Flat roofs on commercial buildings deal with challenges residential roofs don't: rooftop HVAC units, exhaust fans, plumbing penetrations, satellite equipment, foot traffic, and ponding water. Des Moines Roofing & Maintenance has the training and equipment to handle all of it across Des Moines.
Ponding water is the number one cause of commercial roof failure. Water that doesn't drain within 48 hours degrades the membrane and insulation underneath. Des Moines Roofing & Maintenance installs tapered insulation systems that create positive drainage to scuppers, drains, or roof edges, minimum quarter-inch per foot slope.
Our Commercial Roofing Process
Building Inspection
We inspect the entire commercial roof: membrane condition, seam integrity, flashing details, penetration seals, drain function, and insulation condition. Core samples reveal moisture levels in the existing system. You receive a detailed written report.

Commercial roofing proposals from Des Moines Roofing & Maintenance include detailed specs, phasing plan if applicable, tenant coordination plan, and a realistic timeline. One number, no surprises.
Commercial Installation
Installation phased to minimize disruption to your tenants and business operations. Debris containment, noise management, and clean work areas maintained throughout the project. Project manager on-site for every commercial installation.
Warranty & Maintenance
Final roof inspection with photo documentation. Warranty paperwork provided. We recommend an annual maintenance plan to catch issues early and maintain warranty compliance.
