Commercial roofing is a different discipline from residential. Flat and low-slope systems (TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing) each have specific installation requirements and performance characteristics. Great Lakes Roofing & Maintenance installs and repairs all of them across Great Lakes.
TPO is our most-installed commercial membrane in Great Lakes. White reflective surface for energy efficiency, hot-air welded seams that are stronger than the membrane itself, and 15-20 year manufacturer warranties. We install 60-mil and 80-mil systems, fully adhered or mechanically attached, over polyiso insulation.
Our Commercial Roofing Process
Commercial Roof Assessment
Our inspector walks your commercial roof and documents every issue: ponding areas, seam failures, flashing deterioration, clogged drains, and UV damage. Photos and measurements provided in a report you can share with your property manager or ownership.
Project Proposal
Commercial roofing proposals from Great Lakes Roofing & Maintenance include detailed specs, phasing plan if applicable, tenant coordination plan, and a realistic timeline. One number, no surprises.
Expert Crew
Installation phased to minimize disruption to your tenants and business operations. Debris containment, noise management, and clean work areas maintained throughout the project. Project manager on-site for every commercial installation.
Warranty & Maintenance
Final roof inspection with photo documentation. Warranty paperwork provided. We recommend an annual maintenance plan to catch issues early and maintain warranty compliance.
