent, more expensive, and less effective. At that point, a full roof replacement becomes necessary and cost-effective.

In addition to solving structural problems, replacing your commercial roof offers other benefits. New materials can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs. Moreover, a clean, updated roof boosts curb appeal and adds long-term value to your property. A replacement ensures your building stays dry, safe, and operational.

Industries We Serve

At Hardesty Roofing, we understand that no two commercial buildings are alike. Every industry faces unique demands, challenges, and priorities. That’s why we tailor every commercial roof replacement to meet each client's specific needs.

Industrial Facilities Roof

Industrial buildings often have large, flat roofs that endure daily stress from heavy machinery, rooftop equipment, and extreme temperatures. Because of these conditions, industrial roofing systems must be built to last. We install durable, weather-resistant systems that can withstand intense use while helping control energy costs.

Additionally, many industrial facilities operate around the clock. That’s why we coordinate closely with property managers to schedule work that limits disruptions. Whether you manage a manufacturing plant, warehouse, or logistics center, we’ll deliver a roofing solution that supports your operations without slowing them down.

Institutional Properties

Schools, hospitals, churches, and government buildings have different needs than traditional businesses. These structures require safe, low-maintenance roofing systems that comply with strict building codes and budget guidelines.

Institutional roofs often cover large areas and must perform consistently in all weather conditions. Moreover, buildings like schools and healthcare facilities cannot afford unexpected shutdowns due to leaks or emergency repairs. That’s why we recommend and install roofing systems with long lifespans, low upkeep, and proven reliability.

We also understand the importance of communication when working in occupied spaces. Our team works quietly and efficiently to ensure minimal disruption for staff, students, patients, or the public. From project planning to cleanup, we treat institutional spaces with the care and professionalism they deserve.

Commercial Offices and Retail Buildings

Office complexes and retail centers rely on a professional appearance to attract tenants and customers. A failing roof can lead to unsightly water stains, foul odors, or even safety hazards—none of which inspire confidence.

We help commercial property owners and facility managers protect their buildings and maintain property value with sleek, modern roofing solutions that complement their business goals. Whether you're replacing the roof of a shopping center, multi-tenant building, or stand-alone office, we’ll help you choose materials that balance durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetics.

New Construction Projects

If you’re building a commercial property from the ground up, you need a roofing partner who can get it right the first time. At Hardesty Roofing, we work directly with builders, general contractors, and developers to install high-performance roofing systems that meet deadlines and budget requirements.

Because the roof plays such a critical role in energy efficiency and long-term maintenance, choosing the right system during new construction is key. Fortunately, our experienced team offers valuable insight into design compatibility, product selection, and installation best practices. With our help, your project will be set up for long-term success from day one.

Types of Commercial Roofing Systems

Every commercial roof has unique requirements, which is why we offer a wide selection of materials tailored to fit different structures and industries.

TPO Roofing (Thermoplastic Polyolefin)

TPO is one of the most popular commercial roofing options today. It’s lightweight, energy-efficient, and highly resistant to UV rays and chemical exposure. Its white surface reflects sunlight, helping reduce air conditioning costs—especially in large buildings.

EPDM Roofing (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer)

EPDM is a durable rubber roofing membrane ideal for low-slope roofs. Known for its flexibility and weather resistance, it performs well in both hot and cold climates. This material also offers an excellent life expectancy and low maintenance costs.

Modified Bitumen Roofing

Modified bitumen is a time-tested system that combines layers of asphalt with reinforcing materials. It provides outstanding waterproofing and durability, making it perfect for high-traffic flat roofs or areas with variable temperatures.

Built-Up Roofing (BUR)

Built-up roofing has been a go-to solution for decades. It consists of multiple layers of asphalt and fabric, often topped with gravel. This multi-ply approach creates a thick, weather-resistant surface that easily handles foot traffic and extreme weather.

Metal Roofing

Metal is one of the longest-lasting commercial roofing materials. It offers fire resistance, energy efficiency, and a clean, professional appearance. Standing seam metal roofs are especially popular for commercial applications due to their sleek design and exceptional durability.

PVC Roofing (Polyvinyl Chloride)

PVC is similar to TPO in appearance and energy performance but offers added chemical resistance. This makes it an excellent choice for restaurants, factories, and other facilities where exposure to grease or industrial byproducts is a concern.
