COMMERCIAL ROOF REPLACEMENT
A Leading Commercial
Roof Replacement Company
The roof of a commercial building is vital to its structure. Like all roofs, however, commercial roofs can sustain damage, wear and tear due to aging, or weaken as a result of various factors. When this happens, your roof becomes more vulnerable to escalating damage. While it is often possible to repair damage without replacement, there comes the point in every roof’s lifespan when a full replacement makes more sense than endless repairs.
When is it Time for a Commercial
Roof Replacement?
We don’t push clients toward commercial roof replacement versus commercial roof repair. Instead, we thoroughly inspect your building and your current roof to ensure that if we’re recommending a full replacement, it’s the option that makes the most sense for you practically and economically.
Here at Kirkness Roofing Inc., every member of our team is highly trained and experienced in our industry. We know how to read the signs of easily repairable damage versus the indications that it’s time to invest in a full replacement. There are certain red flags that we look for, including:
Water Infiltration
This will be visible within the building in the form of leaks and water marks and stains. Often this is a sign of external roof damage, which if left unchecked, could cause even further damage to your business’ property. While this may be possible to remedy with commercial roof repairs, depending on the extent of the damage, it could signal the need for a full commercial roof replacement.
Damaged Roof Membrane
Harsh weather or general wear and tear could cause irreparable damage to commercial roofs. This includes lifting, curling or cracking of the roof’s membrane, all of which exposes the property to external elements, which can pose a hazard to your staff and business equipment.
Age
Unfortunately this is a factor none of us can get away from. Turns out roofs also have a finite lifespan too, which is made shorter if regular maintenance and repairs were not adhered to. Repairs can only add so many years on to the life of your commercial roof, but sometimes a commercial roof replacement is inevitable.
Of course, there are also many smaller tells that might not be obvious to the untrained eye, but our team will catch them! A problematic roof can escalate very quickly into damage that affects your entire building, so give us a call as soon as possible.
The Difference Between Replacing and Repairing Your Roof
At Kirkness Roofing Inc., we perform both commercial roof replacement and commercial roof repair. Commercial roof repair is performed for small problems like a single leak or a handful of missing shingles. The tasks are simple but necessary. Commercial roof replacement is different, in that we remove your existing roof and replace it with a new one, to ensure that it’s safe and operating optimally. We can install an array of commercial roof types, such as single-ply membrane roofs, modified bitumen roofs, flat roofs, and many more!
Reliable Commercial Roof Replacements
No matter the style of roof system you have, or the materials used in its construction, we can take a look and reliably figure out whether a repair or a replacement is in your best interest. Whether your roof is large or small, modern or aging, sloped or flat, we have the knowledge and expertise you need to guide your decision.
If you are considering a commercial roof replacement, call Kirkness Roofing Inc. today. We’ll be happy to consult or schedule an appointment for a free estimate.

I had a concern about my roof, so I called Kirkness Roofing who had installed it back in 2014. Andy and his son came out the very next day and gave me a free follow up inspection. They were both very knowledgeable and put my mind to rest. … More It’s nice to see a company take care of its customers. Highly recommend them.

During a recent windstorm, part of our roof cap tore off exposing the open area which could allow the environment to gain entry. We contacted our insurance agent and a claim process was initiated. Expecting to be under warranty from the … More prior installer, they came out and said the entire roof needed to be repaired. We again contacted our insurance agent as this seemed to be pretty extreme.
I was then speaking with a friend, and he said maybe get a second opinion to verify the findings of the previous install company. I did and Kirkness was suggested by a couple of people.
Andrew and Zach came out and looked over the roof. There was moderate damage except for the area of wind damage. They did not think a full replacement was the best path to take and suggested repairing the small damage area thus saving us the cost of our deductible.
They returned the following day, made the repair and you can't tell there was any damage. I missed them before they left and when we called Andrew for costs, he said don't worry about it, materials were minimal, and the 40 minutes was a way of saying thanks for calling us to provide service.
This will go a long way if and when I need further assistance with any of my roofing needs. Truly service excellence demonstrated by Andrew, Zach and Kirkness roofing. -
I noticed a stain and a crack in the living room ceiling earlier in the week and knew I needed to find someone local who could diagnose the issue and make the repairs necessary. I called Kirkness Roofing on a Saturday morning and was pleasantly … More surprised at how quickly Andrew, the General Manager came out. I showed him the stain and crack in the ceiling and he quickly found the problem. A rubber boot had split around an HVAC pipe and he was able to fix it right there on the spot. Andrew is one of the nicest people you’ll ever encounter and knows the business. I’m grateful I called him, and I know you will be too.

Kirkness is my roofing company of choice. Emergency repairs, steep roofs, metal, membrane. The work is always perfect and done in a timely manner. I don't know what I'd do without them. They make my job easier and that is … More everything a building manager needs.

When I found a leak in my attic, I researched many local roofers but I’m glad I called Kirkness. They gave me guidance until snow cleared from my roof then Rob went up and resealed a spot he identified as the problem. Rob was honest, quick, … More and definitely earned a customer for life. I highly recommend Kirkness.

Top notch service and delivery. My roof was leaking in several spots and we needed a new one before the winter. It was a small project on a double wide trailer but instead of pushing us off like most other roofing companies, these guys … More made us a priority and got the roof done before the snow fell. Good job guys!

Kirkness has been my roofer of choice for over a decade. They work with your insurer, provide detailed, itemized estimates and are a locally owned business here in Billings and are invested in doing professional, quality work. They can … More handle jobs that require customized fabrication and leave your jobsite absolutely nail-free and tidy. In 2010, after the tornado, when the city was full of out-of-state roofers of all stripes, we knew that relying on local was best and best for Billings. From the office staff to the roof crews, Kirkness is definitely 5 Stars! I wholeheartedly tell you that you're going to be happy with their work and their integrity.

I called Kirkness after realizing our roof was leaking when it rained, into the house. I've never had to deal with such an issue, and am not well educated on roofing. Rob came out on time, which was a HUGE help because I only had limited … More time due to my work schedule to meet with someone at the home. He was kind, considerate, educational and even went the extra mile to caulk/seal some areas of our roof that had flexed due to the age of the home, to see if that would stop the leaking at no charge. I was skeptical, but it stopped the leak and this was after a previous company came out and tried to convince us to submit an insurance claim and replace the roof.
Rob saved us time, money, and from the fear of having a really awful spring. It's rained a few times since and not a drop. Thank you Kirkness for being there quickly and not taking advantage! We will definitely be coming back in the future!
