Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection

A commercial roof inspection in Converse starts on the roof itself, not from the ground. Our crew walks the membrane looking at seams, laps, flashing at parapets and curbs, drains and scuppers, and any penetrations where HVAC, vents, or conduit come through. We check for hail bruising, wind lifted edges, ponding areas that hold water long after a rain, and the general condition of an aging membrane. Every finding gets photographed and noted, so you have a record of exactly what the roof looked like the day we were there. Thorough inspections matter in Converse because small commercial roof problems, a lifted seam or a cracked flashing boot, become expensive ones once water starts tracking under the membrane.

I agree to be contacted by Converse Commercial Roofing regarding my inquiry.

The commercial building stock around Converse spans fifty years of roofing practice, from coal tar and ballast to single ply systems installed last spring. Each generation fails differently. Ballasted roofs hide their leaks under stone, modified bitumen alligators quietly in the sun, and early TPO from the thin mil era is reaching the end all at once across Grant County.

Converse Commercial Roofing works commercial roofs across Converse and the wider Grant County area: single buildings, multi site portfolios, and everything a property manager inherits between them. TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and coating systems all live in the service mix, and every visit ends the same way, with photos, readings, and notes in a file the owner keeps.

Commercial roof concerns in Converse? Converse Commercial Roofing answers with a survey, not a sales call. Active leaks get priority response, assessments get scheduled promptly, and every finding arrives in writing with photos attached. Call (765) 978-5086 and reach a project lead who can talk scope, schedule, and budget in the same conversation.

About Us

Local Expertise, Real Results

The crew that walks your roof is the crew that writes what is wrong with it.

Converse Commercial Roofing treats a reroof as a chance to fix what the last roof lived with: drainage that never worked, insulation below code, details that leaked from year one. The scope names it all before the deposit.

Converse Commercial Roofing serves Converse and the surrounding Miami County and Grant County communities with commercial roofing that fits the buildings actually standing here. Founded in 2018 by Aaron Christy, who has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6, the company has spent years working on flat and low slope commercial roofs across central Indiana. Our crews are local, licensed, and insured under Indiana license RC21100059. Whether you manage a single storefront in Converse or a portfolio that stretches out toward Peru, Marion, and Kokomo, you get the same straightforward approach. We show up, look carefully, and tell you what we see.

The way we work in Converse is simple. A crew walks the roof, checks membrane seams, flashing, drains, and rooftop penetrations, and documents everything with photos before writing anything up. You get a clear written estimate with the scope spelled out, not a vague number that changes later. On the commercial roofing side, that means calling out whether a section needs a targeted repair, a larger membrane replacement, or a full tear off, and explaining why. When the work starts, we protect the building, keep the site clean, and finish with a walkthrough so nothing is left to guess.

Our Promise

Every Converse property manager who calls Converse Commercial Roofing gets three things. First, a free on site inspection of the commercial roof before we ask you to commit to any work. Second, an honest written estimate with line items you can actually read, no vague allowances or surprise add ons after the crew mobilizes. Third, clean workmanship backed by a workmanship warranty on what we install, alongside the standard manufacturer coverage that applies to the membrane or metal system used. That is the baseline, not an upsell.

Why Converse Chooses Us

Chosen by Converse Managers for a Reason

Serving Converse and Grant County with quality materials, thorough inspections, and transparent pricing.

Built For Storm Response

When hail or straight line wind hits Converse, we prioritize storm calls and get commercial roofs looked at quickly. Our crews know what wind uplift damage looks like on TPO and modified bitumen, and how hail bruises show up days later. You get documented findings you can act on before the next front rolls through.

Local Commercial Experience

We work on Converse commercial buildings regularly, from older masonry buildings with built up roofs to newer single ply membrane systems. That means we understand how these roofs actually fail in central Indiana weather. You get recommendations grounded in the buildings around you, not a generic playbook.

Full Scope, One Crew

From the first inspection through the final walkthrough, one company handles it. Commercial roof inspections, repair, emergency repair, replacement, and metal roofing install are all in house. That keeps the scope, the schedule, and the accountability in one place for the property manager.

Insurance Documentation Done Right

Storm claims live and die on documentation. For Converse commercial roofs with hail or wind damage, we photograph everything, note the failure modes clearly, and provide a written estimate your carrier and adjuster can actually work from. You spend less time chasing paperwork and more time getting the roof fixed.

Our Process

The Path From Call to Close Out in Converse

It starts with a free on site inspection of your Converse commercial roof. A crew member walks the roof, checks membrane condition, seams, flashing, drains, and rooftop equipment, and photographs anything that looks like storm damage or age related wear. We note ponding areas, edge conditions, and any penetrations that need attention. Before we leave, you have a clear picture of what the roof actually looks like and where the problems are. Nothing is quoted or scoped until this walkthrough is done, because guessing at a commercial roof from the ground or from Google Earth is how bad estimates get written.

