TPO roofing
Energy saving
TPO roofing systems are among the fastest-growing commercial roofing products. This roofing system is constructed out of a combination of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene to create a unique and durable roof. One of the major advantages of TPO roofing products is white coloration. This means it does not have the heat absorption of black rooftops and makes for lower cooling costs.
TPO products come in wide sheets and easy to install seams which helps reduce installation costs. This type of roofing is also popular for “green” buildings as it doesn’t contain plasticizers. The durability of TPO commercial roofing products is excellent and even resists UV radiation damage. Contact Infinity Exteriors today to learn more about the best values on TPO roofing from any Milwaukee commercial roofing contractor.
EPDM rubber roofing
The traditional flat roof
The traditional leader among flat commercial roofing products, EPDM is a weatherproof, economical solution to your commercial roofing needs. This type of roofing is constructed of a synthetic rubber compound, making it extremely durable and resistant to UV radiation. EPDM roofing is versatile and long-lasting. While the black coloration of EPDM rubber can lead to higher cooling costs compared to TPO roofing, in Wisconsin the costs are much less than in Southern states.
Call Infinity Exteriors of Milwaukee today to learn about the advantages of each of our commercial roofing products, and get the best value on commercial roofing in Milwaukee.
Neogard roof coating
Economical solution
Replacing your roof is not always the best option. Neogard is the world's leading producer of elastomeric coatings used in construction. These quality roof coatings are designed to provide protection from weather elements on a variety of roofing types and increase overall durability. With 45 plus years in polymeric coatings technology and over 80 years in the coating industry, no other brand has a better experience.
Products from Neogard have been used on some of the most prestigious projects around the world and by leading architects and engineers. Full certifications from the Underwriters Laboratories and Factory Mutual on all products.
Fluid applied roofing systems
Water and weatherproof
A simple alternative to asphalt & gravel roofing, fluid applied roofing systems from Infinity Exteriors, LLC creates a seamless bond on commercial flat roofs. Fluid applied roofing systems including urethane and polyurea are a popular choice for Wisconsin businesses as the seamless membrane will not crack during cold weather. Sprayed Polyurethane Foam (SPF) insulation is frequently covered using fluid-applied roofing systems such as silicone and acrylic.
Contact Infinity Exteriors, LLC and learn how a fluid-applied roofing system can benefit your business.
Bitumen roof systems
Superior flexibility and impact resistant
Bitumen roofing material is the critical cap of Built-Up-Roof (BUR) systems. Many Milwaukee business owners favor bitumen roofing as it offers comprehensive waterproofing and weather resistance. When installed by a certified roofing contractor like Infinity Exteriors, LLC bitumen roofing systems resist cracks caused by cold weather contraction better than asphalt & gravel systems. Bitumen roofing systems are available for BUR, and as standalone SBS modified and APP modified materials.

PVC roofing materials
Low cost, high performance
A low-cost, flexible roofing solution, PVC roofing membranes from Infinity Exteriors, LLC ensure commercial flat roofs are protected from all manner of damage. Most flat roofs experience heavy ponding, especially in Wisconsin during the spring thaw. A PVC membrane creates a watertight seal that prevents water penetration and protects the roofing substrate. Once the sun comes out in summer, PVC membranes protect roofs from UV damage.
Contact Infinity Exteriors, LLC today to learn more about commercial PVC roofing membranes.
Commercial flat roof materials and coating
Infinity Exteriors offers only the best materials for flat roofing systems such as GAF, Versico, and Mule-hide TPO and EPDM rubber roofing products. We provide new installations, repairs, and commercial roof replacements for businesses in Milwaukee. A popular alternative to flat roof replacement is fluid-applied roofing systems that provide completely seamless waterproofing for your roof. Veteran Infinity flat roof contractors can also apply polyurethane-based Neogard roof coating to extend the life of your low-slope roof.
To get the most protection against harsh Milwaukee Wisconsin weather on your flat roof, we install built-up roofing (asphalt & gravel roofing) for long-lasting weather resistance and modified bitumen waterproof membranes on commercial buildings. We also offer PVC single-ply roofing as a low-cost, low-maintenance commercial roofing material.
Advantages of flat roofs
Flat roofs cost less to build than pitched commercial roofs. Low-slope roofs are easier to walk on and inspect. Maintenance is generally more affordable than steep slope upkeep.
With a flat roof, you’ll also have new usable space on your roof area for air conditioning units, solar panels, and other equipment. Flat roof systems improve thermal insulation, making them incredibly energy efficient and an optimal option for regions with high winds.
Are flat roofs really flat?
Actually, no. A “flat roof” is never completely level. Also known as “low-slope roofs” flat roofs always have a very slight pitch, with just enough of a slope to drain water.
While as a rule of thumb low slope roofs are more prone to leaks and ponding than pitched roofs, this is only due to poorly installed and improperly maintained roofing. With Infinity Exterior's flat roof experts, you won’t have to worry about frequent cracks or leaks.
Common commercial roofing problems
Poor drainage
Heavy rain and snow on a commercial roof can form puddles, which wear away at the roof material. The water then works its way inside, creating a leak.
Why it happens
Many commercial buildings have flat roofing. A perfectly flat surface will not drain naturally after it rains or snows. Standing or ponding water can lead to expensive leaks.
How to prevent it
Professional roofing installation from Infinity Exteriors on a “flat” roof will include low slopes with a very slight pitch to drain water. Other features like flashing materials and gutters will also promote better drainage.
