Every building type on a storage site
| Building | Typical roof | Our usual options |

| Climate-controlled building | Metal or TPO | Leak tracing, TPO, silicone or a metal re-roof |
| Office and manager's unit | Shingle or metal | Repair or replace to match the site |
| Boat and RV covers | Metal canopy | New covers and re-roofs; we build boat and RV covers |
Why storage roofs leak
- Worn screw washers on long rows; see exposed-fastener roofing
- End laps on panels that weren't one piece, rusting where water sits
- Low slopes where laps should have had sealant
- Hail damage to panels, light panels and gutters
Leaks in storage turn into tenant claims. We walk the roof, fly a drone for photos of areas that are hard to reach safely, and run drone thermal (infrared) scans that help show where water has gotten under the surface. Every inspection comes with a free digital photo report, so you see what we see.
Panels formed on site, one piece per run
We form standing seam and R-panel/PBR in 24 or 26 gauge on our own roll formers, cut to the measured length of each run. Metal lead time is typically 1 to 2 weeks. One-piece panels on a long drive-up row remove the end laps where older storage roofs usually rust first.
Working around tenants
- One row at a time, with drive aisles kept open
- Gate hours and tenant notices worked out with your manager
- Units under open roof areas protected and dried in the same day
- We send certificates of insurance before work starts; tell us your requirements with the bid request.
Permits and hail
The City of Denton adopted the 2021 International Building Code for permits applied for on or after June 1, 2022 (Ordinance 22-660, with local amendments). Its commercial roofing page says a permit is required for any roof work. The submittal is a commercial application, the manufacturer's specifications for the roof system and insulation, and a roof plan showing the length of all four sides of the building. Inspections are a roof-decking inspection where it applies and a roof final, scheduled through the city's eTRAKiT system. Contractors register with the city before pulling permits.

Source: NOAA NCEI Storm Events Database. NOAA lists 40 reports of hail 1.75 inches (golf-ball size) or larger within about 10 miles of Denton from 2016 through September 2026. A report shows where hail was seen, not whether a given roof was damaged.
We document the damage with photos and measurements and can be on the roof when your adjuster inspects. We don't adjust or negotiate claims; you work the claim with your insurance company. Texas law requires you to pay your deductible, and we never waive or rebate it. In Texas you generally have 1 year from the date of loss to file; check your policy.
We're certified with GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, Atlas, Johns Manville, Carlisle, Tropical Roofing Products, Mule-Hide and Enviroshake, and many other roof manufacturers. Both 10-year and 20-year manufacturer NDL (no-dollar-limit) warranties are available on commercial jobs.
