Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection
A proper commercial roof inspection in Ellettsville is more than a quick look from a ladder. Our crew walks the roof and checks membrane seams, flashings at walls and curbs, drains and scuppers, rooftop equipment penetrations, and any low spots holding water. We look for hail bruising, wind lifted edges, split seams, and the age related wear that shows up on TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen systems common on Ellettsville commercial buildings. Everything gets documented with photos so you have a real record of the roof's condition. That documentation matters if there's a storm claim, and it matters for budgeting. Small problems on an Ellettsville commercial roof get expensive fast when they sit through another season.

Every Ellettsville reroof decision eventually collides with the same question: recover or tear off. Code allows one recover in most cases, and it saves real money when the existing insulation is dry. But recovering over moisture locks the problem under two roofs instead of one. The core samples cost a few hundred dollars. Guessing wrong on a Monroe County warehouse costs the difference between systems.
Crews at Ellettsville Commercial Roofing are trained on the systems they install, with safety plans on site before work starts and badges before anyone asks. Ellettsville tenants get coordinated in advance, docks stay usable, and business hours get respected, because a Monroe County reroof that stops the business under it costs more than the roof.
Leveling bids for a reroof? Ellettsville Commercial Roofing writes specifications Ellettsville owners can hand to three contractors and actually compare what comes back: systems named, thicknesses stated, exclusions listed. Call (765) 978-5086. A Monroe County owner who understands the spec cannot be ambushed by the invoice, and the low bid stops being a mystery box.

Ellettsville Commercial Roofing serves Ellettsville property managers with commercial roofing work across Monroe County and the surrounding areas of Bloomington, Spencer, Gosport, and Martinsville. Founded in 2018 by Aaron Christy (featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6), the company has spent years focused on commercial roofs across central Indiana, from strip centers to warehousing. Our crews are local, licensed, and insured under Indiana license RC21100059. When you call about a roof in Ellettsville, you're getting people who know the building stock in Monroe County and how these low slope systems actually behave.
The way we work in Ellettsville is straightforward. A crew gets on the roof, walks the field, checks seams, flashings, penetrations, and drainage, and documents what they find with photos. You get a written estimate with a clear scope, plain pricing, and transparent line items added later. When the work starts, we protect the building below, keep the site tidy, and finish with a walkthrough so nothing is left ambiguous. No invented certifications, no brochure talk, just commercial roofing done with care.
Our Promise
We make three commitments to every Ellettsville property manager we work with. First, a free on site inspection of the commercial roof before any work is quoted or scheduled. Second, an honest written estimate that spells out the scope so there are transparent line items after we start. Third, clean workmanship on the roof and around the building, backed by a workmanship warranty in addition to the standard manufacturer coverage that comes with the materials we install.
What Makes a Ellettsville Commercial Roofing Roof Different
Serving Ellettsville and Monroe County with quality materials, thorough inspections, and transparent pricing.
Storm And Hail Response
After hail or high winds move through Monroe County, we prioritize commercial properties with visible damage or active leaks. Crews check for bruised membrane, punctures, and lifted flashings, then document conditions with photos before anything else. You get a clear picture of what happened and what needs attention first.
Ellettsville Building Knowledge
We work on the kinds of commercial roofs Ellettsville actually has, from older masonry buildings near the downtown core to newer low slope membrane roofs along the SR 46 corridor. That means we recognize the failure patterns quickly. Property managers spend less time explaining the building and more time getting it fixed.
Full-Scope Commercial Roofing
From the first inspection to the final walkthrough, one company handles it. Inspection, repair, replacement, emergency work, or metal install, all under the same license and the same crew standards. That keeps accountability simple for Ellettsville property managers juggling multiple sites.
Insurance Documentation Done Right
When there's a storm claim, we photograph damage, note test squares, and write findings so your carrier's adjuster has what they need. We don't works with your insurance carrier and we don't name drop policies. We document what the Ellettsville roof shows and let the facts do the talking.
Real Jobs. Real Results.

