Paramus buildings
Flat roofs are everywhere in Paramus
From the shops around Westfield Garden State Plaza, Paramus Park and the Fashion Center to car dealerships, medical buildings, self-storage and light industrial space, ProTech repairs and replaces flat roofs for Paramus businesses, whether that means a single leak repair or a full tear-off.
Whatever the business, the job is the same: keep water off your tenants, stock and customers. Many commercial roof leaks start around rooftop HVAC units and at drains nobody has cleaned, so we check both when we assess your roof.
What goes wrong
Problems we find on Paramus commercial roofs
-
Two roofs already in place
When a building has two roofs and the second one fails, the next job is a full tear-off, and the budget needs to reflect that.
-
HVAC traffic
Every service call is a chance for a dropped panel or a dragged toolbox to puncture the membrane. Walk pads fix most of it.
-
Ponding water
Decks that have settled lose their slope and hold water. Tapered insulation puts the slope back.
-
Loose edge metal
Highway corridors are open and windy. Most wind damage starts at the perimeter.
-
Signs and tenant fit-outs
Every new sign bracket, conduit and vent is a hole someone has to flash properly.
Repair and maintenance
Commercial roof repair and maintenance in Paramus
A stained ceiling tile over a sales floor is where a leak ends, not where it starts. On a Paramus commercial roof we begin where the water shows inside, then work uphill to the seams, flashing, drains and penetrations around it, with core cuts and moisture readings when the source is not obvious.
We match your existing membrane, TPO with TPO and PVC with PVC, so the repair bonds and holds. Every permanent repair comes with a minimum 2-year workmanship warranty on the repaired area, in writing, and some repairs get a longer warranty, depending on the age and condition of the roof. Temporary dry-ins and emergency patches are not covered.
Commercial roof maintenance on a Paramus building catches small problems early. Every maintenance plan starts with an inspection. From there, the work list, and how often it is done, depends on the condition of the roof and on what you or your property manager request, from clearing drains and scuppers to checking seams and re-securing edge metal. See commercial roof repair and, for an active leak, emergency roof repair.

Replacement, recover and coatings
Replace, recover or coat your Paramus flat roof
When patching stops paying off, a new roof fixes the leaks and the drainage, insulation and edge details behind them. How many roofs are already on the building, and whether the insulation is dry, decide which option fits:
- Recover: a new membrane over one existing roof with dry insulation and a sound deck. Lower cost and less disruption.
- Tear-off and replace: everything comes off to the deck. This is the fix for wet insulation, two existing roofs, deck damage or drainage that needs new slope.
- Roof coating: a silicone, acrylic or aluminum coating over a commercial flat roof that is still sound and dry, after any repairs are done.
Every new commercial roof we install in Paramus gets new flashing at each curb, pipe, wall and drain, plus new edge metal. Your business stays open while we work.
A commercial roof replacement or recover from ProTech carries a 5-year workmanship warranty, plus a manufacturer system warranty of 15 to 30 years where the roof qualifies, depending on the membrane and how it is installed. Every coating job carries our 5-year workmanship warranty, and where the roof qualifies, the coating maker adds a warranty of 10, 15 or 20 years, depending on the coating system and how thick it goes on. See commercial roof replacement and commercial roof coatings.

Homes and businesses
One Paramus roofer for the whole property
Twelve years on North Jersey roofs, more than 3,000 projects, and a written warranty behind every permanent repair and new roof. We work on homes and commercial buildings, so one roofer can handle the flat roof, shingled sections, skylights, gutters and chimney flashing on the same Paramus property.
- Straight answers. If a repair will do, we recommend a repair, and you see the photos that led us there.
- Craftsmanship. Clean seams, tightly flashed curbs and walls, edge metal fastened down: every detail is built to the manufacturer’s specifications, and that is what keeps your membrane warranty intact.

Questions
Commercial roofing questions from Paramus owners and tenants
Our commercial roof in Paramus is leaking. Can you fix it?
Yes. We repair seams, flashing, drains and punctures on TPO, PVC, EPDM and modified bitumen roofs. If water is coming in, call (201) 881-2431. We stop the water first, then document the cause and price the permanent repair for whoever is responsible under the lease.
Should we recover our roof or tear it off?
It depends on what is under the membrane. Dry insulation, a sound deck and only one existing roof may allow a recover. Otherwise it is a tear-off. We check with core cuts and a moisture survey where needed.
Do you offer a maintenance plan for our Paramus building?
Yes. Every commercial roof maintenance plan starts with an inspection. The tasks and their frequency follow the condition of the roof and your requests, and you get a photo report you can forward to the owner.
Can a roof coating add years to our commercial flat roof?
It can, if the roof is still sound and dry. A coating will not fix wet insulation, failed seams or a roof that holds water, so we inspect first and tell you straight whether to coat, repair or replace.
Can you work on our roof while the store stays open?
Yes, that is the norm. We phase the work around tenants, deliveries and store hours, keep entrances safe and clean up every day.
What warranties come with commercial roof work?
On a commercial roof replacement or recover, ProTech covers the workmanship for 5 years, and where the roof qualifies, the manufacturer system warranty runs 15 to 30 years, depending on the membrane and how it is installed. Permanent repairs carry a minimum 2-year workmanship warranty on the repaired area, in writing, longer on some repairs depending on the age and condition of the roof. Temporary dry-ins and emergency patches are not covered. Every coating job carries our 5-year workmanship warranty. Your proposal names the exact warranty.
