Warranty Guidance
MANUFACTURER WARRANTIES, EXPLAINED
Commercial roofing warranties aren't one-size-fits-all. Here's how coverage varies between manufacturers — and how we help you choose the right system for your building.
Built For This Climate
WHAT EAST TEXAS WEATHER DOES TO A COMMERCIAL ROOF
Heat, rainfall, wind, freeze-thaw cycling and hail all act on the same roof in a single year. Which system suits your building depends on the roof assembly, its drainage, its exposure and the manufacturer's requirements — not on a single spec sheet number, so we look at those conditions before recommending anything.
Long, hot summers
Sustained UV and heat work on exposed membranes; reflective TPO/PVC surfaces run cooler than dark granulated ones.
Heavy annual rainfall
Standing water is a leading contributor to commercial roof failure — slope and drainage design matter.
Straight-line wind and tornado risk
Uplift design and edge metal detailing follow the tested assembly and code wind loads for your site.
Freeze-thaw cycling
Winter nights below freezing flex flashings and open unsealed seams.
Severe hail season
Spring hail can bruise granulated surfaces and dent metal panels.
Commercial Roof Systems Compared
TPO vs PVC vs METAL vs MOD-BIT vs BUR
Every commercial roofing system solves a different problem. Here's the breakdown — typical service life, installed cost per square foot in East Texas, where each system fits, and the trade-offs to weigh.
TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin)
Typical Service Life
20–30 years
Installed Cost
$5.50–$9.00 / sq ft
Best For
Warehouses, retail centers, offices, medical
- Reflective white surface reduces rooftop heat gain in East Texas summers
- Heat-welded seams rather than adhered laps
- Class A fire rating available by assembly
- Seam welding tolerances are tight — installer skill matters
- Lower puncture resistance than multi-ply systems on foot-traffic roofs
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
Typical Service Life
20–30 years
Installed Cost
$7.00–$12.00 / sq ft
Best For
Restaurants, food processing, chemical exposure
- Formulated to resist grease, oils and animal fats
- Heat-welded seams
- Strong fire performance in listed assemblies
- Higher upfront cost than TPO
- Can shrink over decades, stressing flashings
Modified Bitumen (Mod-Bit / SBS)
Typical Service Life
15–25 years
Installed Cost
$4.50–$8.50 / sq ft
Best For
Rooftops with heavy foot traffic, HVAC-dense buildings
- Multi-ply redundancy — a surface puncture is less likely to reach the deck
- Drainage and ponding-water limits depend on the selected product and assembly
- Torch, cold-adhesive, or self-adhered options
- Darker granulated surface absorbs heat
- Torch-applied installs require strict fire-watch protocols
Standing Seam Metal
Typical Service Life
40–60 years
Installed Cost
$10.00–$18.00 / sq ft
Best For
Manufacturing, agriculture, churches, high-visibility retail
- Long service life with appropriate detailing and maintenance
- Concealed fasteners — no exposed screw gaskets to fail
- Wind performance depends on the tested assembly, clip spacing and edge detailing
- Highest material cost
- Structural deck must be evaluated for load
Built-Up Roof (BUR)
Typical Service Life
15–30 years
Installed Cost
$5.00–$8.00 / sq ft
Best For
Legacy commercial buildings, government facilities
- Long-established multi-ply waterproofing
- Gravel surfacing shields the plies from UV
- Heavy — deck load must be verified
- Installation is odor-intensive; tenant coordination matters
Silicone / Acrylic Roof Coatings
Typical Service Life
10–15 years per coat
Installed Cost
$1.50–$4.00 / sq ft
Best For
Aging roofs still structurally sound, budget-driven recovers
- Restores a serviceable roof for less than replacement
- Some manufacturers offer renewable coating warranties on eligible systems
- May reduce tear-off waste where the existing assembly is suitable
- Only appropriate when the underlying membrane is dry and intact
- Requires a moisture survey first
Service-life and cost ranges are planning figures, not quotes. Every system carries its own manufacturer requirements for slope, drainage, attachment and maintenance, and those requirements — plus what a survey finds on your roof — decide what is actually suitable.
Right System, Right Building
WHAT WE INSTALL BY BUILDING TYPE
Building use tells us how a roof will be walked, loaded and exposed. Here's the starting point we work from by property type across East Texas, before drainage, deck type and manufacturer requirements narrow it further.
Warehouse & Distribution
TPO or standing-seam metal — large footprints benefit from reflectivity and long-life metal.
Retail Strip Centers
TPO with tapered ISO insulation where drainage at parapets is the recurring problem.
Restaurants & QSR
PVC is commonly specified around exhaust hoods, because grease exposure attacks some membranes and is often excluded from warranty coverage.
Multi-Family & Apartments
Architectural shingle or standing seam for pitched roofs; TPO for flat clubhouse and breezeway sections.
Medical & Office
TPO or PVC — tenant comfort favors quiet installs and no torch work.
Churches & Institutional
Standing-seam metal or architectural shingle for visible slopes; TPO on hidden flat sections.
Manufacturing & Industrial
Standing-seam metal or modified bitumen — puncture resistance matters where equipment is staged.