How We Handle Ellettsville Roof Access
The first step on any Ellettsville commercial roof is the inspection. A crew comes out, walks the roof, and looks at seams, flashings, drains, penetrations, and any areas where storm or age damage typically shows up. We take photos as we go so nothing is described from memory. Before anything is quoted, you'll have a clear picture of the roof's condition and a defined scope for what actually needs to happen. That way an Ellettsville property manager isn't guessing about the state of the building.
Next comes the written estimate. It spells out the scope in plain language, with line items you can read without a decoder. If the damage on your Ellettsville commercial roof looks storm related, we help by documenting what we found with photos and notes that your insurance carrier and their adjuster can use during the claim process. We don't works with your insurance carrier and we won't name policies we don't know. We just make sure the facts about the roof are on paper.
Once the scope and estimate are approved, we schedule the work around your operations. The crew stages materials carefully, protects the building and the areas below the roof, and completes the commercial roofing work cleanly. When we're done on your Ellettsville property, we walk the finished roof with you or your representative, review what was done, and clean up the site. You get the workmanship warranty paperwork and the standard manufacturer coverage that comes with the materials installed.
Free Inspection With Photos
A crew walks the commercial roof, checks the trouble spots, and documents everything with photos. No charge for the visit and no obligation to move forward. You get a clear read on the roof before any decisions.
Honest Written Estimate
You receive a written estimate with a defined scope and plain line items. No surprise add ons after work begins. If something changes mid project, we talk about it before we do it, not after.
Insurance Documentation
For storm damage claims on Ellettsville commercial roofs, we photograph and note conditions so your carrier's adjuster has real information to work from. We work with your insurance process. We don't works with your insurance carrier.
Clean Work, Final Walkthrough
The crew protects the building, keeps the site orderly, and finishes with a walkthrough of the completed roof. You review the work, get the paperwork, and know what's covered under workmanship and the manufacturer's standard terms.
What we see most often on Ellettsville commercial roofs
Ellettsville property managers typically call us about these scenarios.
Low Spots That Never Fully Drain
Ponding is the industry term for water still up there 48 hours after the rain stops. Standing water adds load, the deck deflects a little more under it, and in winter the ice shifts with every temperature swing and scrubs the membrane. Low slope roofs are designed for a quarter inch per foot minimum, and where that never got built, Ellettsville Commercial Roofing adds tapered insulation and crickets.
Coping Joints Feeding the Wall Below
Coping caps the top of a parapet, and the joints between sections move all year with temperature. When splice plates and sealant give up, water goes into the top of the wall and turns up inside on a floor nobody associates with the roof. Ellettsville Commercial Roofing inspects coping joints and parapet base flashing together on Ellettsville buildings, because they are one system and they fail as one.
Storm and Wind Damage
Wind peels membrane at corners and perimeters where uplift is highest, and hail bruises single ply in ways that fail two winters later. Ellettsville Commercial Roofing documents damage to commercial carrier standards, separates storm damage from wear in writing, and supports the claim through adjuster review so Ellettsville building owners are not funding covered repairs out of pocket.
Wet Insulation Spreading Under the Membrane
The wet area under a low slope roof is almost always larger than the ceiling stain, because water gets past the membrane and travels sideways through the insulation until something stops it. An infrared scan does not see water. It sees heat, and wet board holds warmth longer after sunset, so it lights up at night. That tells Ellettsville Commercial Roofing where to look, and a core cut tells you whether it is wet.
Rooftop Equipment the Roof Gets Blamed For
Condensate lines, drain pans, unit panel joints, and duct connections all sit above an occupied ceiling, and any one of them can drip on a tenant without the membrane being involved. Water runs along the deck flutes and appears somewhere else entirely. Ellettsville Commercial Roofing traces it to the source and puts the finding in writing, even when the finding is that your mechanical contractor owes you a visit.
Ballast and Coatings at the End of Their Run
Stone ballast hides everything under it, so a split sheet can sit open a long time before anybody knows. Coating systems have their own clock, since the film thins under UV and foot traffic. Ellettsville Commercial Roofing tells you which one you have and whether a restoration coating even applies here, because coatings go over a roof that is sound and dry, and wet insulation has to come out first.

Roof Questions From Across Ellettsville
Straight answers to the questions Ellettsville property managers ask most.
Indiana Weather Affects Commercial Roofs Year Round
Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Ellettsville property managers deal with spring hail and severe thunderstorms, summer UV exposure, fall wind storms, and winter freeze thaw cycles. Understanding these patterns is how we plan maintenance, repairs, and replacement work.
Hail Bruising On Membrane
After the February 2026 storms brought hail across Monroe County, we saw the classic pattern on Ellettsville commercial roofs. Hail can bruise TPO and EPDM membrane without visible punctures, weakening the sheet where it will fail later. Our crew maps impact zones with photos and marks areas that need patching or full section repair.
Wind-Lifted Seams And Edges
High winds along the open SR 46 and SR 37 corridors work at membrane edges and seams over time. Once an edge lifts, water gets under the sheet and the problem compounds. When called in, we reset and re terminate the affected areas and check adjacent seams before it spreads further.
Ponding Water After Heavy Rain
Ellettsville sits on rolling terrain, and the low slope roofs along the retail and industrial corridors don't always drain the way they should. Ponding water accelerates membrane breakdown and stresses seams around drains. We check drainage during inspection and address blocked scuppers, damaged drains, or low spots holding water.
Aging Flashing And Membrane
A lot of the low slope commercial roofing across Ellettsville dates from the 1980s through the early 2000s, which puts many roofs at or past their expected service life. Flashings at walls and curbs get brittle, seams open, and the field membrane loses flexibility. We assess whether targeted repair still makes sense or replacement is the honest answer.
Choosing the Right Commercial Roof System in Ellettsville
An honest breakdown of the three low slope systems we install most frequently.
The most common commercial roof in Ellettsville is a single ply low slope membrane, typically TPO or EPDM, sometimes modified bitumen on older buildings. Owners choose it because it fits the flat and low slope structures along SR 46 and SR 37, installs efficiently over large areas, and holds up reasonably well when maintained. Seams and flashings are the wear points, which is why regular inspection matters more than the specific brand of membrane on the roof.
For Ellettsville buildings that have taken hail hits before, a thicker membrane (60 mil or 80 mil TPO or EPDM instead of 45 mil) is often worth the upgrade. The heavier sheet resists hail bruising and foot traffic damage from rooftop equipment servicing, which matters on properties with dense HVAC and mechanical loads. The material cost is higher, but the service life stretches and the repair frequency drops, which usually pencils out for property managers holding a building long term.
Standing seam metal is the long life option for Ellettsville commercial properties, often used on newer builds or steep slope sections of mixed roof buildings. It carries a much longer expected service life than membrane, sheds water well, and holds up to wind when properly fastened and detailed. The tradeoff is higher upfront cost and more complex flashing at penetrations, so it makes the most sense when the building will be held for decades or the aesthetic matters.
