Your commercial property is an investment, and a secure, reliable roof is vital for protecting your tenants. Whether you manage a warehouse, retail space, or office building, understanding commercial roofing systems and their maintenance is crucial. This comprehensive guide explores the different types of commercial roofs, their benefits, and essential tips for keeping your roof in top shape. By learning the signs of potential problems and the importance of proactive maintenance, you can ensure your commercial roof safeguards your investment and keeps your business running smoothly for years to come.
What is Commercial Roofing?
At Dynamite Roofing we primarily focus on small commercial roofing applications. These typically are multi-family commercial properties, multi-tenant retail (strip malls), offices, restaurants and other retail properties.
The roofing systems we most commonly work with are flat roofs, low-slope metal roofs and standard asphalt shingles.
Signs Your Commercial Roof Needs Attention:
Obvious signs the roof on your commercial property needs attention are leaks and standing water. We typically get called after storms to inspect a commercial roof when a tenant notices leaking. We perform regular maintenance on roofs all around Salt Lake City and Provo and will note clogged drains or gutters, deteriorating roof materials (shingles or roof membrane) and presence of mold. In those cases, some type of repair is recommended.
Commercial Roof Maintenance:
In a commercial property, regular inspections and preventative maintenance should be included in your annual expense estimates. As noted above, pooling water, clogged drains or gutters and deteriorating roofing surfaces are all situations where preventative maintenance can help extend the life of your commercial roof.
Commercial Roof Repair:
The most common roof repairs for commercial roof systems include membrane repair, drainage system maintenance, addressing substrate issues, and leak repair.
For multi-family residential roofs, repairs are more similar to residential roof repair and include shingle replacement, flashing repair, soffit and fascia repair and sealant application.
We’re fully aware of reasonable repair timeline expectations of commercial tenants and have crews ready to inspect, repair or replace your commercial roof today!

I had wind damage on my garage roof and Jeff was incredibly helpful in mitigation before the insurance company (is able to) take action in replacement. He was super fast in responding and a great communicator! Really puts you at ease in a stressful situation. Can't say enough good things about this company.

Dynamite Roofing offers both TPO and PVC roofing solutions to our Utah clientele.
TPO and PVC roofing systems share key benefits such as
- durability
- energy efficiency
- ease of installation
Both offer resistance to
- UV radiation
- chemicals
- and weathering
making them suitable for various climates and building types. However, they differ in composition, flexibility, and environmental impact, with PVC being more rigid and TPO being more flexible and environmentally friendly.
GAF offers high-quality membranes engineered for superior performance, durability, and weather resistance. Their products undergo rigorous testing to ensure compliance with industry standards and deliver long-lasting protection. GAF's expertise and commitment to innovation also provide peace of mind, and they're backed by comprehensive warranties and support services.