Next comes the written estimate. We put the scope in plain language, list what will be repaired or replaced, and price it honestly for the Converse property manager to review. If there is a storm damage claim in play, we hand you the photo documentation and written findings your insurance carrier will want to see, and we are happy to be on the roof with your adjuster to walk through the damage together. works with your insurance carrier, and we will never tell you what your policy covers. That is between you and your carrier.

Once the estimate is approved, we schedule the work around your building's operations in Converse. The crew stages materials to keep entrances and parking usable, protects landscaping and rooftop equipment, and installs the membrane, flashing, or metal system according to the scope. We keep the site clean day to day and haul debris off at the end. When the work is finished, we walk the roof with you, review what was done, and hand over documentation for your records. Cleanup is part of the job, not an afterthought.

Free Roof Inspection

We come out to your Converse commercial property, walk the roof, and document what we find with photos. No charge and no pressure to move forward. You get an honest read on where the roof stands.

Honest Written Estimate

You get a written estimate with the scope spelled out clearly, not a lump sum number with no detail. Line items match what the crew will actually do. If something changes mid project, you hear about it before it happens.

Insurance Claim Support

For storm related damage, we provide the photo documentation and written findings your insurance carrier needs. We will meet the adjuster on the roof when it helps. works with your insurance carrier, and the deductible stays yours.

Clean Workmanship, Final Walkthrough

The crew keeps the site clean throughout the job and hauls debris off at completion. We walk the finished roof with you, review the work, and leave documentation behind. Workmanship on what we install is backed by our warranty.

Common Causes

What we see most often on Converse commercial roofs

Converse property managers typically call us about these scenarios.

Penetration and Curb Failures

Pipes, drains, equipment curbs, and pitch pans age faster than the field membrane around them, and they are where most Converse commercial leaks start. Converse Commercial Roofing treats penetrations as a system during every inspection, resealing and rebuilding details before they leak instead of after the drywall stains and the tenant calls.

Deferred Maintenance That Compounds

Nothing on a low slope roof fails all at once. A lap opens, the insulation under it takes water, wet board loses compressive strength, the membrane above it moves more, and the next lap opens. Converse Commercial Roofing writes a condition report a facility director can hand to finance, with what has to happen this year and what can honestly wait.

Chalking and Shrinkage on an Older Roof

White TPO and PVC chalk as the surface weathers, and a chalky membrane is harder to weld to, which matters on the day somebody needs to make a repair. EPDM fails the other direction: the sheet shrinks over the years and pulls flashings down off the parapet and away from the corners.

Rooftop Equipment the Roof Gets Blamed For

Condensate lines, drain pans, unit panel joints, and duct connections all sit above an occupied ceiling, and any one of them can drip on a tenant without the membrane being involved. Water runs along the deck flutes and appears somewhere else entirely. Converse Commercial Roofing traces it to the source and puts the finding in writing, even when the finding is that your mechanical contractor owes you a visit.

Seams Letting Go on a Taped EPDM Roof

EPDM is a thermoset rubber, so its laps are taped or adhered rather than heat welded the way TPO and PVC are. The adhesive is what ages, and it usually gives up first at T joints where three plies stack on top of each other. A lap rebuilt while it is still just a lap is a maintenance line item. The same lap found two years later is an insulation replacement.

Ballast and Coatings at the End of Their Run

Stone ballast hides everything under it, so a split sheet can sit open a long time before anybody knows. Coating systems have their own clock, since the film thins under UV and foot traffic. Converse Commercial Roofing tells you which one you have and whether a restoration coating even applies here, because coatings go over a roof that is sound and dry, and wet insulation has to come out first.

Common Questions

What Comes Up on Every Converse Bid

Straight answers to the questions Converse property managers ask most.

