Low-slope and flat commercial roofs are a different trade from shingles, and Ridgeway does both. Storefronts, shops, churches, halls and light industrial — stripped, insulated and re-membraned while the building keeps operating.
A pitched roof sheds water whether or not the detail is perfect. A flat roof holds it, so every seam, every curb, every drain and every penetration has to be right. That is why a flat roof that has been patched five times usually needs replacing rather than a sixth patch.
Nobody can close for a week. Work gets sequenced so the building stays usable, the tear-off area is kept to what can be dried in the same day, and the lot is clean at the end of every shift. Rooftop HVAC gets curbed and flashed properly rather than caulked back down.
Single-ply membrane over the appropriate insulation, with the perimeter, the curbs and the drains detailed as their own jobs. Where the existing roof is sound enough, a recover saves the cost and the disruption of a full tear-off — and where it is not, you will be told that.
Buildings with a congregation or a season around them get scheduled around it. A lot of Ridgeway's commercial work looks like this: a long run of roof, a tight window, and people who need the building back.
A photo of the problem tells Terry more than anything you could write.
These come up on the same buildings, and it is the same crew either way.
Tear the old roof off, look at what is underneath, and put a new one on that is built to sit there for decades.

Standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal on houses, churches, barns and commercial buildings. Fifty years instead of twenty.
Metal Roofing
A stain on the ceiling, shingles in the yard after a storm, a valley that has been patched twice. The fix before it becomes a replacement.
