Commercial & Flat Roofing
South Carolina’s Around-the-Clock Commercial Roofing Team
Commercial roofs are a different discipline from residential ones. The flat and low-slope membranes on apartment buildings, office towers, shopping centers, restaurants, warehouses, and manufacturing plants have to manage standing water, dozens of rooftop penetrations, HVAC curbs, drains and scuppers, foot traffic, and the same punishing South Carolina weather that batters homes — coastal hurricane-force wind and salt air along the Lowcountry and Grand Strand, hail and severe thunderstorms across the Midlands and Upstate, and relentless summer heat statewide. Get any part of that wrong and the business below pays for it in downtime, damaged inventory, and unhappy tenants.
247 Roofs handles commercial roofing in South Carolina end to end — small leak repairs, re-roofs and full tear-offs, restoration coatings, and scheduled maintenance that protects your budget and your warranty. Because a commercial leak can shut down operations, our 24/7 emergency line is always open: a real person answers, we triage the situation, and we dispatch to stop the water. We work around your hours, your tenants, and your leasing calendar to keep disruption low, and we back every installation with manufacturer and workmanship warranties.
Buildings We Roof
Commercial Property Types We Serve Across SC
We do a lot of commercial work, and we do it across the full range of building types. Each has its own quirks — tenant coordination, rooftop equipment, budget cycles, insurance exposure — and we scope the job around them:
Apartments & Multifamily
Garden-style complexes, mid-rise buildings, condos and townhome communities. Phased re-roofs that keep residents in place with minimal disruption.
Office & Retail
Office parks, medical and professional suites, strip malls, mixed-use, and standalone storefronts. Cool-roof options and after-hours scheduling.
Warehouse & Industrial
Distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and large-footprint low-slope roofs. Big TPO/EPDM and metal systems, coatings and restoration.
HOAs & Condos
Community associations and condo boards. We work with boards and property managers on budgets, reserves, and portfolio-wide phasing.
Hospitality
Hotels, motels, and event venues along the coast and Interstate corridors, where a leak over a guest room can’t wait until morning.
Churches, Schools & Civic
Places of worship, schools, and community buildings — often mixed steep-slope and flat roofs that need a contractor comfortable with both.

Systems We Install
Commercial Roof Systems Built for South Carolina
The right system depends on your building, roof traffic, budget, and how long you plan to hold the property. We install and service the membranes and metal systems that perform best in the Carolinas’ heat, humidity, wind, and hail:
TPO Single-Ply
A reflective white membrane that bounces back heat — energy-efficient and cost-effective for SC’s long, hot summers. A go-to for retail, offices, and warehouses.
EPDM Rubber
A durable rubber membrane known for long service life and weather resistance — a proven workhorse for flat and low-slope roofs of every size.
Modified Bitumen & BUR
Tough, multi-layer asphalt-based systems that stand up to foot traffic and rooftop activity — ideal where crews service equipment on the roof.
Restoration Coatings
Silicone and acrylic coatings that seal seams, reflect heat, and extend the life of an aging roof — often at a fraction of full-replacement cost.
Commercial Metal
Standing-seam and exposed-fastener panel systems for coastal and industrial buildings that need long life and high wind resistance.
Maintenance Programs
Scheduled inspections and upkeep that catch small problems early and protect your manufacturer warranty and your operating budget.
Repair, Restore, or Replace
The Right Call for Your Roof — and Your Budget
Not every commercial roof needs to be torn off. We give you an honest read on where yours stands and lay out the options:
- Repair — seam failures, flashing issues, punctures, and open penetrations fixed before they spread. The fastest, lowest-cost fix when the membrane is generally sound.
- Restore & coat — a restoration coating over a serviceable roof can add years of life, cut cooling costs with a reflective surface, and defer a large capital expense.
- Re-roof or replace — when the membrane is at the end of its life or storm-damaged beyond repair, a tear-off and new system is the sound long-term investment. We handle recover and full tear-off alike.
Storm & Insurance
Commercial Storm Damage & Claims
Flat roofs take a beating in SC hail and coastal wind, and the damage is easy to miss until a tenant reports a leak. We inspect commercial roofs for storm damage, document what we find the way adjusters expect, and can coordinate with your insurance carrier on a covered claim.
Learn how our storm & hail damage restoration works and how our insurance claim help supports commercial properties from inspection through final repair.
24/7 Commercial Leak Response
When a Tenant Calls at 2 AM, So Can You
The name says it: 247 Roofs is built around the clock. A commercial leak doesn’t keep business hours — it shows up during a Lowcountry thunderstorm, a Grand Strand named storm, or a Midlands hail event, and it threatens inventory, electronics, tenant spaces, and your ability to stay open. When you call our 24/7 emergency line, a real person answers, triages the situation, and dispatches a crew to stop the water with emergency tarping and temporary repairs. We document everything for your insurance claim as we go, then schedule the permanent fix around your operations. For property managers running multiple buildings, one number covers your whole portfolio, any hour, any day.

Commercial Roofing FAQ
Commercial Roof Questions, Answered
What types of commercial buildings do you roof?
A wide range across South Carolina — apartment complexes and multifamily communities, condos and HOAs, office buildings, retail centers, and mixed-use, hotels and hospitality, and warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing plants, plus churches, schools, and civic buildings. If it has a flat, low-slope, or metal roof, we can handle it.
What is the best flat roof system for an SC building?
It depends on your building, budget, roof traffic, and how long you plan to own the property. TPO is popular for its reflective, energy-efficient surface; EPDM is prized for durability; modified bitumen handles heavy foot traffic; and restoration coatings can extend an aging roof affordably. We assess your roof and recommend the right fit rather than pushing one product.
Can you repair or restore my roof instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. If the membrane is generally sound and the problem is localized — a seam, a flashing, a puncture — a targeted repair or a restoration coating can add years of life at a fraction of replacement cost. We give you an honest read on repair versus restore versus replace.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency service for commercial roofs?
Yes — it’s our core identity. Our 24/7 emergency line covers commercial buildings and whole portfolios. If a storm or sudden leak threatens your operations, call (980) 209-1666 any hour and we respond, including emergency tarping to protect the interior while we plan the permanent repair.
Will the work disrupt my tenants or my business?
We plan around your operations — scheduling with your hours and tenants in mind, phasing larger jobs, staging materials to keep areas accessible, and maintaining a controlled, safe job site. For multifamily and retail, we coordinate tenant notices so residents and customers aren’t caught off guard.
