COMMON COMMERCIAL ROOFING PROBLEMS
Poor Drainage
The Basics: Heavy rain and snow on a commercial roof can form puddles which wear away at the roof material. The water then works its way inside, creating a leak.
WHY it happens: Many commercial buildings have flat roofing. A perfectly flat surface will not drain naturally after it rains or snows. Standing or ponding water can lead to expensive leaks.
HOW to prevent it: Professional roofing installation from Excel Roofing on a “flat” roof will include low slopes with a very slight pitch to drain water. Other features like flashing materials and gutters will also promote better drainage.
Leaky Flashing
The Basics: Flashing weatherproof material is used to reinforce roof joints and seams. Leaks around flashing can weaken already vulnerable areas of the roof.
WHY it happens: Chimneys, windows, and HVAC systems all create gaps in roofing material requiring flashing. If the flashing is not installed correctly, it won’t keep water out.
HOW to prevent it: Excel Roofing will recommend the right material and style flashing for your roof. will give you an estimate on installing and replacement so you know the costs upfront.
Membrane Shrinkage
The Basics: Certain roofing materials like PVC or EPDM membranes can shrink under extreme conditions.
WHY it happens: DIY roofing projects may mix incompatible materials, leading to a weaker membrane more prone to shrinkage. Poor installation may result in an ill-fitting roof with shrunken sections.
HOW to prevent it: Professional roof installation will result in a better fit with the right materials, reducing the chances of shrinkage.
Commercial Roofing FAQs in Minnesota
How long does a commercial roof last in Minnesota?
Commercial roof lifespan depends on the system installed. TPO and EPDM roofs typically last 20–30 years with proper maintenance. Modified bitumen systems often last 15–25 years, while metal commercial roofing can exceed 40 years. Minnesota weather conditions such as snow load, freeze-thaw cycles, and storm exposure impact longevity, which is why routine inspections are critical.
How do I know if my commercial roof needs repair or replacement?
Small leaks, flashing damage, membrane punctures, or ponding water may only require repair. However, widespread deterioration, repeated leaks, structural damage, or an aging roofing system often indicate full replacement is more cost-effective long term. A professional commercial roof inspection can determine the best solution.
