High-Performance Commercial Roof Restoration in Madison, WI
In the Madison business community, sustainability and fiscal responsibility go hand in hand. At Premier Roof Solutions, we help property owners achieve both through professional commercial roof restoration. Statistics show that nearly 70-80% of commercial roofs in Wisconsin are torn off and replaced well before they have actually failed. Restoration allows you to hit the "reset button" on your roof's life cycle for a fraction of the cost of a traditional replacement.
By utilizing high-performance Conklin® coating systems, we apply a seamless, waterproof membrane directly over your existing roof. This eliminates the need for a costly tear-off, keeps debris out of Dane County landfills, and provides a brand-new, warrantied surface that can withstand Madison's most extreme weather.
The Financial Logic: Why Madison Businesses Choose Restoration
For a commercial property manager in Madison or Sun Prairie, the ROI of restoration is undeniable. We prioritize restoration because it offers three distinct financial advantages:
- Massive Cost Savings: A full restoration typically costs 50% to 70% less than a full tear-off and replacement.
- Immediate Tax Benefits: Unlike a roof replacement, which is a capital expenditure that must be depreciated over 39 years, a roof restoration is often classified as a maintenance expense. This typically allows you to deduct the full cost of the project in the same tax year it was completed.
- The "Cool Roof" Rebate: Many Madison businesses qualify for energy rebates because our white reflective coatings reflect up to 85% of the sun’s heat, drastically reducing the "Urban Heat Island" effect in downtown Madison.
Our Madison Restoration Systems
Every commercial building is different. Whether you have a retail center in Middleton or a manufacturing plant near the Madison Airport, we have a specialized restoration system for your specific deck type:
Metal Roof Restoration (MR® System)
Metal roofs in the Midwest are prone to rust and fastener "backing out" due to extreme temperature swings. Our restoration process involves:
- Treating all rust with specialized inhibitors.
- Tightening and sealing every fastener with high-tension caps.
- Applying a seamless membrane that stops leaks and provides a rust-proof finish for decades.
Membrane Restoration (TPO, EPDM, PVC)
If your flat roof membrane is starting to chalk, crack, or leak at the seams, our liquid-applied systems can save it. We chemically clean the surface and apply a new "skin" that bonds at the molecular level. This creates a monolithic (one-piece) surface that eliminates the #1 cause of roof failure: seam failure.
Fabric-Reinforced Systems
For buildings that require extra durability against Madison’s summer hail storms, we embed a tough, flexible polyester fabric into the liquid coating. This creates a "bulletproof" layer that is incredibly resistant to punctures and high-wind uplift.

Sustainability: The Greener Choice for Madison
As Madison continues to lead the way in environmental consciousness, roof restoration has become the preferred choice for eco-friendly building management.
- Zero Waste: We eliminate the need to transport tons of old roofing material to local landfills.
- Reduced Energy Load: By reflecting solar heat, our roofs keep your building cooler naturally, reducing the load on your HVAC systems and lowering Madison’s overall energy demand during peak summer months.
- Renewability: When the warranty on your restoration expires (in 18–20 years), the roof can simply be recoated for a fraction of the original restoration cost, effectively making it a "lifetime" roofing system.

See if Your Roof is a Candidate for Restoration
Not every roof can be restored. If your insulation is already saturated, we may recommend a replacement. However, for roofs caught in time, restoration is the smartest investment you can make.
