HOW CAN WE HELP?
General questions
Below are answers to some of the most common questions we hear about commercial and industrial roofing and the services we provide right here in Big Rapids.
What commercial roofing services do you offer in Big Rapids?
At Weather Shield Roofing Systems’ Big Rapids location, we serve business owners, facility managers, and maintenance teams with a full range of commercial roofing services — including scheduled repairs, full roof replacements, detailed inspections, free estimates, and 24/7 emergency response. No matter the service, our mission is the same: help Allendale businesses extend the life of their roofs while keeping long-term costs down.
What makes Weather Shield Roofing Systems different from the other commercial roofers in Big Rapids?
Our commitment is to treat your roof as if it were our own. As most roofing contractors only care about selling a brand new roof, that doesn’t fit in with our philosophy. Instead, we focus on giving you more roof life for less roof cost by minimizing roofing costs, eliminating unpleasant surprises and interruptions, and helping you gain control over your expenditures.

Are all of your Big Rapids commercial roofers trained and certified?
Yes. We are a licensed roofing contractor, and we also provide industry-leading training and roofing certifications to each one of our employees.
Do you install shingles or work on flat roofs for residences?
No, we do not install shingles or work on residential homes. At Weather Shield Roofing Systems™, our focus is on commercial and industrial roofing services. We specialize in working with property managers, facility managers, maintenance managers, business owners, and others to provide them with more roof life for less roof cost.
Do you offer free roof estimates and evaluations?

How often should I inspect my commercial roof?
Industry experts recommend, and roofing manufacturers require that every commercial roof be evaluated by a professional at least once (but preferably twice) a year even if no damage is evident.
In addition to regularly scheduled annual or bi-annual inspections, every roof should be checked by one of our Service Professionals after major weather events like high winds, hail, and severe storms to ensure no damage has occurred.
If your building is showing signs of roof leaks like water stains on the ceiling and/or walls, holes, slices, punctures, or openings in the seams or corners of the rooftop, we highly recommend having one of our Roofing Technicians come out to evaluate your roof.
At Weather Shield Roofing Systems™, we offer free roof estimates and evaluations and would be happy to take a look at your roof. Request a free estimate today!
What are the signs of a flat roof leak?
The first sign of a roof leak is usually a small water stain that shows up on the ceiling and/or walls. Other signs can include damage like holes, slices, or punctures, openings in seams or at the corners of rooftop units, or other penetrations on top of your roof.
If you notice anything concerning or are uncertain about the condition of your roof, contact us. We’d be happy to come out and do a free evaluation on your company’s roof.
How much does a new commercial roof cost?
The cost of a new commercial roof can range from about $3 per square feet up to $10 or more per square feet depending on factors like tear-off, the amount of new insulation required, the size of the project, the number of penetrations on the rooftop, and the type and configuration of the new roofing system.
All that said, the best question to ask first is, “Do I need a new roof?” At Weather Shield Roofing Systems™, we’re in the business of extending the life of your current roof for less cost. Wondering how? Watch this quick video to learn more about the math behind owning a new commercial roof versus extending the life of your current one.
