Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection

A commercial roof inspection in Frankton starts on the roof, not on a clipboard. Our crew walks the field of the membrane, checks seams and laps, inspects flashing at parapets and curbs, looks at drains and scuppers for ponding evidence, and pulls close photos of any hail bruising, wind lifting, blistering, or age related cracking. Rooftop equipment penetrations get a careful look because that's where problems on Frankton commercial buildings tend to start. Everything gets documented with photos and written notes so you have a real record of the roof's condition. This is how small problems on Frankton commercial roofs stay small instead of turning into interior damage, ruined insulation, and an expensive replacement conversation you weren't ready for.

I agree to be contacted by Frankton Commercial Roofing regarding my inquiry.

Every Frankton building owner inherits a roof history they did not write. Previous repairs of unknown quality, penetrations added by whichever trade came last, and warranty paperwork nobody can find. The roof works until the day it does not, and the file that should explain it is empty. That gap between what an owner knows and what the roof knows is where budgets go to die.

Warranty work gets the same crews and the same urgency as new installs at Frankton Commercial Roofing. Frankton owners with manufacturer coverage get repairs done to the approved details that keep coverage intact, and the annual inspections that the fine print quietly requires. Across Madison County, the cheapest inspection is the one that keeps a warranty enforceable.

When a Frankton building starts showing water, the clock is running on the insulation below. Frankton Commercial Roofing responds to active commercial leaks with interim protection first and investigation second, then documents everything for your file and your carrier. Call (765) 978-5086 for priority dispatch, or to put your building on the inspection calendar before it needs one.

About Us

Local Expertise, Real Results

Warranty paperwork gets registered and handed over, not left in a truck.

The most expensive commercial roof decision is the one made late. Frankton Commercial Roofing gives Frankton owners the early version: baseline inspections that establish condition, targeted repairs that extend service life, and replacement only when the math favors it.

Frankton Commercial Roofing serves Frankton commercial property managers with inspection, repair, and replacement work on flat, low slope, and metal commercial roofs. Our service area covers Frankton and the rest of Madison County, along with Anderson, Alexandria, Elwood, Lapel, Pendleton, and Chesterfield. Founder Aaron Christy started the company in 2018 and has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6 discussing storm response and roofing work across central Indiana. Our crews are local, licensed and insured under Indiana license RC21100059, and they work on Frankton commercial buildings often enough to know how the older downtown stock behaves. That familiarity matters when you're deciding between another patch and a full replacement.

The way we work in Frankton is simple and slow enough to be right. A crew lead walks the commercial roof, checks membrane seams, flashing, terminations, drains, and problem areas, then documents everything with photos before we quote a number. You get a written estimate with a clear scope, so you know what's included and what isn't, and we'll tell you plainly if a repair is smarter than a replacement. On the work itself, we focus on clean, correct installation and tidy job sites. No invented certifications, no brochure talk, just commercial roofing done the way it should be done.

Our Promise

Every Frankton property manager who calls Frankton Commercial Roofing gets three things. First, a free on site inspection of the commercial roof before we write anything up, with photos of what we find. Second, an honest written estimate with a clear scope and transparent line items added later. Third, clean workmanship on the roof itself, backed by a workmanship warranty on what we install and the standard manufacturer coverage that comes with the materials. That's the deal, and it doesn't change based on the size of the job.

Why Frankton Chooses Us

Why Frankton Boards Keep Us on File

Serving Frankton and Madison County with quality materials, thorough inspections, and transparent pricing.

Storm And Hail Response

Madison County has taken serious hail and wind events, including a storm that dropped hail measuring 3.4 inches near Frankton with gusts around 83 mph. That kind of weather bruises membrane and lifts seams on commercial roofs. We prioritize storm calls, document damage thoroughly, and get you a written scope you can act on.

Frankton Commercial Experience

We've worked on the kinds of buildings Frankton actually has, older masonry retail blocks along Sigler Street, institutional roofs, and light industrial metal structures. That means we know how 40 to 70 year old built up and modified bitumen systems fail. You get advice grounded in the real condition of your roof, not a template.

