Commercial Roofing in Austin, TX

Commercial roofs fail differently from residential ones, and they fail on a schedule that has tenants in the building. Our crews install and replace TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen and standing seam metal across Austin, working after hours when the business needs it. Request a free inspection or talk to us.

The Systems We Install

  • Modified bitumen: SBS in two plies with cap sheet, mopped hot or torch applied, with manufacturer cover of up to twenty years on a qualifying system
  • TPO and EPDM single ply: TPO in 45, 60 and 80 mil, EPDM in 45, 60 and 90 mil, manufacturer warranty of twenty to thirty years
  • R panel and standing seam metal: 24 and 26 gauge Galvalume substrate, Kynar 500 paint finish over it, substrate warranty of twenty to thirty years and paint cover of twenty to forty
  • Details and penetrations: RTU curbs, drains, scuppers and pitch pans, the details that sink most flat roofs

Our workmanship warranty runs five years on labor and transfers to the next building owner.

Budget Ranges for 2026

Modified bitumen runs $7.50 to $12.50 per square foot. EPDM runs $6 to $11 and TPO runs $8 to $14. Standing seam metal runs $10 to $16. A recover system saves the tear off and the disposal, landing around 75 to 85 percent of a full replacement, which is the right answer when the deck and insulation are dry.

Our quotes come in within 8 percent of final cost. Property managers care about that more than the headline price, because a quote that moves halfway through the job is the one that breaks a budget.

Working Around a Working Building

  • Walk through and condition report delivered the same business day
  • Scope and budget options, usually repair, recover and replace side by side
  • After hours scheduling with tenant communication handled before the first truck arrives
  • Daily progress reports throughout the installation
  • Warranty registration and an as built file at completion

Storm response runs within 24 hours across our service radius. Maintenance contracts run annually or twice yearly, and on a commercial roof they usually cost less than the leak they prevent.

Repair, Recover or Replace

The first question on any commercial roof is which of the three it needs, and the honest answer is often the cheapest one. A membrane with isolated punctures and dry insulation underneath is a repair. A sound deck under a failed surface is a recover. Saturated insulation or a deck losing fasteners is a replacement, and nothing short of that holds.

Core samples settle it. Cutting a small test section tells you whether the insulation is wet, which no amount of looking at the surface will. It is a cheap test, and it is the step most quotes skip.

In House Crews on Every Job

The crews on your building are our own employees, never subcontractors, trained in house and accountable for the work. That matters more on a commercial project than a residential one, because the exposure is larger and the coordination is harder.

Frequently asked questions

What commercial roofing systems do you install in Austin?
Modified bitumen (SBS two-ply with cap sheet, hot-mopped or torch-applied), TPO and EPDM single-ply membrane (60, 80, and 90-mil thicknesses), R-panel and standing seam metal (26 and 24-gauge), and built-up gravel systems for owners who want to maintain a legacy roof. We coordinate with the building's structural engineer on dead load where the system change requires it.
How much does commercial roofing cost per square foot in Austin in 2026?
Modified bitumen runs $8 to $14 per square foot installed in the Austin metro. TPO and EPDM single-ply membrane runs $11 to $18 per square foot depending on attachment method and thickness. R-panel and standing seam metal runs $14 to $22 per square foot. Recover-over an existing system runs roughly 60 to 75 percent of the cost of a full tear-off and replace where the original deck and structure allow.
Do you work with commercial property managers and insurance carriers?
Yes. The majority of our commercial work comes through property managers and ownership groups across the Austin metro. We carry general liability and workers compensation, are bonded, and provide certificates of insurance to the property manager before any work begins. We also handle commercial insurance claims for hail and wind events directly with the carrier.
Can you replace a commercial roof without interrupting tenants?
Most of the time, yes. We run off-hours and phased installs on tenanted property. Modified bitumen and single-ply membrane work can be scheduled overnight or on weekends where the building owner authorizes the labor premium. Metal panel installs typically run during business hours because the noise envelope is tighter, but we phase the work by section so the tenant footprint stays open.
What warranty do you write on commercial work?
Manufacturer warranties run 20 years on modified bitumen, 20 to 30 years on TPO and EPDM depending on thickness, and 40 to 50 years on metal panel systems. Our written workmanship warranty runs five years on labor and is transferable to the next building owner. Both are registered in the owner's name and included in the as-built file.
Do you handle ongoing commercial roof maintenance?
Yes. We offer annual and biannual maintenance contracts with photographed inspection reports filed for the building binder. Coverage includes inspection, debris clearance, seam and flashing check, drain and scupper clearance, RTU curb inspection, and a written report with recommendations. Maintenance contracts often extend the usable life of a commercial system by 5 to 10 years.

Why this matters

We're a roofing company with a sales department, not a sales company masquerading as a roofing company that just farms out the work to the cheapest subcontractors.

We focus on doing the job the right way · materials, fabrication, and workmanship. We prioritize high-end, high-quality products over Big Box Store options, and we handle custom fabrications by hand and on site so the finished system fits properly and lasts for years. Our owners are roofers, and our crews are personally trained, certified in what they install, and held accountable for the quality of their work.

The tell that matters: we are the roofer most used by other roofing companies in Central Texas to actually fulfill their clients' needs. When the company on the truck can't deliver, ours is the crew they call to get the job done right.
