Comprehensive roofing services

Swordsmen Roofing offers full-service roofing for commercial properties and homes. Our work ranges from small repairs to full replacements. Services are scaled to the client's needs with an emphasis on safety and efficient scheduling.

We install and repair systems including TPO, metal, asphalt, and composite roofs. For each solution we provide life-cycle cost estimates, energy savings projections, and maintenance plans that extend system life.

Full replacements restore structural integrity and improve energy performance. We remove old materials safely, inspect the deck, and install the chosen system with precise flashing and fasteners. The result is a roof built to last and resist weather extremes.

We manage permits, inspections, and final closeout documentation. Clients receive maintenance instructions and warranty packets that spell out coverage and care tips to protect their investment long term.

Quick response repair teams address leaks, storm damage, and punctures to minimize interior damage. Our crews stabilize the roof, perform temporary repairs if needed, and follow with permanent fixes that restore warranty compliance.

We document damage thoroughly for insurance claims. Our teams work directly with adjusters when allowed, providing clear scopes and photographic records to support a fair claim settlement.

Planned maintenance extends roof life and reduces long-term costs. Our programs include scheduled inspections, membrane cleaning, sealant renewal, and minor repairs before they escalate. Predictable service avoids emergency expenses and improves budget planning.

Rejuvenation treatments can restore some aged systems without full replacement. These options are evaluated with careful testing and provide a cost-effective way to defer capital outlays while maintaining protection.

Materials and high-performance systems
System Benefits Typical Life
TPO Reflective, energy-saving, cost-effective 20-30 years
Metal Durable, long service life, high wind resistance 30-50 years
Asphalt Lower cost, easy to repair, versatile 15-25 years
Composite Architectural look, impact resistance 20-40 years

Choosing the right material starts with the building's function and budget. We recommend systems that balance performance and lifespan, including Hail-Resistant Roofing (Class 4 / FM 4473) options for severe hail zones. Our material choices are backed by manufacturer testing and field experience.

Reflective roof technologies reduce cooling loads for warehouses and retail centers. These systems often return savings in energy costs, making the initial investment pay off over time through lower utility bills and improved occupant comfort.

TPO offers a balance of cost and performance. It reflects sunlight, lowering roof surface temperature and cooling loads. Installations include mechanical fastening or fully adhered methods to suit roof slope and wind uplift requirements.

We detail flashings and penetrations to maintain watertight integrity. Regular maintenance and correct fastener patterns are critical for long service. A properly installed TPO roof delivers reliable, energy-efficient performance.

Metal roofs provide exceptional life span and resistance to high winds and hail. They are ideal for buildings needing low-maintenance long-term protection. Proper underlayment and seam techniques prevent corrosion and thermal movement issues.

For design-driven properties, our Brava Preferred status and architectural metal options offer durable, attractive solutions. Metal can be specified to meet strict performance standards and provide strong warranty coverage.

Asphalt and composite systems serve both residential and commercial needs where cost and ease of repair are important. These roofs can be quick to install and simple to service for predictable upkeep schedules.

We offer high-grade shingles and installed systems that meet local code and manufacturer guidance. For aesthetic projects, composite solutions provide architectural appeal while delivering impact resistance and reliable protection.

Warranties, certifications, and compliance

Swordsmen Roofing maintains strong manufacturer partnerships and certifications. As a TAMKO Diamond Contractor, we provide exclusive 25-year workmanship warranties and wind coverage up to 160 mph where applicable. These commitments add measurable value and peace of mind to every project.

We also offer systems that meet Hail-Resistant Roofing (Class 4 / FM 4473) standards. Our certified status helps clients access extended materials warranties and manufacturer-backed guarantees.

Warranties cover materials and workmanship differently. Manufacturer warranties protect product defects, while our workmanship warranty covers installation issues. We explain limits, exclusions, and maintenance requirements so owners know how to keep warranties valid.

When possible, we secure enhanced coverage through certified installer programs. These agreements add financial protection and ensure repairs are made under approved processes for consistent results.

Our partnerships with top manufacturers mean access to quality materials and training. Being a TAMKO Diamond Contractor and a Brava Preferred installer reflects ongoing training and verified installations. Certification shows our promise to follow strict installation standards.

These programs also streamline warranty claims and provide owners with a clear path to resolution when issues arise. Certification is an extra layer of trust for your roofing investment.

We ensure projects follow local codes, permit requirements, and safety regulations. Our documentation includes inspection reports, installation photos, and final closeout packages that meet municipal or insurer needs. This keeps projects moving and avoids costly rework.

Compliance reduces liability and protects value. Owners receive clear records that support financing, insurance, and future maintenance planning for the entire roof life cycle.

Maintenance programs and storm recovery

Preventive maintenance is a cost-effective way to protect a roof. Our planned programs include inspections, sealant renewal, and small repairs before they escalate. This saves money and extends service life while protecting interior assets.

In storm events we provide rapid assessments and emergency tarping if needed. We document damage to help with insurance claims and provide clear scopes to restore the roof quickly and correctly.

Maintenance plans are scheduled annually or semi-annually based on building exposure. We inspect flashings, drains, membranes, and fasteners, then provide a report with recommended actions. These small investments reduce the chance of larger, emergency repairs.

Clients receive reminders and a maintenance log for each facility. This helps owners budget for long-term care and keeps warranties in good standing through documented upkeep.

When hail or wind damages a roof, quick action matters. We perform fast damage assessments and temporary protection to prevent interior damage. Our reports include photos and recommendations for repair or replacement to support timely insurance processing.

Our crews prioritize safety, debris removal, and secure work areas. We coordinate with adjusters when permitted and provide clear scopes that follow manufacturer repair methods to protect warranty coverage.

  • Inspect flashing and seams for gaps or damage.
  • Clear drains and scuppers to prevent ponding water.
  • Seal penetrations and roof-mounted equipment properly.
  • Replace failed fasteners and repair membrane tears.
  • Document findings and recommended next steps.

Regular checklists keep buildings safe and reduce lifecycle costs. Our teams train maintenance staff and provide simple, clear guidance that helps non-technical facility managers follow best practices.