Full-Scope Commercial Roofing

From the first inspection through the final walkthrough, one company handles the whole job. Inspection, repair, emergency response, replacement, and metal roofing install are all in house services. That keeps communication clean and the scope consistent from the estimate to the last screw.

Insurance Documentation Done Right

When a Frankton commercial roof takes storm damage, the claim lives or dies on the documentation. We take detailed photos, note the failure modes, and provide a written scope your insurance carrier and adjuster can actually work from. You handle the claim relationship. We give you the evidence to support it.

Our Process

What Frankton Building Owners See Us Do

Step one is the on site inspection. A crew lead comes out to your Frankton commercial property, gets on the roof, and walks the whole field. Membrane condition, seam integrity, flashing at parapets and penetrations, drainage, and any signs of storm impact or age failure all get looked at and photographed. If there's rooftop equipment, we check the curbs and boots around it. You get a clear picture of the roof's real condition before anyone talks about scope or price.

Step two is the written estimate. After the inspection, we put together an honest scope with line items you can read, priced against what the roof actually needs. If storm damage is involved, we hand over the photo documentation and written findings so you can file with your insurance carrier and share materials with the adjuster. We don't works with your insurance carrier and we don't name drop them. In Frankton, the property manager runs the claim relationship, and we support it with clean evidence.

Step three is the work. Once the scope is approved and scheduling is set, our crew shows up on the agreed date and does the commercial roofing work with the property protected. Materials are staged carefully, debris is managed through the job, and access points stay clean so your tenants and staff aren't tripping over the project. When we're done, we walk the roof with you or your representative in Frankton, review what was installed, and clean the site before we leave.

Free Inspection With Photos

A crew lead walks your commercial roof, checks membrane, seams, flashing, and drains, and documents everything with photos. There's no charge and no obligation to move forward. You get a real look at the roof's condition.

Honest Written Estimate

After the inspection, you get a written estimate with a clear scope and line items you can read. No surprise add ons later. If repair makes more sense than replacement, we'll say so in Frankton or anywhere else we work.

Insurance Documentation

For storm damage claims, we provide detailed photos and written findings you can share with your insurance carrier and adjuster. We work with your carrier through you, not around you. We don't works with your insurance carrier.

Clean Workmanship And Walkthrough

The crew keeps the site organized during the job, protects the property, and cleans up before leaving. A final walkthrough covers what was installed and confirms the scope was met. Workmanship is backed by our warranty.

Common Causes

What we see most often on Frankton commercial roofs

Frankton property managers typically call us about these scenarios.

Edge Metal and Corner Uplift After Wind

Edge metal holds the perimeter down, and when it lets go the membrane behind it peels inward like a lid coming off. That is why corners and perimeters get tighter fastener and plate spacing than the field does, and why they are the first thing worth looking at after a blow. Frankton Commercial Roofing checks edge securement and the perimeter fastening pattern following a Frankton storm.

Wet Insulation Spreading Under the Membrane

The wet area under a low slope roof is almost always larger than the ceiling stain, because water gets past the membrane and travels sideways through the insulation until something stops it. An infrared scan does not see water. It sees heat, and wet board holds warmth longer after sunset, so it lights up at night. That tells Frankton Commercial Roofing where to look, and a core cut tells you whether it is wet.

Condensation That Reads Like a Leak

Drips with no rain in the forecast are usually not a roof leak. Warm humid air from inside the building reaches the cold underside of the deck, condenses, and runs, and it does that across a wide area instead of at one penetration. Buildings that run high interior humidity with no vapor retarder in the assembly do this every winter.

Punctures Along the Path to the Units

Map where the punctures are and they line up between the roof hatch and whatever equipment gets serviced. A self tapping screw dropped by a tech and then stepped on goes through a membrane without anyone noticing, and it does not leak where it went in. Walkway pads on the route people actually walk, plus a log of who went up and when, costs less than the third repair on the same area.

