Commercial Roofing in Palm Beach County: TPO, EPDM, Metal & More | Ranger Roofing

The systems are different, the stakes are higher, and the business interruption risks of getting it wrong are substantial.

Commercial Roofing Systems Available in Palm Beach County

Ranger Roofing Corporation is certified to install and maintain the commercial roofing systems most appropriate for South Florida's climate and building types:

TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) Roofing

TPO has become the dominant commercial roofing system in South Florida and is the most commonly specified single-ply membrane in new commercial construction. TPO membranes offer exceptional UV resistance due to their white or light-colored surface, which reflects solar radiation and reduces cooling costs — a significant benefit in Palm Beach County's hot climate. TPO is also resistant to ozone, algae, and puncture, making it well-suited for flat and low-slope commercial roofs. Ranger Roofing installs TPO systems from leading manufacturers including Firestone, GAF, and Carlisle.

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) Roofing

EPDM is a highly durable synthetic rubber roofing membrane that has been used in commercial applications for decades. It offers excellent weathering resistance, flexibility across a wide temperature range, and a proven long-term performance record. EPDM systems can be installed fully adhered, mechanically fastened, or ballasted, providing installation flexibility for various commercial applications. In Palm Beach County, EPDM is often specified for industrial and warehouse applications where durability and ease of maintenance are priorities.

Modified Bitumen Roofing

Modified bitumen is an asphalt-based roofing system reinforced with polymer modifiers (APP or SBS) that improve its performance in extreme heat and UV conditions. It is widely used for commercial and multi-family residential buildings in Palm Beach County, particularly for low-slope roofs on buildings where a more traditional asphalt-based system is preferred. Modified bitumen systems offer excellent waterproofing performance and can be installed in multiple layers for added protection.

Built-Up Roofing (BUR)

Built-up roofing (BUR), often called 'tar and gravel' roofing, is one of the oldest and most proven commercial roofing systems. It consists of alternating layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics, topped with aggregate surfacing. BUR provides excellent waterproofing through its multi-layer construction and is particularly resistant to foot traffic and physical abuse. It remains a popular choice for large flat commercial roofs in Palm Beach County, particularly on older buildings being re-roofed.

Commercial Metal Roofing

Standing seam metal roofing is increasingly popular for commercial buildings seeking maximum longevity, energy efficiency, and storm resistance. Commercial metal roofing systems can achieve wind ratings exceeding 170 mph, making them an excellent choice for Palm Beach County's hurricane-prone environment. Metal roofing's 40-70 year lifespan also makes it one of the most cost-effective long-term investments for commercial property owners.
