Commercial roofing in Katy TX covers a lot of ground, from strip centers along Mason Rd and FM 1463 to office buildings in the Energy Corridor and metal warehouses west toward Brookshire. These buildings face the same heat, humidity, hail and tropical storms as homes, but their roofs are built differently and fail differently. Flat and low-slope roofs hold water, seams open up under UV and thermal movement, and rooftop equipment creates dozens of penetrations to seal. We help owners and property managers stay ahead of all of it.
Commercial Roof Types We Service
TPO single-ply membranes
White TPO is common on newer retail and office buildings in the Katy area because it reflects heat. Its weak points are seams, flashing at curbs and walls, and punctures from foot traffic around HVAC units.
Modified bitumen
Multi-layer modified bitumen is durable and common on older low-slope buildings. Over time it can blister, crack and lose its surface granules, especially in our sun.
Metal roofs
Many warehouses, shops and light industrial buildings use metal panels. Exposed fasteners loosen, washers dry out, and seams and skylights become leak points. See our metal roofing page for more on metal systems.
Commercial Roofing Katy TX Services
- Inspections and condition reports. Photo-documented reports showing problem areas, estimated remaining life and recommended priorities, useful for budgeting and for buyers or lenders.
- Leak repairs. Seam repairs, flashing repairs, pitch pocket and curb repairs, and drain and scupper fixes.
- Preventive maintenance. Clearing drains and gutters, resealing penetrations and catching small problems before they become interior damage.
- Coatings and restoration. Reflective coatings can extend the life of a sound roof and lower surface temperatures.
- Re-roofs and recovers. Full tear-off or, where code and conditions allow, a recover over the existing roof.
- Storm damage response. Documentation and temporary protection after hail or wind events.
Why Katy Commercial Roofs Fail
Most commercial leaks we see trace back to a few causes:
- Clogged drains and scuppers. Leaves, debris and nesting birds block drainage and cause ponding.
- Rooftop equipment. HVAC curbs, conduit and service traffic create punctures and stressed flashing.
- Heat cycling. Daily expansion and contraction opens seams and pulls flashing away from parapet walls.
- Storm damage. Hail fractures membranes and wind lifts edges, as many buildings saw after the 2024 derecho and Hurricane Beryl.
- Deferred maintenance. Small problems left for a season or two become wet insulation and decking damage.

Planning and Budgeting a Commercial Roof Project
Commercial roof costs vary widely with roof size, system type, insulation requirements, access and how much wet material needs replacing. Because of that, we do not publish per-square-foot ranges for commercial work. Instead, we start with an inspection and give you a written scope with clear options, such as repair now, coat within a year or plan a replacement in your next budget cycle.
For buildings with multiple tenants, we coordinate access, notify occupants about noisy days and plan staging so parking and entrances stay open. Work can often be scheduled early in the day or in phases to limit disruption.
A condition report also helps with long-term planning. Knowing that a roof has an estimated five to eight years left lets you spread maintenance and reserves across budgets instead of facing an emergency replacement after a storm. Many owners find that a modest annual maintenance plan pays for itself by catching seam and flashing failures early.
Storm Damage and Commercial Insurance
Commercial property policies differ from homeowners policies and often have their own deductibles and reporting rules. After a storm, we document roof damage with photos and can meet your carrier's adjuster on site. We do not act as public adjusters or negotiate claims, and we never waive deductibles, which is prohibited under Texas law. Read more on our storm and hail damage page.
