We work with business owners, property managers, churches, multifamily communities, and other commercial property owners who want clear recommendations and dependable workmanship.

Full-Service Commercial Roofing Solutions for Billings Businesses
Kirkness Roofing provides commercial installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance services for properties throughout Billings and Yellowstone County.
Commercial Roof Installation
Our commercial roofing installation contractors help property owners select systems based on roof design, drainage, building use, weather exposure, and long-term maintenance needs. Proper installation of seams, flashing, penetrations, insulation, and drainage components is critical to the performance of the entire roof.
Commercial Roof Replacement
Replacement may become the practical choice when a roof has widespread deterioration, repeated leaks, significant storm damage, or repair costs that continue to add up.
Our commercial roof replacement services in Billings are based on the actual condition of the roof. We’ll explain whether replacement makes sense now or whether repair can still provide useful service life.
Commercial Roof Repair
Leaks and damage often develop around seams, flashing, drains, penetrations, and roof edges. Addressing these problems early can help prevent moisture from spreading into insulation, decking, ceilings, or occupied areas.
Commercial Roof Maintenance
Preventative commercial roof maintenance helps property owners catch developing issues before they become larger repair projects. Regular attention to drainage, flashing, membrane condition, and rooftop components can also make future roofing costs easier to plan.
Commercial Roofing Systems We Install in Billings
Different commercial properties need different roofing systems. Kirkness Roofing installs several proven options for flat and low-slope buildings.
EPDM Roofing
EPDM is a flexible synthetic rubber membrane commonly used on flat and low-slope commercial roofs. It offers a straightforward, durable option for many commercial applications.
TPO Roofing
TPO is a single-ply thermoplastic membrane with heat-welded seams and a reflective surface. It’s commonly chosen for commercial buildings where durability and rooftop heat exposure are important considerations.
PVC Roofing
PVC is another heat-welded single-ply membrane system. It may be a good fit for properties that need resistance to certain chemicals, grease, or other rooftop exposures.
Modified Bitumen Roofing
Modified bitumen is an asphalt-based low-slope roofing system reinforced for durability. Its layered construction makes it a proven option for many commercial buildings.
Flat and Low-Slope Roofing
Flat roofs still require carefully designed drainage. Proper slope, drains, scuppers, flashing, and membrane installation all play a role in preventing standing water and extending roof performance.
How Billings Weather Affects Commercial Roofs
Billings weather can place significant stress on commercial roofing systems. Hail may damage membranes and rooftop components, while strong winds can affect roof edges and attachment points. Snow and freeze-thaw cycles can expose weak seams, flashing, and drainage problems.
Flat and low-slope roofs require particular attention because water and melting snow leave the roof more slowly. Keeping drains clear and addressing low areas or damaged membrane sections can help reduce avoidable moisture problems.

Our Commercial Roofing Process
A commercial roofing project should have a clear path from the first estimate through completion.
1. Evaluate the Roof
We start by learning about the building, the roofing concern, and your priorities. Our team evaluates visible roof conditions, drainage, flashing, and other factors that may affect the recommendation.
2. Review Your Options
We explain whether repair, maintenance, or replacement makes the most sense based on the condition of the system and the long-term needs of the property.
3. Select the Roofing System
For installation and replacement projects, we help you compare materials based on roof design, performance, warranty options, and budget.
4. Plan and Complete the Project
Commercial roofing can affect employees, tenants, customers, deliveries, and building access. We coordinate scheduling and keep property owners informed throughout the work.

