We Offer The Best Commercial Roofing Systems
Flat, low-slope, shed, and steep-slope roofs are all examples of commercial roofing styles. Standing-seam roofing, single-membrane roofing, and torch-down roofing are all terms that refer to specific roof installation methods. Roofing is typically categorized solely by the material used to cover it. What follows are summaries of the most common commercial roofing materials in use today:
TPO Membranes: A Durable and Eco-Friendly Single-Ply Roofing Solution for Commercial Buildings
TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) membranes are single-ply roof membranes manufactured from ethylene propylene rubber. TPO is an elastomeric membrane that accepts roofing motion and negative thermal shock. They are resistant to ozone and algae and are eco-friendly and safe to install. TPO is a single-ply roofing membrane currently used on residential and commercial buildings.
The membrane is commonly installed using mechanical fasteners placed down the edge of the sheet or with adhesives.
PVC Membranes For Commercial Roofing: Durable, Efficient, and Sustainable
As a forward-thinking business owner, you know that investing in a high-quality roofing system is crucial for the success of your commercial property. That’s where PVC membranes come in – a revolutionary solution that offers unparalleled durability, efficiency, and sustainability.
What are PVC membranes?
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) membranes are a type of single-ply roofing system widely used in commercial roofing. PVC roofing comprises a thick, flexible, and durable layer reinforced with polyester or fiberglass to ensure strength and longevity.
Why Choose PVC Membranes For Commercial Roofing?
PVC membranes offer several advantages over other roofing materials, including:
- Durability: PVC roofs can last up to 30 years or more with proper maintenance, making them a long-lasting and cost-effective option for commercial properties.
- Energy efficiency: PVC membranes have high solar reflectivity and emissivity, which means they can help reduce energy costs by keeping the building cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
- Sustainability: PVC roofing is a sustainable choice because it is recyclable and can be repurposed into other products at the end of its life cycle.
Modified Bitumen: An Economical and Long-Lasting For Commercial Roofing
Modified bitumen provides an excellent alternative for commercial units such as multi-family apartments but works just as well on commercial units. It is a flexible and extremely economical roofing system that works on flat and low-slope roofs. When we look at modern roofing methods, it is among the oldest, meaning that it has been used for years and is time-tested. Thanks to new technological advances, it is also a safe and long-lasting roofing material for single and multi-family residences.
EPDM Roofing: A Durable and Affordable Solution For Both Commercial Buildings
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) Roofing Systems have been around for over fifty years; one of the first EPDM roofs installed in 1964 is still performing today! In the past, EPDM roof systems were mostly installed on commercial buildings and rarely on residential homes. Still, in recent years the cost of EPDM roofing has gone down, making it affordable to homeowners. With proper maintenance, expecting an EPDM (rubber) roof to last for forty or more years is reasonable. However, the long-term performance of your roof system will vary greatly depending on the training and skill of the installer who applies the material. Fully adhered systems are available in either a .045, .060, or .090 mil thickness. The thicker, the better.
Asphalt Shingles: A Popular and Affordable Roofing Material
Shingles have been around for more than 100 years and are the most common roof covering material used in the United States. About 75% of residential homes are covered in asphalt shingles in the U.S.
Composition Asphalt shingles are cheaper than most other alternative roofing materials and are readily available in various sizes, styles, and colors.
Professional Commercial Metal Roof Installer
Metal Roofs are popular for homeowners because they are strong, durable, and fire retardant. In addition to this, it’s also energy efficient because it reflects heat. Anyone considering this material should have a professional roofer install it for them. The process of installation can be very difficult, but worth it.
We Install All Types Of Commercial Roofing Systems
There are a wide variety of commercial roofing materials to choose from, so it’s crucial to work with a roofing contractor who is well-versed in the advantages and disadvantages of each.
Get in touch with us immediately to schedule a no-cost consultation if you need work done on your commercial roof.

Added in January, 2021 When we noticed some minor external shingle damage, we immediately called and within a day one of the project managers, Daniel was onsite.

