Commercial Roofing in Chattanooga, TN
Low-Slope and Metal Roofing for Chattanooga Industrial, Office, Retail and Multi-Family Buildings
Commercial Roofing for Chattanooga and Surrounding Areas
McGuire Roofing serves Chattanooga and surrounding areas from our Knoxville office, about two hours southwest on I-75. We already work throughout the I-75 corridor between Knoxville and Chattanooga, so Hamilton County projects fit naturally into our commercial schedule.
Chattanooga has a long manufacturing and industrial history, and that shows on its roofs: large metal and low-slope roofs on plants and warehouses, older masonry buildings downtown and on the Southside that have been converted to offices, restaurants and apartments, plus newer retail, medical and multi-family buildings in Hamilton Place, East Brainerd and along the riverfront. Each one calls for a different approach, from a simple seam repair to a full tear-off.

What Chattanooga Weather Does to Commercial Roofs
Chattanooga sits in a river valley surrounded by ridges and gets plenty of rain, along with hot, humid summers and strong spring and summer thunderstorms that can bring hail and high wind. Heavy rain is the big test for low-slope roofs: ponding water, clogged drains and failed flashings at walls and curbs are the usual leak sources we look for. Older industrial metal roofs also tend to show rust at fasteners and seams, which can often be repaired or restored with a coating before a full replacement is needed.
Commercial Roofing Systems We Install in Chattanooga
Johns Manville is our main commercial manufacturer, including JM PVC, EPDM, TPO and modified bitumen. We are Duro-Last certified, mainly for prefabricated PVC, and GAF commercial certified as a third option. We recommend the system that fits the building, its use and its budget.
TPO
Heat-welded, reflective single-ply membrane for offices, retail and warehouses with large flat roofs.
PVC
PVC membranes, including Duro-Last prefabricated systems, for restaurants and roofs with grease exhaust or heavy rooftop equipment.
EPDM
Durable rubber membrane, installed new or repaired on the many existing EPDM roofs across the region.
Modified Bitumen
Multi-ply asphalt-based roofing for older downtown buildings and roofs with regular foot traffic.
Commercial Metal
R-panel and standing seam metal roofs for warehouses, shops, churches and mixed-use buildings.
Roof Coatings
Restoration coatings that can extend the life of a qualifying roof without a full tear-off.
Commercial Roof Repair, Replacement and Restoration
- Inspections and leak repair – We find the source, repair membrane, flashing, curbs and penetrations, and send photos of the work.
- Replacement – Full tear-off or, where the existing roof and local codes allow, a recover system. We pull the permits the local jurisdiction requires.
- Restoration – Coatings for roofs that are still sound underneath, after an inspection confirms they are good candidates.
- Drainage and gutters – Drains, scuppers and commercial gutters sized for heavy rain.
- Maintenance programs – Scheduled inspections, drain and debris clearing, minor repairs and photo reports. See our commercial roof maintenance programs.
- Safety – Work is planned around occupants and customers, following our roofing safety practices.

Chattanooga Commercial Roofing FAQ
Do you serve commercial buildings in Chattanooga?
Yes. We serve Chattanooga and surrounding areas from our Knoxville office, about two hours away on I-75.
Can you repair or restore an older industrial metal roof?
Often, yes. We inspect the panels, fasteners and seams first. Depending on condition, we recommend repairs, a restoration coating, a recover or a new metal or single-ply roof.
Can my existing commercial roof be coated instead of replaced?
Sometimes. A coating can work when the roof is still sound and dry underneath. We inspect the roof first and tell you whether restoration or replacement makes more sense.
Is your phone answered after hours?
Yes. Our phone is answered 24/7 at (865) 338-7663. After a storm we help secure the roof with temporary repairs or tarping when it is safe, then plan the permanent repair.
Can you manage several buildings for one owner or property manager?
Yes. Multi-site clients can run every building through one office, with one phone number, one set of records and photo reports for each site. Existing clients can use our Client Portal.
Is financing available for a commercial roof?
