Commercial Roofing in Ocala, FL
Low-slope and metal roof systems for shops, offices, churches, barns and warehouses across Marion County.
Commercial roofing in Marion County is mostly low-slope: the flat-looking roofs on strip retail, offices, churches, warehouses, auto shops and self-storage along SR-200, Pine Avenue, Silver Springs Boulevard and the industrial areas off US-27 and SW 44th. Low-slope roofs do not shed water the way a pitched roof does; they have to be waterproof, not just water-shedding, and that is a different set of materials and details.
We install and repair single-ply membrane (TPO), modified bitumen and metal roof systems for commercial and agricultural buildings across Ocala and Marion County, and we handle the flat-roof repair calls that most residential roofers turn down: ponding, seam failures, failed pitch pockets at rooftop equipment, and drains that have not been cleared since the building went up.
TPO single-ply
Heat-welded thermoplastic membrane
Modified bitumen
Asphalt-based rolled roofing, torch, cold-applied or self-adhered
Which one you want: TPO on a large, open, lightly-trafficked roof. Modified bitumen on a small, cut-up roof with a lot of equipment. On either, the drains, the flashings and the terminations are where the money is spent well or badly.

Permits, code and insurance on commercial roofs
Commercial re-roofs in Marion County are permitted through the same county or city building department as residential, but the code path is the Florida Building Code, Building and Existing Building volumes rather than the Residential volume. Wind uplift design for a low-slope roof is calculated for the building's height, exposure and edge zones, and the membrane or panel system's Florida Product Approval has to match. Roof edge metal (fascia, coping) is its own tested assembly under the current code.
Commercial property carriers are going through the same roof-age scrutiny as residential ones. A roof condition report and a maintenance record make renewals easier, and a documented recover or coating on a sound roof can extend the insurable life of the building without the cost of a full tear-off. We will tell you which of those your roof actually qualifies for.
