Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection

A commercial roof inspection in Advance starts on the roof, not on a clipboard. Our crew walks the full surface and checks membrane seams, flashing at walls and curbs, edge metal, penetrations, drains and scuppers, and any low spots holding water. We look for the specific failure signs common on Advance commercial properties, including bruised or punctured membrane from hail, lifted seams from open sky wind exposure, and flashing that has aged past its useful life. Every finding is documented with photos so you have a record for budgeting or for an insurance claim. A thorough inspection is how small commercial roof problems in Advance stay small instead of becoming expensive tear offs.

Water that enters a Advance commercial roof does not exit the story when the leak gets fixed. It stays in the insulation, cutting R value, adding structural load, and corroding deck fasteners from above. A roof can be watertight and still be wet inside. That is why Boone County owners who fixed the leak but skipped the moisture survey often pay for the same water twice.

Metal roofed commercial buildings across Boone County get their own service line at Advance Commercial Roofing: fastener replacement on aging screw down systems, seam service on standing seam, rust treatment, and recoats that extend service life. Advance shops and warehouses with metal overhead need a contractor who treats it as its own trade, because it is.

Advance Commercial Roofing answers Advance commercial roofing questions straight, including the ones that cost us work: whether the coating salesman was right, whether the roof has years left, whether the repair beats the replacement. Call (317) 342-7736 for a second opinion with data behind it. Boone County owners who verify before they spend tend to spend a lot less.

About Us

Local Expertise, Real Results

We would rather tell you the roof has four years left than sell you one you do not need.

One contractor, one scope, one accountable phone number. Advance Commercial Roofing carries Advance commercial projects from the first walk to the registered warranty, so nothing lands between subcontractors.

Advance Commercial Roofing serves Advance and the surrounding Boone County commercial market, including Jamestown, Thorntown, Lebanon, Zionsville, Whitestown, and Brownsburg. Founded in 2018 by Aaron Christy, who has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6, the company has spent years focused on commercial roofing across central Indiana. Our crews are licensed and insured under Indiana license RC21100059, and they work locally, which matters when a small retail block on North Main Street or a grain building outside Advance needs eyes on the roof quickly. When you call about a commercial roof in Advance, you get people who know Boone County buildings, not a call center pushing paperwork.

The way we work in Advance is straightforward. A crew gets on the roof, walks the membrane, checks seams, flashing, edge metal, drains, and penetrations, and photographs anything that looks like storm damage or age fatigue. You get a written estimate with a clear scope, plain line items, and honest notes on whether repair or replacement makes more sense for that specific building. On the work itself, we hold the crew to clean job sites, correct detailing at seams and terminations, and protecting the property below. No invented certifications, no brochure talk, just commercial roofing done the way it should be done.

Our Promise

We make three commitments to Advance property managers. First, a free on site inspection of the commercial roof before any work is proposed, with photo documentation you can keep. Second, an honest written estimate with a defined scope and transparent line items added later. Third, clean workmanship on every commercial roof we touch, backed by a workmanship warranty on the labor we perform in addition to the standard manufacturer coverage that applies to the materials installed.

Why Advance Chooses Us

The Case for Advance Commercial Roofing in Advance

Serving Advance and Boone County with quality materials, thorough inspections, and transparent pricing.

Storm And Hail Response

Central Indiana takes hail and straight line wind hits every spring, and Advance is not sheltered from any of it. When storms roll through Boone County, we prioritize commercial roofs with active leaks or visible membrane damage and get an inspector on site promptly. You get photos, a written scope, and a clear next step.

Advance Buildings We Know

From low slope masonry blocks on Main Street to metal panel agricultural buildings on the edges of town, the commercial stock in Advance has its own quirks. We have worked on the same building types across Boone County and know where these roofs typically fail first. That means a faster read on repair versus replacement.

Full Commercial Scope

We handle the whole commercial roofing arc under one roof: inspection, repair, emergency repair, full replacement, and metal roofing install. You are not getting handed off between vendors mid project. One crew, one scope, one point of contact from the first walk to the final cleanup.

