Top Commercial Roofing Options
High-performance commercial roofing materials designed to withstand Michigan’s toughest weather and deliver long-lasting protection.
Asphalt / Built-Up Roof
A classic for many businesses. These roofs use layers of asphalt and gravel for long-lasting protection. They are durable, great at deflecting UV rays, and can last 15–20 years with proper care. (Note: Gravel needs maintenance over time!)
Liquid Roof Coatings
If your roof has seen better days but doesn’t need a full replacement, liquid coatings (like elastomeric acrylic) seal, waterproof, and extend the life of your roof at a fraction of the cost. A re-coating every 5–10 years keeps things in shape.
Rubber / EPDM Roof
Lightweight, flexible, and tough. EPDM handles Michigan’s changing temperatures like a champ and resists cracking or peeling. Ideal for flat roofs, it can last up to 25 years with regular maintenance.
Thermoplastic (TPO)
Known for being bright white and highly reflective, perfect for energy savings. TPO is resistant to UV damage and fire. A top choice for flat commercial roofs that can last up to 25 years.
Modified Bitumen
Made from asphalt and reinforced with fiberglass or polyester. These roofs stand up to extreme weather and temperature changes. Though labor-intensive to install, they can last 20+ years with proper care.
Metal Roofing
Strong, sleek, and sustainable. Available in several finishes and rust-resistant coatings. Great for warehouses or industrial spaces. With care, a metal roof can protect your building for decades.
Which Roofing Material Is Right for You?
When choosing a new roof, it usually comes down to three things: Durability, Climate, and Cost.
Durability
EPDM and TPO systems typically last up to 25 years. Metal roofing can go even longer with the right upkeep, protecting your building for decades.
Climate
Michigan weather can be tough! Metal and Modified Bitumen hold up well in freezing winters, while TPO is excellent for UV protection in sunnier exposures.
Cost
On a tighter budget? Liquid coatings are a great way to extend life. For long-term value, consider investing in a durable Metal or Modified Bitumen system.
