Roofing for warehouses and distribution
Huge low-slope decks, 24-hour dock schedules and inventory that cannot get wet.
A leak over racked inventory is a claim; a crane in the truck court is a shutdown.
How we plan the work
Distribution centers along the Port of Houston and the Beltway 8 corridor run around the clock. Our replacement plans map crane placement and material staging around dock doors and yard traffic, and we coordinate with your logistics manager on a weekly look-ahead.
For tilt-wall buildings from 100,000 to 600,000 sq ft, we typically recommend 60 mil TPO with tapered insulation to eliminate ponding, reinforced walkway pads to rooftop units and ES-1 edge metal for hurricane exposure.

TPO membrane
Heat-welded white single-ply that reflects Houston sun and keeps big warehouse decks cooler. 20 to 30 years.
TPO details - SYS-05
Metal retrofit
Standing seam panels and recover framing over leaking R-panel or low-slope roofs. 40 to 60 years.
Metal details - SYS-06
Roof coatings
Silicone and acrylic restoration that seals a sound roof and can defer replacement. 10 to 20 years per application.