Insurance Documentation Done Right

When a commercial roof in Advance takes storm damage, the claim is only as strong as the documentation. We photograph impact points, seam damage, flashing failures, and interior signs, then package it in a format your adjuster can actually use. That gives your claim a fair shot at reflecting the real condition of the roof.

Our Process

What Happens on Every Advance Roof Project

Step one is the inspection and assessment. A crew comes out to your Advance property, walks the commercial roof, and documents the current condition with photos, including any storm damage, ponding areas, seam separation, or flashing issues. We note the roof system, approximate age, and where it stands against expected service life. Before anyone talks about work, you get a clear picture of what is actually happening up there. That gives you a real basis for deciding on repair, targeted replacement, or a full tear off on your Advance commercial building.

Step two is the estimate and, when it applies, the insurance side. You get an honest written estimate with a defined scope, materials, and pricing you can actually read. If the damage on your Advance commercial roof looks storm related, we document it properly so you can file with your insurance carrier, and we are willing to meet the adjuster on the roof to walk the findings. works with your insurance carrier and we do not name drop carriers. The claim is between you and your insurer, and we support it with evidence.

Step three is the work itself. Once the scope is approved, we schedule the project around your Advance building's operations as much as possible, stage materials to keep the property usable, and protect landscaping, entrances, and interior spaces from debris. The crew installs to the specified scope, details seams and flashing carefully, and cleans the site daily. At the end, we do a final walkthrough with you, review what was completed, and remove all job site debris. You get a finished commercial roof and a paper trail.

Free Inspection With Photos

We inspect the commercial roof at no cost and photograph the findings. You get a documented record of seam condition, flashing, drains, and any storm or age damage. That report is yours to keep whether you hire us or not.

Honest Written Estimate

Every estimate is written, scoped, and priced up front for your Advance property. Line items are plain, materials are named, and the work included is defined. If something changes mid project, you hear about it before the invoice, not after.

Insurance Documentation Support

For storm damage claims, we package photos, measurements, and damage notes in a format your insurance carrier can work with. We can walk the roof with your adjuster if it helps. works with your insurance carrier, and the claim decision stays between you and your insurer.

Clean Work And Walkthrough

The crew protects the property, keeps the site tidy, and hauls debris off daily. At completion, we do a final walkthrough with you to confirm the scope was met. Any punch list items get closed out before we call the job done.

Common Causes

What we see most often on Advance commercial roofs

Advance property managers typically call us about these scenarios.

Chalking and Shrinkage on an Older Roof

White TPO and PVC chalk as the surface weathers, and a chalky membrane is harder to weld to, which matters on the day somebody needs to make a repair. EPDM fails the other direction: the sheet shrinks over the years and pulls flashings down off the parapet and away from the corners.

Ice Locking Up the Drain Sump

Through a Central Indiana winter the temperature crosses freezing and comes back on an ordinary day, and the drain sump is where that shows up. Meltwater runs to the drain, refreezes in the sump overnight, and the plug that forms holds the next melt on the roof instead of taking it away. Ice that moves with the temperature works on the clamping ring and the flashing sheet around the drain.

Seams Letting Go on a Taped EPDM Roof

EPDM is a thermoset rubber, so its laps are taped or adhered rather than heat welded the way TPO and PVC are. The adhesive is what ages, and it usually gives up first at T joints where three plies stack on top of each other. A lap rebuilt while it is still just a lap is a maintenance line item. The same lap found two years later is an insulation replacement.

Ponding Water and Drainage Failure

Water still standing 48 hours after rain accelerates membrane aging, voids portions of some warranties, and finds every seam defect on an Advance low slope roof. Clogged drains and crushed insulation are the usual causes. Advance Commercial Roofing clears the drainage path, corrects slope with tapered insulation where needed, and documents conditions for the warranty file.

