We source PVC from Sika®, the highest quality PVC roofing manufacturer, and offer available colors including white, gray and tan.

Although installing PVC roof panels is generally a cost-effective solution for many businesses, inclement weather and other unforeseen events can cause extensive damage. If you’ve recently experienced inclement weather, or you have an existing roofing system that’s approaching its 30-year lifespan, we recommend calling us for a comprehensive inspection. With over 50 years of experience, we have seen it all, and can help you find the most cost-effective solution for your situation. To schedule PVC membrane repairs or an inspection, contact us today.
These steps, combined with a tailored maintenance guide, will help maximize your roof’s lifespan.
As with any roofing system, roofing damage can sometimes arise after periods of extreme weather or natural disasters. The most common signs of flat roof damage include:
PVC roofing is a popular choice for flat and low-slope roofs because of its durability and high energy efficiency. In fact, the average lifespan of a PVC roof is around 30 years. Summit Commercial Roofing offers a variety of PVC roof systems in many applications and thicknesses to meet your specific needs. Our replacement services include tear-offs and re-roofs. Call us today to see which replacement option is best for your needs and budget.
Though metal is a reliable commercial roofing material, it tends to rust and become problematic over time. When this happens, the more cost-effective option is typically to retrofit the roof — and PVC is a perfect material for doing so. Metal retrofits include installing a single-ply PVC roofing system over the existing metal roof, helping ensure the roof remains watertight while enhancing energy efficiency.
At Summit, we'll help you select the best roofing system for your building based on your specific needs and budget. To help you make an informed decision, see our comparison chart for highlights on the key differences and benefits of TPO and PVC roofing. Both represent ideal roofing options.

PVC roofing systems are built to last — and their longevity is primarily due to the heat-welded installation process, which creates strong, watertight seams, thereby minimizing the risk of leaks. When cared for properly, PVC roofs can last for up to 30 years, representing a long-term investment. At Summit, our PVC installation expertise is only matched by our fast response times and competitive pricing.
PVC roofing is highly resistant to water, fire, chemicals, and harsh weather conditions making it a reliable and trust worthy roofing option. PVC is a long term roofing solution that can last for up to 30 years when installed and properly maintained.
Thanks to its highly reflective surface, PVC roofing provides a noticeable reduction in cooling costs, keeping your building cooler in the summer months. Many PVC roofing options also feature ENERGY STAR® ratings, a further testament to their efficiency and cost savings.
PVC roofing is not just about protecting your building; it’s also about protecting the planet. These roofing systems are recyclable at the end of their lifespan, contributing to a circular economy and reducing the overall environmental footprint of your commercial property.
PVC roofing features hot-air welded seams, which provide a watertight seal unmatched by other roofing materials. This leak-proof quality makes it an ideal choice for buildings in wet climates and helps prevent slow progressing long term damage.
Designed to withstand the toughest conditions, PVC roofing materials are incredibly resistant to tears, punctures, and rips. This resilience is particularly beneficial in areas prone to severe weather events like Southeast Michigan storms, or where rooftop traffic is high.
Despite the initial investment, the long-term savings on energy bills, maintenance, and repairs make PVC roofing a cost-effective choice for commercial properties. The durability and lifespan often result in a lower total cost of ownership compared to other roofing options.
