Our goal is to provide you with a high-quality roofing system that will protect your property for years without unexpected delays or added costs.
Each commercial property in Pittsburgh presents its own unique set of challenges, and at Great Lakes Commercial Roofing, we understand that a generic roofing solution simply won’t meet those needs. From the moment the project begins, we work closely with architects, engineers, and business owners to ensure that the roofing system is meticulously designed and engineered to suit the specific requirements of the building. Our collaborative process ensures that the final result is a roof that integrates seamlessly with the overall construction while offering the protection, durability, and efficiency your property demands.

Benefits of Choosing a Professional for Your New Construction Roofing
In the world of new construction roofing, the roof is a foundational element of a building’s structure, providing protection against the elements and contributing to overall safety and energy efficiency. The decision to hire professionals for roof installation ensures that your new building is equipped with a high-quality, reliable roofing system that won’t fail under pressure. A roof that’s installed improperly can result in leaks, poor insulation, increased utility bills, and even dangerous structural issues.
Roofing installation is more than just laying down materials, it’s about understanding the building’s architecture and working within its framework to ensure long-term durability. From choosing the right materials to following strict construction guidelines, professionals bring a wealth of knowledge and craftsmanship that guarantees a job well done.
In any construction project, the speed of completion is important, but it should never come at the expense of quality. Rushed roof installations often lead to significant issues later, such as premature system failures and costly maintenance. For property owners, this can mean more than just commercial roof repair costs, it can affect your reputation, lead to tenant dissatisfaction, and even create downtime that impacts your revenue.
Professional roofers know that it’s not just about getting the job done quickly; it’s about ensuring that the roof will function optimally for years. Every step, from selecting the right materials to conducting a final inspection, is carried out with meticulous attention to detail. With the right installation, you’re investing in a system that reduces energy costs, improves your property’s value, and ensures operational efficiency, all while providing the peace of mind that comes with knowing your roof is built to last.

We begin by reviewing architectural plans in depth, working side-by-side with your project to create a roofing plan that fits both the structural goals and the unique demands of your property.
Our expert new construction roofing crews, not third-party contractors, handle every phase of the installation with technical accuracy. From prepping the deck to installing insulation and sealing every edge, we take the guesswork out of quality control.

Smart Roofing Choices
The right roofing system not only shields your business from the elements but also ensures durability and efficiency, making it a critical decision for new construction roofing projects in Pittsburgh. By choosing high-quality materials from the start, you can avoid expensive repairs, minimize maintenance requirements, and enjoy lasting performance that protects both your building and your business operations.
When selecting roofing materials, factors like durability, cost-effectiveness, and energy efficiency are paramount. Whether your project demands a sleek, low-maintenance solution or something designed to provide superior strength and protection, selecting the appropriate material will align with both your building’s specific needs and your long-term financial goals. We work closely with property owners to understand each unique project and provide expert recommendations.
TPO & PVC Membranes
These durable, low-maintenance options are perfect for flat-roof properties needing protection from leaks, chemical exposure, and rising energy costs. Their reflective surfaces help control indoor temperatures and reduce utility bills—especially critical in large, climate-sensitive buildings.
EPDM Rubber Roofing
A favorite for Pittsburgh business owners tired of constant repairs. EPDM is tough against snow, hail, and freeze-thaw cycles. It delivers long-term performance without frequent patchwork or disruptions.
Metal Roofing
When reliability is non-negotiable, metal is your answer. It’s fire-resistant, weatherproof, and lasts decades, making it an ideal choice for businesses that can’t afford downtime or structural surprises.
Modified Bitumen
This multi-ply system stands up to heavy equipment, foot traffic, and temperature swings. It’s a go-to for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and high-demand buildings.
Built-Up Roofing (BUR)
Tried-and-true for maximum defense. BUR systems offer thick, reinforced layers that keep water and damage out, giving peace of mind season after season.

Russell Jenkins
The guys from Great Lakes commercial roofing LLC were extremely professional. Kenneth came out and was extremely informative and knowledgeable in regards to roofing.

E Frogwell
When it comes to a company that will get the job done right you have to go with Great Lakes Commercial Roofing. Zac is easy to work with and very knowledgeable about many different products and options. Don’t make the mistake I did and call a contractor that is mainly a residential roofer to look at your industrial roof unless you like wasting money
Tom Havacheck
Great company to work with! I have a building in Pennsylvania but live in another state. My roof was leaking and Zac was sent out and did the inspection on the roof. When he was at the building he called and sent me a link to live pictures
Jason Bakus
These guys are awsome. Great job from start to finish. Did our large commercial catering hall. Always available if we have a question or concern. Roof looks great and best of all. No more leeks. Defiantly recommend
Matthew DeLibero

Conrad Miler
Your dedication to quality and service have made working with you a pleasure!
Barb Goliad
I called Great Lakes Commercial Roofing to come check out my building. I had a company put silicone roof coating on it 5 years ago and since day one it never stopped the leaking problems, the other company came out 5 times to “fix the problem” but never did. Zac came out and evaluated my problem and gave me a ton of information on the best solution to fix the problem.
