Roofing Contractor in Richardson, TX | Pillar Roofing

Challenge: Just down the street from our office, the Wingate Hotel had an aging gravel-ballasted EPDM roof that leaked so badly the entire top floor could no longer be rented.

Solution: Our team removed the heavy gravel and failing roof system, replaced large areas of damaged decking, and installed a new, fully watertight roofing membrane.

Result: This large roof restoration took 2 weeks to complete, and the top floor was rented out right away; management was very satisfied with the new TPO Retrofit.

The Pillar Roofing Coordinator oversaw the work, documented progress, and ensured every detail was completed properly.

The building owner called Pillar Roofing after water repeatedly collected in front of the rooftop electrical box, creating a safety concern that needed attention. The low area allowed rainwater to sit near the equipment instead of draining away, so our job was to correct the water flow.

We built a custom sloped cricket and covered it with TPO membrane to redirect water away from the electrical box. Our technician carefully fitted the membrane around the existing supports and heat-welded the seams into the surrounding roof. The completed cricket addressed the ponding problem by giving water a path around the equipment, turning a troublesome low spot into a properly sloped drainage area.

Texas storms can arrive suddenly and turn violent within minutes. Some storms will damage roofs, gutters, windows, screens, fascia, garage doors, fencing, and landscaping, leaving property owners to coordinate several contractors.

Your Pillar Roofing Concierge documents the damage, organizes the right trades, and coordinates the restoration from start to finish. You receive one dependable point of contact and one clear path forward. Instead of leaving you to coordinate multiple contractors, the Concierge schedules the roof replacement and meets each specialist—from the HVAC technician and garage-door repair person to the fence crew and screen installers.

Homeowners avoid juggling calls, appointments, and contractors—and can feel confident that nothing is being overlooked.

When lightning struck Signature Flight Support's headquarters at Dallas Love Field, Pillar Roofing responded in less than one hour to secure the damaged roof and help prevent further loss. Although the upper floor had already sustained significant water damage, Signature Flight trusted our team to manage the project from emergency response through complete roof replacement. It's the kind of prompt, dependable service we've built our reputation on.

We evaluate attic temperatures, intake and exhaust openings, and airflow to identify ventilation concerns.

Recommendations may include clearing soffit vents, correcting insulation that blocks intake, or adding properly sized exhaust ventilation. A solar attic fan can help move hot air out when sunlight powers the unit; results depend on sun exposure, available intake air, and the attic’s layout.

The goal is to move the air from the bottom of your attic to the top, where the exhaust will push it out. If this process starts early in the morning, it will help lower the "Heat Gain" in your attic later in the day.

Instead of waiting for heated air to escape on its own, a proactive solar attic fan system continuously pulls hot air out of the attic, reducing heat and humidity.

Most homeowners are shown a shingle color and handed an estimate.

We take a different approach. During our 10-Minute Driveway Demo, your Pillar Roofing Concierge shows you the actual shingles, underlayment, flashing, ventilation products, and other components that make up your roof. You will understand what we recommend, why each part matters, and what will be installed before work begins.

When a roof problem threatens your building, inventory, or daily operations, Pillar Roofing is the team to call for fast, professional commercial roof repair. We locate the true source of the leak, explain what failed, and complete the correct repair—not another temporary patch that leaves the underlying problem behind.

With 25 years of experience, we repair virtually every commercial roofing system, including TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, built-up roofing, metal panels, and roof coatings. From isolated seam failures and damaged flashing to drains, penetrations, equipment curbs, and major storm damage, our goal is simple: respond quickly, repair it properly, and keep your building protected.

What began as a leak call turned into a drainage problem. When Pillar Roofing arrived, an estimated five to eight inches of water had accumulated on the commercial roof. With the drainage path clogged, the water had nowhere to go. We began sweeping the standing water toward the drain to get it moving and reduce the weight of the water sitting on the roof.

As the backed-up water released, it overflowed the gutters, ran down the walkway, and continued through the parking lot toward the street. This job shows why drainage deserves attention during every commercial roof care visit.

Stone-coated steel brings the distinctive appearance of tile together with the strength of steel. Several manufacturers offer these systems, including DECRA. For a batten-mounted tile system like this, we install a carefully spaced framework over the prepared roof deck, then secure the formed panels according to the manufacturer’s installation requirements.

The finished roof is a coordinated assembly. Matching rake pieces, eave details, hip and ridge caps, valleys, and flashings complete the system around the roof’s edges and transitions. Each component has a purpose, combining a distinctive architectural finish with a complete stone-coated steel roof protection system.

This new-construction project in McKinney, Texas, features a custom bronze standing-seam metal roof with numerous intersecting roof sections, valleys, hips, gables, and transitions; it was one of the most technically demanding roofs Pillar Roofing has completed.

The finished roof demonstrates the Precision and Craftsmanship required for a standing-seam system of this complexity.
