Where tile belongs on a commercial building.
Tile goes where the roof is part of the architecture. Nobody puts it on a warehouse; a membrane wins that job on cost every time. But on a clubhouse at the front of a community, or a condo building the residents see from the pool deck every day, the roof is a surface people judge the property by, and in Palm Beach County the expected answer is tile. A good share of that work is in Jupiter: clubhouse roofs at the front of a community, and pitched condo roofs a board has to replace one building at a time.
We install clay and concrete both, in the barrel and flat profiles and the color blends community boards expect. Tile carries the top Class A fire rating, and its color holds through decades of Florida sun. Clay in particular reflects much of the heat it takes, and that shows up in the cooling load.
Clubhouses and gatehouses
The first buildings anyone sees, and usually required to match the homes behind them.
Condo and multifamily
Pitched roofs across occupied buildings, replaced in phases so the property keeps working.
Offices and retail
Street-facing pitched roofs that customers see before they walk in.
Mixed-slope buildings
Tile on the slopes people see, a membrane on the flat sections behind them.
The structure gets checked before the tile gets ordered.
Tile is the heaviest covering we install, several times the weight of an equivalent shingle roof. So the first question on a commercial tile job is structural. Before tile goes onto a building that has been carrying a lighter system, an engineer verifies the framing will take the load, and that verification is filed with the permit package. A building that already wears tile is simpler: like for like, with the deck inspected once the old roof comes off.
The other half of the engineering is wind. Design wind speeds here are among the highest in the country, so every assembly is specified to the wind-uplift standard the code sets for coastal Palm Beach County, using tile systems that carry Miami-Dade product approvals. Under the tile, a waterproof layer does the actual waterproofing, and the tile takes the sun and the wind. That layering is why we get on the roof before we quote one. The tile can look fine while the layer beneath it has failed.
Replacement in phases, around the people who live there.
A commercial tile replacement is rarely one roof. It is a property full of buildings with cars parked under them and a resident behind every door, so the work is sequenced: it runs building by building, tile is delivered and loaded onto the section being worked, and any section we open is dried in before the crew leaves it. Entries and driveways outside the immediate work zone stay open.
The board gets the sequence in writing before the first delivery: which buildings come in which order, and what each phase closes off while the crew is on it. Deliveries are scheduled inside the workday. If the project has to spread across budget years as well as buildings, that conversation belongs at the start, and the financing page covers how larger projects get funded.
What stands behind a commercial tile roof.
Two things: the tile maker's material warranty on the tile itself, and our workmanship on the installation. There is no GAF program behind tile, because GAF does not make a tile product. We hold GAF certifications on our other systems; they cover those systems only.
What that standing covers on the systems it does apply to is on the GAF certified contractors page. On tile, judge us by the record instead. We have roofed Palm Beach County under Florida license CCC1335204 since 2015 and hold 5.0 stars. Tile on a single home is its own subject with its own page: residential tile roofing.
The other commercial systems.
Tile is one of five systems we run on commercial buildings. The full picture is on the commercial roofing page.
Shingles
For pitched commercial roofs where the budget outranks the architecture: commercial shingles.
Metal
The longest service life we install, and the usual answer close to the water: commercial metal.
TPO
The flat-roof standard, a membrane with heat-welded seams: commercial TPO.
Coating
Restores an aging flat roof in place, with no tear-off: commercial coating.