Thanks to Daniel personally for his professional manner and excellent workmanship. Thanks to Dustin and the James Kate organization overall. We have also had outstanding work accomplished by Shannon and Joseph recently on a couple of small siding repair and painting projects. The jobs were both completed very professionally.

Not sure on the extent of the damage and my concern to have it checked out quickly, I went to James Kate's contact us page and filled in my info and message around 10pm. Within minutes!!!, Dustin Eatman replied back and we set up a time to come out the next morning. Early the next morning, he observed the damage, spoke with my wife while he was there, and also gave me a call to discuss what needed to be done. The following morning, he came out and fixed it. His work and customer service are excellent. He was extremely nice and professional. As far as I know, you can't be more competitive with quality of service and price. I will also mention that I put messages out to several other local roofers via their contact us pages (since we live in a web based world) and Dustin was the only one to ever reply back, and to think about how quickly he responded was amazing. I own a small business and I understand the importance of quality work and genuine customer service and I have to say I was MORE THAN IMPRESSED. I'm glad I didn't have to replace my entire roof, but when that time comes I know who to call. Seriously, anyone who needs roof work done, do not hesitate and call James Kate Roofing. Thanks Dustin. read lessLinda Carlisle7/15/2022 - GoogleThey are very professional all around.

Office staff are helpful, Bryan is on-the-ball, knowledgeable, and concerned about getting things done right. He has worked on our roof repairs before and goes a great job. Daniel arrived at 7 am and worked for 7 straight hours on our burning hot roof redoing two skylights. He was meticulous and professional. I trust them to do a good job. Don’t waste your time looking for a “cheaper” company - get the work done right by James Kate Roofing! read less

We have a clay tile roof and the prior 3 painters refused to even quote the job. I think they were set up for high volume and were afraid of working on the tile. Anyway I'm glad they declined as James Kate immediately said the roof was not problem for them. Very prompt in providing an onsite visit, asking me what I wanted in detail. The quote was itemized and they completed all work and then some. I can tell they are proud of the work they do and their crew was fantastic. Sandra and Joseph prepared the quote and when it came time for color selections Shannon brought her design expertise and after seeing options we all agreed on a new stucco color. Slightly darker and it looks great next to the stone and Chicago brick areas of the house. I am an architect but having Shannon's designer eye really helped. Work started as initially scheduled at the time of the quote. The crew was great and cleaned up each day after non-stop activity. No breaks until the job was finished. I mean these guys work hard. Thanks guys..! 4 full days and a day of cleaning up Joseph's small punch list. My wife and I completely endorse this company. You can't go wrong. read lessNancy Markham12/15/2016 - GoogleVery pleased with this company.

They showed up early the next morning, inspected my entire property, and tarped the skylight to prevent any leaks from storms that were expected the next couple days. All of the legwork that James Kate Construction did on the front end--pictures, damage spot identification, explain the process in simple terms--all made this an easy process for me thru the claim process. The roof installation group arrived at 6:30am and were done with my ENTIRE roof and skylight replacement by 1:30pm! Amazing... My property was spotless when they left and the workers were polite and professional. Gutter replacement took 2 5 hours a couple days later. The group was just like the roof group, super nice and even asked for my input on where I wanted the downspouts placed. Subtle touch, but this is huge in terms of customer service! Hopefully you never need your roof replaced, but I would highly recommend James Kate Construction if you are ever in my situation. Nothing compares to an expert keeping it simple and easy when bad things like this happen. read less

Educated us on what we needed to do to get our roof replaced. Was available basically 24/7 for whatever crazy questions we had and worked with us on the financial side as well. When they came out to replace the roof, we got texts days in advance when they'd be coming instead of just showing up like some contractors do. The crews that came out were very professional and polite. They made sure nothing would get broke, moved what needed to be moved, covered the rose bushes etc. Nothing got damaged except the old roof 🙂 If you need a roof replaced this is the construction company to use. Again, an absolutely wonderful experience due to everyone being professional, courteous and polite through out the whole process.
