Most Trusted Commercial Roofer
Having been one of the most trusted commercial roofers in the Denver Area for the past 25 years, we understand the obstacles commercial property owners face.
Budget constraints, difficult access, shared walls, procurement offices, and unreasonable tenants.
One thing you’ll notice when researching roofers is the distinction between residential and commercial roofers. Is there really a difference? Roofs are roofs, right?
Wrong.
We’ll tell you why choosing a Denver Area roofer who specializes in commercial roofing means everything to your project.
Why The Best Residential Roofer Might
Make A Poor Commercial One
At Elite Construction & Roofing, we understand the differences between the two specialties. We handle both residential and commercial roofs, and know better than most how greatly the two differ.
Commercial roofing isn’t just residential, but bigger. It’s a whole new animal, with commercial-specific factors.
Materials
Residential roofing projects are usually asphalt shingle roofing, metal roofing, or specialty roofing such as slate or tile.
Our commercial roofing projects, however, usually involve materials such as TPO, modified bitumen, EPDM, and more. These materials are not only applied very differently from traditional home roof materials, but are applied over a much larger area.
Timelines
Most residential roofing projects can be completed in a matter of days. However, commercial roofing has a longer timeline and needs more manpower, often resulting in a week or more.
Downtime & Disruption
When we’re replacing an asphalt shingle roof on a Denver Area home, it’s relatively simple. We notify the homeowner of the timeline and warn them about the noise. This way, they can make arrangements to park their cars on the street and stay out of the house while the work is going on.
Commercial roofing, however, requires a lot more. We have to coordinate with property owners, managers, HOA’s, permit officials, engineers, tenants etc. That in addition to thoroughly reviewing safety protocols and process planning, so the property owner doesn’t lose revenue during construction.
If the property is still in use during construction, we establish entrances/exits, as well as parking, to mitigate disruption as much as possible.
