Commercial Roof Installation Contractor in Queens, NY
Commercial roof installation contractor work is what Hearth Roofing does when a Queens building needs a new flat or low-slope roof. My crew tears off the old system, repairs the deck and installs TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen or built-up roofing, then handles final inspection and cleanup.
- TPO
- EPDM
- PVC
- Modified bitumen

Matching the membrane to your building
I pick the system that fits the building, not the easiest sale. When it suits the roof better, I'll also price spray foam as the commercial alternative.

| System | Installed | Best at | Suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPO | Heat-welded seams | Energy-efficient reflectivity | Warehouses, industrial |
| EPDM | Fully adhered or mechanically fastened | Long track record | Offices, retail stores |
| PVC | Heat-welded seams | Grease and chemicals | Restaurants |
| Modified bitumen | Torch or cold-applied | Foot traffic | Apartments, mixed-use |
| Built-up | Layered plies and asphalt | Heavy use | Schools, churches |
Flat roofs on houses and smaller buildings are a separate, lighter job.
Six steps on every commercial install
Same order on every building, from bare deck to the photos your building manager gets at the end.
-
Tear-off
Everything comes off down to the roof deck.
-
Deck repair
Repairs wherever wood is soft or steel has rusted.
-
Tapered insulation
Pitched so water runs to the roof drains.
-
Membrane installation
Adhered or fastened, seams heat-welded or sealed.
-
Our specialty
Flashing
At parapet walls, rooftop units, drains and penetrations, the step I specialize in.
When the roof still has years left, commercial flashing repair on the existing roof may be enough.
-
Final inspection & cleanup
With photos sent to your building manager.
Your tenants stay open while we work
Before tear-off, your building manager and I agree on a project schedule. We work section by section, and every section opened is watertight before the crew leaves at night.
Rooftop units get disconnected and reset with your HVAC contractor. Debris comes down away from entrances and storefronts, so tenants barely notice us.
- Schedule agreed first
- Section by section
- HVAC units reset
- Entrances kept clear

- One section opened
- Watertight before the crew leaves
Before you sign a commercial roofing contract
Tear-off, deck repair, tapered insulation, membrane, flashing, then inspection and cleanup. Each is detailed in the sequence above.
Repeated leaks, ponding water, blistered or split membrane, wet insulation and failed parapet flashing all point to replacement. I still trace the leak first. Sometimes one bad detail is the whole problem.
Mechanically fastened single-ply, usually TPO. It screws to the steel deck with no torch or hot asphalt, so big sections go down in a day.
It can. Roofs on nonresidential buildings may qualify for Section 179 expensing, and bonus depreciation rules keep changing. Confirm with your accountant.
Have me walk your roof first
Any commercial roof installation contractor should walk the roof before quoting it. I'll measure it, check the deck, drains and flashing, and give you a written scope with the system I'd recommend. Call (347) 308-6206 or send the form.
