Metairie Roof Pros provides professional commercial roofing in Metairie, LA for residential and commercial properties across Jefferson Parish. Commercial work in this parish means the Veterans Memorial Boulevard retail strips, the Elmwood industrial corridor, medical offices along the hospital campuses, and a great many small multi-tenant buildings owned by people who live nearby. Most of it is low-slope, and most of it is older than its owner believes.
The permitting change applies here too and it caught several managers off guard. Act 239 of 2025 requires permitting and inspection of roof construction and reroofing on commercial structures as well as residential ones, for projects beginning on or after August 1 that year. If your last reroof predates that and your next one is being planned around the old assumptions, the schedule needs revisiting.
What we actually deliver on a commercial job is a documentation package, and the roof is what generates it. Deck condition with core cut results, insulation moisture survey, tapered layout, membrane and fastener specifications, in-progress photographs by area, and closeout. That file is what a lender's engineer, an insurer or a buyer's inspector reads two years from now, and it is worth more to an owner than any brochure.
The insurance standard reaches commercial buildings too. Louisiana law requires insurers filing rates to give an actuarially justified credit to structures built or retrofitted to the FORTIFIED home or FORTIFIED commercial standards created by the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety. Most owners we meet have never been told the commercial half exists. It is worth a conversation with your agent before you spec a reroof.
On systems, we install sixty and eighty mil reinforced TPO, EPDM, and two-ply SBS modified bitumen, over high-density cover board where hail or traffic is a factor. Perimeter edge metal is specified to a tested standard rather than fabricated by eye, because on a low building the edge is where the wind gets its first purchase and the failure runs inward from there.
For occupied buildings we phase by area and work around the tenants rather than through them, and we would rather stage a job over three weekends than shut down a suite. We also do straightforward maintenance contracts, twice yearly, which on a flat roof is the cheapest money an owner ever spends and the easiest to defer until it is not. Deferral is the expensive choice here. Ask us for the schedule.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, twenty-six gauge galvanized drip edge replaced new on every tear-off, self-adhered starter strip bonded to the eave metal — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Metairie and nearby communities including New Orleans, Kenner, Marrero, LaPlace.

Materials, equipment and how we do commercial roofing
The difference between commercial roofing that lasts and commercial roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Metairie job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Jefferson Parish means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Metairie Chooses Metairie Roof Pros
- ✓We wait for the permit to issue before anything comes off, because Act 422 of 2025 made starting early a licensing violation rather than a scheduling shortcut
- ✓The deck stays open long enough to photograph properly, from above with a tape measure and from inside the attic, so the attachment can be proved later
- ✓You receive the same file the parish receives, organized by address, so the record survives whichever contractor you use next
- ✓We quote the plain reroof and the documented FORTIFIED version side by side, with the evaluator's hold points already written into the schedule
The standards behind commercial roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The commercial roofing work we do in Metairie follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every commercial roofing project in Metairie gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