Drains and Scuppers That Quit Draining

Strainer domes go missing, leaf litter packs the sump, and a scupper through the parapet plugs with whatever blew up there over the winter. Nobody notices until the low areas hold water or it starts running over the parapet instead of through it. Twice a year, spring and fall, keeps an Advance roof out of that situation for less than the cost of one repair.

Hail Bruising on a Single Ply Roof

On single ply, hail fractures the reinforcing scrim under the surface without leaving an obvious hole, and the split shows up a season or two later. Whether there is a cover board under the membrane changes how well the roof took the hit. Advance Commercial Roofing documents impacts area by area with photographs and core cuts so an Advance building owner has a written record while the storm date is still recent.

Common Questions

FAQ for Advance Facility Teams

Straight answers to the questions Advance property managers ask most.

Typically, we schedule Advance inspections promptly and prioritize buildings with active leaks or fresh storm damage over routine assessments. After a hail or wind event in Boone County, call volume spikes, so getting on the schedule early matters. We will give you a realistic window when you call rather than a promise we cannot keep. Once we are on site, you get a full walkthrough and photo documentation. Call to get your Advance property on the inspection schedule.
It depends on the roof system, square footage, access, and whether you are looking at repair or full replacement. Most Advance commercial repairs run in the low thousands for targeted work, while full replacements on typical Main Street or agricultural buildings can range widely based on membrane type, insulation, and edge detailing. Metal systems generally cost more up front and last longer. The only honest number is the one on your written estimate, which comes from the free inspection. Schedule the inspection to get real pricing.
It depends on your policy and the nature of the damage. Typically, sudden storm damage from hail or high wind is a covered loss subject to your deductible, while age related wear, ponding damage from long standing drainage issues, or deferred maintenance is not. Your insurance carrier makes that call based on the evidence. We document the damage with photos and measurements to support your claim, works with your insurance carrier. File the claim yourself and share our documentation with your adjuster.
It depends on the age, the extent of damage, and how much of the field is still sound. Typically, isolated seam failures, punctures, or flashing issues on a roof with useful life left are repair candidates. Widespread membrane fatigue, saturated insulation, repeated leaks in multiple areas, or a system already past expected service life usually point to replacement. The inspection tells you which side of that line your roof is on. Book a free inspection to get a straight answer.
In Advance, our inspection covers the full roof surface, membrane condition, seam integrity, flashing at walls and curbs, edge metal, drains and scuppers, penetrations, and any visible signs of storm impact or age fatigue. We photograph findings and note problem areas by location. You get a written summary you can use for budgeting, planning, or an insurance claim. Nothing about the inspection is a sales pitch, it is a factual condition report. Schedule yours at no cost.
It depends on scope, weather, and building size. Most Advance commercial repairs are completed in a day or two once materials are on site. Full replacements on typical Main Street storefronts or mid sized agricultural buildings usually run several days to a couple of weeks, weather permitting. Metal installs and larger institutional roofs can take longer. We give you a realistic schedule in the written estimate and update you if weather in Boone County shifts the timeline.
Two things apply. Our workmanship is backed by a workmanship warranty covering the labor and installation details we perform. The roofing materials themselves carry the standard manufacturer warranty that comes with the product line specified in your scope. Both are spelled out in writing on your estimate and final paperwork so nothing is vague. We do not invent extended coverages or make guarantees beyond what is actually documented. Ask us to walk through the specifics during the estimate review.
In Advance, start with safety and documentation. Walk the interior for ceiling stains, active drips, or displaced ceiling tiles and photograph anything you find, then check the exterior for downed edge metal, debris, or visible damage from ground level. Do not climb the roof yourself. Call for an inspection so the roof can be assessed properly and any hail or wind damage documented while it is fresh. That record supports your insurance claim and gets a repair scope moving.
Indiana Climate

Indiana Weather Affects Commercial Roofs Year Round

Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Advance property managers deal with spring hail and severe thunderstorms, summer UV exposure, fall wind storms, and winter freeze thaw cycles. Understanding these patterns is how we plan maintenance, repairs, and replacement work.

