Commercial and Industrial Roofing in the Wilmington Area
Flat Roofing Expertise in Wilmington
From industrial parks along the Christina River to distribution centers near I-495 and Market Street, we serve a wide variety of facilities throughout Wilmington. Our technicians bring years of hands-on experience diagnosing roof leaks, restoring aging surfaces, and installing modern systems that perform well in both summer heat and winter snow.
Commercial and Industrial Applications
We work on nearly every type of commercial and industrial property, including factories, medical facilities, retail centers, and government buildings. Whether you manage a single structure or a multi-site portfolio, Flat Roof Solutions delivers consistent, high-quality work that keeps your operations dry and secure.
Warranty and Quality Assurance
Each new installation comes with a Manufacturer’s No Dollar Limit (NDL) warranty that covers both materials and labor for the full warranty term. Our crew follows strict installation guidelines, so you receive a system that performs as expected for decades.
Flat Roof Installation Services
We install advanced flat roofing systems built for long-term performance and energy efficiency. Our team has extensive experience with thermoplastic membranes, asphalt systems, and metal panels.
Single-Ply Membrane Systems
We install EPDM, TPO, and PVC roofing systems throughout Wilmington. These membranes are lightweight, durable, and suitable for the humid conditions common to the Mid-Atlantic. TPO and PVC are also reflective, which helps lower indoor temperatures during Delaware’s hot summers.
Asphalt and Metal Flat Roofs
For clients who prefer traditional materials, we install built-up roofing and modified bitumen systems that offer rugged reliability. We also install steel and aluminum roofs designed to improve energy savings while resisting corrosion from salt and moisture in the coastal air.
Flat Roof Repair in Wilmington
Even a small leak can quickly damage insulation or equipment inside your building. Flat Roof Solutions handles both urgent repairs and planned maintenance for all types of flat roofing.
Common Repairs
We repair leaks, cracked seams, punctures, flashing separation, and damage from foot traffic or weather. Our technicians work with EPDM, TPO, PVC, metal, asphalt, and foam surfaces, using methods that provide permanent fixes rather than temporary patches.
Emergency Service and Preventive Care
We provide emergency service when storms, wind, or heavy rain cause damage. Beyond urgent repairs, we offer scheduled maintenance visits to help extend the life of your roof and reduce future costs.
Flat Roof Restoration Services
A full roof replacement is not always necessary. Our restoration services use high-performance coatings that return waterproofing and UV protection to aging roofs while improving energy efficiency.
Roof Coating Systems
We use silicone, acrylic, and urethane coatings that adhere tightly to asphalt, metal, and single-ply surfaces. Once applied, these coatings create a reflective, seamless layer that resists UV damage, standing water, and cracking.
Long-Term Value
Restoration projects can be completed with minimal disruption to your business and typically qualify as fully tax-deductible maintenance under Section 179. They also come with manufacturer warranties of 10, 15, or 20 years that can be renewed after inspection.

Flat Roof Inspections
Routine inspections are the best way to avoid unexpected repairs. The National Association of Roof Contractors advises inspecting commercial roofs twice a year and after major storms.
What We Look For
During an inspection, we check for seam failure, standing water, clogged drains, flashing damage, and surface deterioration. Inside the building, we look for water stains, cracks, or signs of mold. Our written report outlines all findings along with recommendations for maintenance or repair.
Flat Roof Replacement and Recovery
When a roof reaches the end of its service life or repeated patching becomes uneconomical, replacement or recovery may be the best path forward.
Complete Replacement
We remove the existing roof, replace damaged insulation, and install a modern, energy-efficient system using products from industry-leading manufacturers. This option provides a completely new starting point with updated warranties and insulation values.
Roof Recovery
If the existing deck and insulation remain in good shape, we can recover the surface by applying a new layer of material over the old one. This approach is faster, more affordable, and avoids unnecessary waste.

Flat Roofing and Commercial Roofing FAQs
What makes flat roofing ideal for Wilmington’s climate?
Wilmington experiences a mix of heavy rain, snow, and summer heat, and flat roofing systems can be engineered to handle all three. Materials like TPO and PVC reflect sunlight to keep buildings cooler, while coatings and proper drainage prevent leaks from melting snow or tropical downpours.
How do I know if my roof needs replacement or restoration?
If your roof shows visible cracks, frequent leaks, or ponding that returns after repair, it might be time to consider replacement. Restoration is often an option when the insulation and structure are intact but the surface needs a new waterproof layer. Our inspection will determine which choice fits your building best.
What is the cost difference between replacement and recovery?
Recovery can cost 30 to 40 percent less than a full replacement because it uses the existing structure and insulation. The exact savings depend on the roof’s size, material type, and accessibility. During our evaluation, we provide both options with clear pricing.
Are your coatings suitable for older metal roofs?
Yes. Many Wilmington warehouses and industrial buildings still have aging metal roofs. We use advanced coatings that stop corrosion, seal fasteners, and create a reflective surface that helps lower cooling costs while extending the life of the metal panels.
How long does a restoration project take?
Most restoration jobs are completed in one to two weeks depending on roof size and weather. Because the process does not require a full tear-off, your business can usually continue operations with little disruption.
What type of warranty is included?
We offer manufacturer-backed product and labor warranties for 10, 15, and 20 years. These warranties can be renewed after inspection, allowing your roof to remain protected for the long term.
Can you repair leaks during winter?
Yes, though some materials require above-freezing temperatures to cure properly. In colder months, we use specialized products and temporary sealants to contain leaks until permanent repairs can be made under better conditions.
Do you work with government or public buildings?
Yes. Flat Roof Solutions is licensed, insured, and SAM-registered to work on municipal, state, and federal properties throughout Delaware and neighboring states.
What maintenance does a flat roof need each year?
Routine cleaning of gutters and drains, checking flashing, and removing debris are key steps. We recommend professional inspections twice a year to track wear and maintain warranty coverage.