Storm and Wind Damage

Wind peels membrane at corners and perimeters where uplift is highest, and hail bruises single ply in ways that fail two winters later. Frankton Commercial Roofing documents damage to commercial carrier standards, separates storm damage from wear in writing, and supports the claim through adjuster review so Frankton building owners are not funding covered repairs out of pocket.

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.

Common Questions

Frankton Commercial Roofing Questions

Straight answers to the questions Frankton property managers ask most.

Typically, we schedule Frankton inspections promptly, and storm damage calls move to the front of the line because a compromised commercial roof gets worse the longer it sits. When you call, we'll set a time that works for your building's operations and confirm what to expect on site. For active leaks, we prioritize the visit and any emergency stabilization needed. We won't promise a specific arrival window we can't hold to. Call to get on the schedule and we'll be straight with you about timing.
It depends on the system, the size, and the scope. Most commercial roof repairs in Frankton fall in a wide range depending on whether you're patching a few seams or reworking flashing and edge metal, and full replacement pricing typically runs on a per square basis that varies with membrane type, insulation, and tear off requirements. We won't quote fake precision over the phone. The free on site inspection is what sets the real number, and the written estimate spells out exactly what's included. Schedule the inspection and you'll have a defensible price to work with.
It depends on your policy and the nature of the damage. Sudden storm and hail damage is usually covered by commercial property policies, while age related wear, ponding fatigue, or long term membrane failure typically isn't. Your deductible applies to the covered portion, and your insurance carrier makes the final call after their adjuster reviews the roof. We provide photo documentation and a written scope you can submit with your claim, but we don't works with your insurance carrier and we won't name drop them. Document the damage with photos and call to get an inspection on the books.
It depends on the age of the system, how widespread the damage is, and what the membrane and insulation are doing overall. If you have isolated seam failures, damaged flashing, or storm hits in a few areas on an otherwise sound roof, repair is usually the right move. If the membrane is 40 plus years old with widespread bruising, ponding damage, or wet insulation across large sections, replacement usually makes more financial sense over five to ten years. Our inspection report gives you the evidence to make that call honestly. Schedule a free inspection to see where your roof actually stands.
In Frankton, our inspection covers the full field of the commercial roof, membrane condition, seams and laps, flashing at parapets and curbs, drains and scuppers, edge metal, and every rooftop penetration around HVAC or vents. We look for hail bruising, wind uplift signs, ponding evidence, blisters, cracking, and any age related failure modes. Everything gets photographed and written up so you have a real record of the roof's condition. There's no charge and no obligation to move forward with work. Call to get the inspection scheduled.
Typically, a straightforward commercial roof repair in Frankton takes anywhere from part of a day to a few days depending on scope and access. Full replacement projects usually run one to three weeks for a small to mid sized building, though weather, tear off complexity, insulation replacement, and rooftop equipment can extend that. We schedule around your building's operations as much as possible and give you a realistic timeline in the written estimate before work starts. Schedule the inspection and we'll walk you through what your specific project would involve.
Our workmanship is covered by our own warranty on the installation itself, and the materials carry the standard manufacturer coverage that comes with the system installed. The specifics vary by product and scope, so we go over what applies to your project in writing before work starts, not after. We won't invent warranty terms we can't back up. If a manufacturer offers extended coverage on a particular system, we'll be clear about what qualifies. Ask during the estimate review and we'll walk you through it.
In Frankton, the first move is safety, keep people off the roof until it's been assessed by someone qualified. From the ground and any safe interior vantage points, document what you can see with photos, note the date and time of the storm, and check interior ceilings for fresh staining or active drips. Then call to get a commercial roof inspection on the schedule before minor damage turns into interior loss. We'll provide the photo documentation and written findings you'll need for your insurance carrier. Schedule the inspection as soon as the weather clears.
Indiana Climate

Indiana Weather Affects Commercial Roofs Year Round

Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Frankton 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 On Membrane

Frankton sits in an exposed part of Madison County, and hail here has measured over three inches during severe events. On single ply and modified bitumen roofs, hail bruises the membrane and weakens it long before a leak shows up inside. When we're called in, we look for those bruise patterns, document them with close photos, and note the density per square.