Hail Bruising Membrane

Advance sits in the same central Indiana hail corridor that produced the one inch stones reported just east northeast of town in March 2024. Hail bruises single ply membrane and cracks aged coatings, and the damage often does not leak until months later. When called in, we map every impact with photos and mark the areas that need patching or replacement.

Wind Lifting Seams And Edges

With flat farmland around Advance and little in the way of wind shielding, commercial roofs here take full uplift on every storm. That pressure finds weak seams and loose edge metal first, then peels membrane back from the perimeter. Our crew re terminates the edge, reseals affected seams, and checks the fastening pattern across the field.

Ponding After Heavy Rain

Jackson Township is flat, and low slope commercial roofs in town drain slowly when drains or scuppers clog. Standing water accelerates membrane breakdown, stresses seams, and adds structural load. We clear drains, correct slope issues where feasible, and reinforce or replace the affected sections so water moves off the roof.

Aging Flat And Low-Slope Systems

A large share of Advance commercial roofs were installed between the 1970s and 2000s, which puts many built up and early EPDM systems at or past expected service life. Seams get brittle, flashing pulls, and small failures multiply fast. We assess whether targeted repair still makes sense or whether a planned replacement is the smarter spend.

Material Guide

Choosing the Right Commercial Roof System in Advance

An honest breakdown of the three low slope systems we install most frequently.

TPO Membrane

The most common commercial roof in Advance is a low slope single ply membrane, usually TPO or EPDM, sometimes over an existing built up assembly. Owners choose it because it is cost effective per square foot, reasonably quick to install on Main Street storefronts and agricultural support buildings, and straightforward to repair at seams and penetrations. With honest installation details and regular inspection, a properly installed single ply roof gives a Boone County commercial property a solid, budget conscious service life.

Most specifiedReflective surface$$
EPDM Rubber

For Advance property managers who have already taken hail hits, a thicker mil membrane or a modified bitumen system is often worth the upgrade. The added thickness resists puncture from hail and foot traffic, holds seams better under wind uplift, and generally stretches the replacement interval. On buildings that see rooftop HVAC service, mechanical trades, or exposed positions with no wind shielding, spending a bit more up front tends to pay back over the life of the commercial roof.

Proven service lifeSimple repairs$$$
Standing Seam Metal

Standing seam metal roofing is the long life option for Advance commercial and agricultural buildings, and it fits the rural building stock naturally. Expected service life runs well past most single ply systems, wind performance is strong when detailed correctly at the seams and edges, and maintenance is minimal. The tradeoff is higher up front cost and the need for precise flashing at penetrations. For owners planning to hold a building long term, metal often makes the math work.

The oldest section of Advance centered on N Main Street and Wall Street, platted in 1872, with most structures dating to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. View Downtown Core / Main Street District commercial roofing details →
Wall Street is one of the few named streets in Advance and runs through a residential stretch that developed alongside the town's original plat. Homes along this corridor are predominantly pre-1940 single family structures, consistent with the town's overall housing age profile where over 40% of units predate 1940. These homes commonly feature full basements with original galvanized supply lines and clay tile drain systems that are susceptible to root intrusion and collapse, and the flat surrounding terrain,formerly farmland owned by the Wall family until 1971,offers limited natural drainage relief during heavy rain events. View Wall Street Residential Corridor commercial roofing details →
The Cherry Street area, referenced in town address records, represents a mid block residential pocket of Advance's compact 0.62-square mile footprint. Housing here reflects the town's dominant pre-1940 construction era with characteristic wood frame construction and full or partial basements that are common in Indiana small town builds of that period. View Cherry Street Neighborhood commercial roofing details →
The southern approach to Advance along SR 75 near the I-74 interchange represents the more accessible edge of town and the area closest to Granville Wells Elementary School. Properties along this corridor tend to include a mix of older farmstead era homes and a small number of mid century structures built after WWII, with copper plumbing more common in post-1950 builds but galvanized pipe still prevalent in pre war homes.
