Commercial Roofing Systems We Install
Altex Roofing Services specializes in the installation of all major commercial roofing systems. Our experienced team has the expertise to install any type of commercial roof, ensuring proper installation techniques and manufacturer specifications are followed precisely.
TPO Roofing Systems
Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) roofing is one of the fastest-growing commercial roofing systems in the industry, and for good reason. TPO offers exceptional durability, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The bright white surface reflects UV rays, reducing cooling costs by up to 30% during hot Ohio summers.
Our TPO installations feature heat-welded seams that create a watertight bond stronger than the membrane itself. This superior seam strength makes TPO highly resistant to leaks and weather damage. We install TPO systems from leading manufacturers including GAF, Firestone, and Carlisle, with warranties ranging from 15 to 30 years.
Benefits of TPO Roofing:
- Excellent energy efficiency with reflective white surface
- Superior resistance to tears, punctures, and impact damage
- Heat-welded seams stronger than the membrane itself
- Long lifespan of 20-30 years with proper maintenance
- Cost-effective installation and lifecycle costs
EPDM Rubber Roofing
Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber roofing has been a trusted choice for commercial properties for over 50 years. This proven roofing system offers exceptional durability and weather resistance at an affordable price point. EPDM's flexibility allows it to expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking or splitting.
We install both black and white EPDM membranes in various thicknesses (45 mil, 60 mil, and 90 mil) depending on your building's requirements and budget. EPDM is particularly well-suited for flat or low-slope commercial roofs and can be installed using fully adhered, mechanically attached, or ballasted methods.
Benefits of EPDM Roofing:
- Proven track record with over 50 years of successful installations
- Outstanding weather resistance in harsh Ohio climate
- Low maintenance requirements throughout its lifespan
- Cost-effective installation with excellent value
- Easy to repair if damage occurs

Metal Roofing Systems
Metal roofing systems offer unmatched longevity and durability for commercial properties. Available in standing seam, corrugated, and ribbed panel profiles, metal roofs can last 40-70 years with minimal maintenance. We install metal roofing systems in various materials including steel, aluminum, copper, and zinc.
Metal roofs are ideal for properties seeking superior weather resistance, fire protection, and energy efficiency. Modern metal roofing systems feature advanced coatings that reflect solar heat, reducing cooling costs by up to 40%. The wide range of colors and finishes available ensures your metal roof complements your building's aesthetic.
Benefits of Metal Roofing:
- Exceptional lifespan of 40-70 years
- Superior wind resistance up to 140 mph
- Fire resistant with Class A fire rating
- Energy efficient with reflective coatings
- Low maintenance requirements
- 100% recyclable at end of life
Built-Up Roofing (BUR) Systems
Built-up roofing (BUR) systems have protected commercial buildings for over 100 years. These multi-layered roofing systems consist of alternating layers of roofing felt and bitumen, topped with an aggregate or smooth cap sheet. The multiple layers create a redundant waterproofing system that's extremely durable and long-lasting.
BUR systems are particularly well-suited for flat roofs and buildings with heavy foot traffic. The gravel or stone aggregate surface provides excellent protection against UV rays and physical damage. We install both hot-mopped asphalt and cold-applied adhesive BUR systems depending on your building's requirements and local regulations.
Benefits of Built-Up Roofing:
- Proven 100+ year track record of reliability
- Multiple layers provide redundant waterproofing
- Excellent for roofs with heavy foot traffic
- Superior UV and weather protection
- Cost-effective for larger commercial buildings
