Warehouses

A warehouse roof is a large footprint over stock, racking and people who need to keep working, and on most of them that roof is metal. CES Roofing works only on commercial buildings across Florida, and industrial and warehouse properties are a big part of that work. We tell you in writing whether the roof can be restored or has to come off, and we plan the work around the operation underneath it.

What warehouses need

  • A straight answer on a metal roof

    The complimentary assessment is drone-assisted, and if we suspect trapped moisture we scan the roof with thermal imaging. You get a recommendation in writing: restore, repair or replace. Metal is the easiest roof there is to restore, so an aging panel roof that is still structurally sound is usually a candidate for restoration rather than replacement.

  • Restoration instead of a reskin

    Reskinning a metal roof is the expensive option. If the panels are sound, a silicone coating or a foam and coating system goes over them, carries the same manufacturer warranty as a replacement and costs roughly one-third as much. When a metal roof does have to be replaced, we replace it with metal.

  • Work around a working building

    Restoration goes on over the existing roof with no tear-off, so the operation underneath keeps running while the work happens above it. Every person on your roof is covered by our standalone workers' compensation policy, so an injury on site doesn't become your liability.

  • Hurricane season, in writing

    On qualifying SPF systems, CES is one of only two companies in Florida that can offer a manufacturer-certified Category 5 Hurricane Warranty. It stays with the building if it sells.

Systems that fit

Most warehouse roofs are metal, and a silicone coating over sound panels is the usual answer. A reflective coating also reduces heat absorption and lowers energy bills, which matters under a roof this size. SPF adds insulation and impact resistance and is the system the Category 5 warranty applies to. A metal roof that is past saving is replaced with metal, and flat sections take TPO or modified bitumen.