Wind Uplift At Seams And Edges

With minimal wind breaks around the town, gusts have reached the mid 80s mph in Madison County storms. That's enough to lift and peel membrane at seams and perimeter edge metal on commercial roofs. Loose flashing spreads fast once it starts. Our crew reseats and reterminates where possible or writes a proper repair scope when the damage is beyond field fixes.

Ponding After Heavy Rain

Aging flat and low slope roofs on Frankton commercial buildings often lose their positive drainage as insulation compresses and deck deflection sets in. Standing water accelerates membrane breakdown and overloads the structure. We measure ponding areas, check drains and scuppers, and outline options that range from targeted taper work to full replacement depending on severity.

Aging Flashing And Parapets

Much of the downtown commercial stock in Madison County uses parapet walls with counterflashing that hasn't been touched in decades. Mortar joints open, counterflashing lifts, and water finds its way behind the membrane. We inspect those transitions carefully and recommend repair or rework based on what the photos actually show, not a guess.

Choosing the Right Commercial Roof System in Frankton

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

TPO Membrane

Modified bitumen and older built up roofing are the most common systems on Frankton commercial buildings, especially on downtown retail blocks and institutional properties. Owners choose modified bitumen because it handles foot traffic well, tolerates the temperature swings central Indiana throws at it, and can be repaired in sections without replacing the whole field. When installed cleanly with proper flashing and terminations, it's a reasonable value for low slope commercial roofs on tighter budgets.

Most specifiedReflective surface$$
EPDM Rubber

TPO and PVC single ply membranes are the step up for Frankton commercial properties that see real weather exposure. Both offer better resistance to hail impact and UV degradation than older bitumen systems, and reflective white membranes cut cooling loads on larger buildings. The upgrade is worth it when you're already at replacement, when the building has significant rooftop equipment, or when your insurance history in Madison County makes durability a priority.

Proven service lifeSimple repairs$$$
Standing Seam Metal

Standing seam metal is the long life option and shows up often on agricultural and light industrial buildings around Frankton. Properly installed, a metal roof can outlast two or three membrane replacements and handles wind and hail better than most systems. The tradeoff is higher upfront cost and more careful detailing at penetrations and transitions, which is why the install has to be done right the first time.

Commercial Roofing projects completed across Frankton's commercial districts and business corridors. Click any neighborhood for the specifics we have learned working there.

This central district contains the oldest housing stock in town, with some structures dating to the late 1800s and early 1900s, when galvanized iron plumbing was standard. Full basements are common in these older two story and National Folk style homes, and century old sewer lateral connections to the municipal system are prone to root infiltration and collapse. The corridor sits on the flattest ground in town, making it vulnerable to surface ponding and slow drainage following heavy rain events dispatched by thunderstorms common to central Indiana.

Two mobile home parks are documented on the east side of Frankton, featuring manufactured housing that sits closer to grade level and lacks the full basements found in older town center homes. Sewer connections in mobile home communities of this vintage are commonly via flexible laterals that degrade and allow infiltration over time.

The western edge of Frankton contains newer open lot single family development, with homes primarily built after 2000 using PEX supply plumbing and modern drain systems tied into the municipal sewer. View West Side New Construction Area commercial roofing details →
Residential streets surrounding Jefferson Oaks Park represent a mid century core of ranch style homes built predominantly in the 1940s through 1960s, a period associated with copper supply plumbing beginning to replace aging galvanized systems. Sewer laterals from this period are approaching or exceeding 60,80 years of service life, increasing the probability of backup events. View Jefferson Oaks Park Vicinity commercial roofing details →