Commercial Roofing Questions Billings Property Owners Ask
Here are answers to common questions about commercial roofing in Billings.
How do I know if my commercial roof needs repair or replacement?
Whether your commercial roof needs repair or replacement depends on the extent of the damage, age of the system, leak history, and overall condition. Localized issues may be repairable, while widespread deterioration or repeated failures can make replacement the better long-term choice.
How often should a commercial roof be checked in Billings?
A commercial roof should be checked regularly and after significant hail, wind, or other severe weather in Billings. Routine evaluations can help identify drainage problems, membrane damage, or loose flashing before they cause larger problems.
What type of commercial roofing system is best for a flat roof?
The best commercial roofing system for a flat roof depends on the building, drainage design, rooftop conditions, budget, and performance goals. EPDM, TPO, PVC, and modified bitumen can all be appropriate depending on the property.
Can a leaking commercial roof be repaired without full replacement?
A leaking commercial roof can often be repaired without full replacement when the source is localized and the rest of the system remains in serviceable condition. A professional evaluation can determine whether repair is still a practical option.
How does hail affect commercial roofs in Billings?
Hail can damage commercial roofs in Billings by affecting membranes, flashing, seams, and rooftop components. Some damage is obvious, while other impacts may weaken the system and cause problems later.
Why should I choose a local commercial roofing contractor in Billings?
Choosing a local commercial roofing contractor in Billings gives you a company familiar with regional weather, building conditions, and commercial roofing needs. Kirkness Roofing has served the area since 1978 and has a long-established reputation to maintain.
Commercial Roofing FAQs
Reviews
Kirkness Roofing Inc
144 Moore Ln, Billings
- Kirkness Roofing just replaced my roof — house, detached garage, and shed — and I couldn't be happier. I had wind damage twice over the winter and Jerome came out within hours both times to patch things up until it was warm enough … More for a full replacement. That kind of response is hard to find.
Jerome is honest, trustworthy, and just an all around great guy. The entire company is super professional with top notch customer service, and they use quality materials too. Be prepared to have extreme professionalism and not some fly-by-night roofer who is quick to collect payment and then vanishes.
The crew knocked out all three structures in 8 hours. Seriously impressive. What a great crew!
You will absolutely love Jerome!
See pictures of Jerome tarping my roof during the second wind event, the crew replacing my roof, and the finished product.
Highly recommend Kirkness Roofing — you won't regret it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Kirkness roofing completed our roof last week. It was an amazing experience and Jerome was so helpful every step of the way. We have a very large roof and it was completed in record time. The follow- through by all of the staff was excellent. … More I’m so glad we went with Kirkness because of their customer service and the education they provided. Great job!!
- There aren't enough stars on this scale!
I would give Kirkness Roofing 10 Stars! Three hailstorms left us with damage to the roof, siding and several windows on our home. We asked Andy to come take a look at it, and from that moment … More on we've been so thankful we did. He worked closely with the insurance company and, imagine this, our insurer told us how much they really like working with Kirkness due to their professionalism. If that's not a solid recommendation I don't know what is!
There were several sub-contractors on this job, as the entire exterior of the home was re-done, including all doors and windows replaced. Every person who worked on this project did a great job: they knew what they were doing and completed the work expertly and efficiently.
The work was completed on time, on budget (down to fifty-one cents!) and (much to my relief) to the satisfaction of my husband, who has quite a bit of construction experience in his lifetime.
We can't thank Andy and all his crew enough for the fine work they did for us! - I hired Kirkness Roofing about 5 years ago to roof my house. I called several companies and was put off by some or their prices and how they explained their process, didn't hold up to Kirkness. They did the work in a timely manner, … More at a reasonable cost and cleaned up all the nails and any trash at the end.
I recently had a tree blow over, landing on my roof and breaking my skylight. Wind and debris were blowing through my bathroom. I called Kirkness and they came out to my house within a couple hours to seal things up. Super nice guys!
Jerome came out to give me an estimate on the repair. He was thorough, knowledgeable, patient and very up front about what they could get for a replacement, the cost and when the job would be finished.
Andy and his crew have always been responsive, patient, thorough and have done a great job at a good price. They are extremely trustworthy and get the job done right. - This is an outstanding company!
This is what I experienced: honesty,
fairness, excellent communication and quality workmanship. Co-owner Andy negotiated tirelessly with my insurance company to insure that they honored my claim for hail … More damage. He is the reason that I now have new roofs on my residence and outbuildings. Thank you Andy and the entire Kirkness Roofing staff! - Harley with Kirkness Roofing was awesome and very professional! Had a shingle tear off completely near The roofs Ridge vent. Had to call a roofing company as I just had shoulder surgery and couldn’t do the repair myself. Called a different … More local company first which had an automated answering system. Based on great reviews called Kirkness Roofing.l next. Person answered the phone immediately. Explained the problems regarding my roof and scheduled a free consultation/inspection. Harley came out inspected the roof and put up a temporary protective barrier over area needing repaired. Scheduled the repair as they are a few days out. After Harley left immediately received a confirmation email very professional company and they stand behind their work. Was a little anxious about having a roofing company come out because roofs aren’t cheap. Harley with Kirkness Roofing surprised us by their kindness and clear explanation of what needed to be done and made me feel confident in their services. I don’t usually do reviews but this is one of those times worth taking time to help spread the word!!!
- Jerome made our roof repair an easy process. Kirkness really looks out for its clients. Roof installation is perfect and communication with the staff is excellent. I would recommend Kirkness for any roofing needs in the future 100%.
- We recently moved into a new home and found out the shingles used on the roof made us eligible for a discount on our homeowner’s insurance. Having not worked with any local roofing companies before, we did a google search and chose Kirkness … More Roofing because of the plethora of good reviews. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. It was quickly evident why there were so many glowing testimonials! Jerome, in particular, was a standout. His professionalism and expertise shone through. Not only did he help us complete our certification, he checked in a day later to make sure the insurance company had all they needed. Needless to say, we will be using Kirkness for all of our future roofing needs.