Leaky flashing
Flashing weatherproof material is used to reinforce roof joints and seams. Leaks around flashing can weaken already vulnerable areas of the roof.
Why it happens
Chimneys, windows, and HVAC systems all create gaps in roofing material requiring flashing. If the flashing is not installed correctly, it won’t keep water out.
How to prevent it
Infinity Exteriors will recommend the right material and style flashing for your roof. will give you an estimate on installing and replacement so you know the costs upfront.
Membrane shrinkage
Certain roofing materials like PVC or EPDM membranes can shrink under extreme conditions.
Why it happens
DIY roofing projects may mix incompatible materials, leading to a weaker membrane more prone to shrinkage. Poor installation may result in an ill-fitting roof with shrunken sections.
How to prevent it
Professional roof installation will result in a better fit with the right materials, reducing the chances of shrinkage.
Membrane tenting
The membrane on the roof acts like a giant sheet. Tenting, billowing, or blow-off occurs when the membrane is not firmly attached to the rest of the roof.
Why it happens
Improper installation can cause sections of the membrane to separate from the roof. This leads to the loose sections blowing around or filling up with air.
How to prevent it
Expert roof installation and regular maintenance from Infinity Exteriors will keep the membrane material in check.
Interior issues
A leak in a roof can lead to interior leaks. Water damage in an attic area often indicates an exterior problem.
Why it happens
Ponding water on the roof can leak through to the inside of the building. The moisture can weaken the wood and create the perfect environment for mold.
How to prevent it
Pay attention to the interior of your roofing. Any indoor leaks or water stains are likely being caused by a roof issue.
Bird & squirrel nesting
Wisconsin winters drive animals to find any warm shelter. Attics and HVAC systems often seem suitable for small animals, providing them interior access to your commercial building.
Why it happens
Birds and animals only need a very small space to enter a building. Minor tears in roofing material are more than enough. Once in, they can wreak havoc on the rest of the roof.
How to prevent it
Reduce the potential entrances animals will create. Have the professionals of Infinity Exteriors fix all holes in your roof material, cover gutters, and watch for membrane shrinkage.
Tree damage
Trees near your commercial building can fall or lose branches from severe weather or age.
Why it happens
Heavy tree limbs and sharp branches can cause a lot of roof damage. Even a small branch can penetrate a roof in the right conditions. A single tear in the weatherproofing can let water enter the building, leading to more problems.
How to prevent it
Keep trees near your building trimmed or hire a professional to handle your landscaping.
Ice damming
Melted snow or ice needs to be drained from your commercial roof. Otherwise, the water may refreeze around the flashing or gutter system. This process creates ice dams. Water will build up around the ice. The more weight from ice, the more work your roof has to do.
Why it happens
Poor building insulation heats roof snow and ice from below, causing it to melt while the rest stays solid.
How to prevent it
Infinity Exteriors contractors will install insulation at your property to prevent the creation of ice dams and save energy. With heat no longer escaping through the roof, your heating system can take a break.
Exposed HVAC systems
HVAC systems are usually installed on the roof of commercial buildings to save floor space and provide more efficient heating/cooling services.
Why it happens
Commercial-grade HVAC systems include a lot of parts and weight. This adds additional strain to the roof. Repair or maintenance work on the unit can lead to foot traffic damage as well.
How to prevent it
Always have your roof checked out before and after installing a new HVAC unit. Infinity contractors can check to see no part of the roof was damaged during the installation process.
Tears from foot traffic
Modern buildings often have HVAC systems, chimneys, and other features located on the roof. People must then walk on the roof to reach these areas.
Why it happens
Regular foot traffic can lead to wear and tear. Certain types of shoes and heavy tools can damage roof material. These scrapes and rips ruin the weatherproofing.
How to prevent it
Only certain employees should be allowed on the roof for any reason. If anyone has to work on the roof, supervise the work.
Ignoring problems
Like every part of your business, your roof needs regular maintenance. Ignoring any of these listed issues can lead to further roof damage in the future.
Why it happens
Many commercial properties are leased out, making it difficult to know who should be keeping tabs on maintenance issues.
How to prevent it
Employees should be trained to notice and report major problems. Hire Infinity Exteriors for regular checks and maintenance.
DIY disaster
DIY kits for minor roof repairs are available at most major hardware stores. Yet deeper roof issues are easy to miss and difficult to fix with these kits.
Why it happens
DIY kits are mass-produced and usually meant to create temporary fixes. Sometimes the results don’t work at all. In worst-case scenarios, inexperienced workers can injure themselves while on the roof.
How to prevent it
Call in the professionals of Infinity Exteriors whenever you need work done on your roofing. Not only are the results more reliable, but it’s also safer for your workers.

Infinity is my go-to contractor for exterior needs. As the Maintenance Director for area luxury apartment communities I have had them repair damaged fascia, replace the shingled roofs on 8 buildings with 33 apartments per building, and I am currently using them to replace windows in that same community. The thing that makes them stand out from other contractors (besides competitive pricing), is their customer service. Jake K. goes above and beyond to make sure everything is right from the first meeting about a project, to any follow-up and service needed after the jobs are complete. When it comes to doing the job, the installers workmanship is of the highest quality and they get the job done in a timely matter. All while keeping it clean to be as minimally intrusive to our residents as possible. I have referred Infinity to family and friends for window and roofing work on their homes. Jake takes the time to explain their products and the process so that his customer understands and is comfortable with their decision to use Infinity. I look forward to working with Jake and Infinity for more projects in the future.