Typically, we schedule Converse inspections promptly and give storm damage calls priority when weather has just moved through. Active leaks and emergency repair requests move ahead of routine assessments because interior damage compounds quickly. When you call, we take the building details, the situation, and any access notes, then set a time that works for your operations. We will not promise a specific hour on the phone we cannot back up, but you will get a real answer and a real appointment. Call to get on the schedule.
It depends on the scope, the size of the roof, and the system involved. Most Converse commercial roof repairs land in a modest range for isolated seam or flashing work, while larger repairs and partial replacements run higher based on square footage and materials. Full commercial roof replacements are typically priced by the square with the membrane type, insulation, and edge detail all factored in. The only honest number comes after we walk the roof and put a written estimate together. Schedule a free inspection to get real pricing.
It depends on your policy and the nature of the damage. Sudden storm damage from a specific hail or wind event is often covered by commercial property policies, while age related wear and long term deterioration typically are not. Your deductible applies, and coverage decisions rest with your insurance carrier and their adjuster, not with us. What we do is document the damage thoroughly with photos and written findings so your carrier has what they need. works with your insurance carrier. Document the damage with photos and call to have it inspected.
It depends on the age of the roof, the extent of the damage, and how much of the membrane is still serviceable. Isolated leaks, a few failed seams, or damage limited to one area usually point toward repair. Widespread membrane failure, saturated insulation, or a roof already past its service life usually point toward replacement. We give you an honest read after the inspection, including whether repair is a short term fix or a real solution. Schedule a free inspection and we will walk you through the options.
In Converse, our inspection covers the full roof surface, membrane condition, seams and laps, flashing at parapets and curbs, drains and scuppers, and every penetration where equipment or vents come through. We look for storm damage, ponding areas, and signs of age related wear. Everything gets photographed and noted. You receive a written summary of the findings and, if repairs are needed, a clear estimate to go with them. Call to schedule a free inspection.
It depends on the scope and the size of the roof. Most targeted repairs are completed in a day or two once materials are on site. Larger repairs or partial replacements typically run several days. Full commercial roof replacements in Converse can run one to three weeks or longer depending on square footage, tear off complexity, and weather. We give you a realistic schedule in the written estimate and keep you posted if anything shifts. Ask about timing when you schedule the inspection.
Two layers of coverage typically apply. Our workmanship warranty covers the installation itself, meaning if something we installed fails because of how we installed it, we come back and make it right. The membrane, metal, or other roofing materials carry the standard manufacturer warranty that comes with those products, and the specific terms depend on the system used. We will walk you through both before you sign anything. Ask us to review the warranty details during the estimate.
In Converse, first make sure the building is safe and check the interior for signs of active leaks, stained ceiling tiles, or water at wall bases. Take photos of any visible damage inside and outside, including hail on the ground if you have it. Do not send anyone onto the roof who is not trained to be up there. Then call a commercial roofer to inspect the roof and document what happened, ideally before you file with your carrier. Call Converse Commercial Roofing to schedule the inspection.
Indiana Climate

Indiana Weather Affects Commercial Roofs Year Round

Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Converse property managers deal with spring hail and severe thunderstorms, summer UV exposure, fall wind storms, and winter freeze thaw cycles. Understanding these patterns is how we plan maintenance, repairs, and replacement work.

Hail Bruising On Membrane

Converse sits in a secondary hail corridor, and hail leaves bruises on TPO and modified bitumen that may not leak immediately but weaken the membrane. Bruised areas fail earlier, often at the next freeze thaw cycle. When called in after a hailstorm, we walk the roof, mark impact points, and photograph them for your records and any claim.

Wind Lifting Seams And Edges

Straight line winds from spring and summer storms peel back membrane at seams, edges, and around rooftop equipment on Converse commercial roofs. Once a seam lifts, water tracks underneath and the damage spreads fast. Our crew re secures edges, reseals seams, and checks flashing at parapets and curbs before it turns into interior damage.

Ponding After Heavy Rain

Converse sits in a low elevation drainage environment, and heavy rain often leaves standing water on flat commercial roofs long after the sky clears. Ponding stresses membrane laps and drain assemblies and shortens roof life. We check drains, scuppers, and low spots, clear obstructions, and recommend targeted repairs or tapered insulation where the roof simply cannot shed water on its own.

Aging Membrane And Flashing

A lot of downtown commercial buildings carry roofs that are well into or past their expected service life. Membrane gets brittle, flashing cracks at penetrations, and small openings become active leaks. When we inspect an older commercial roof, we lay out honestly whether targeted repair still makes sense or whether replacement is the more responsible spend.

Choosing the Right Commercial Roof System in Converse

An honest breakdown of the three low slope systems we install most frequently.

TPO Membrane

Modified bitumen is one of the most common commercial roof systems on Converse buildings, especially on older masonry structures downtown and mid size service buildings. It handles foot traffic well, tolerates rooftop equipment, and stands up to central Indiana temperature swings. Owners choose it because it is proven, repairable in sections, and works on the low slope geometry that most Converse commercial buildings actually have. Installed correctly with clean flashing details, it delivers a long, predictable service life.

Most specifiedReflective surface$$
EPDM Rubber

TPO and other single ply membranes are a common upgrade for Converse commercial roofs, particularly on newer buildings and larger institutional roof planes. The heat welded seams hold up well against wind uplift, and the lighter color reflects sun and reduces cooling loads in summer. For buildings that see hail exposure or that need long runs without penetrations, a thicker mil TPO is often worth the modest cost bump over a base spec. We walk you through the tradeoffs before you commit.

Proven service lifeSimple repairs$$$
Standing Seam Metal

Standing seam metal is the premium option for Converse commercial roofs that can accommodate the slope and structural requirements. Service life is long, it sheds water and snow well, and it stands up to hail and wind better than most membrane systems. The tradeoff is upfront cost and the reality that not every existing building is a good candidate, especially historic masonry structures downtown. When metal makes sense for a Converse commercial property, we scope it carefully and install it clean.

This is the historic core of Converse platted from the 1849 Xenia era town plan and expanded after 1867, featuring the oldest residential and commercial structures in town, many now well over a century old. Homes here were originally plumbed with galvanized iron, and sewer laterals servicing these properties are clay tile or early cast iron, prone to root intrusion and collapse under the town's aging system. View Downtown / Jefferson Street Corridor commercial roofing details →
The residential blocks surrounding Converse Elementary School (600 E. Washington St.) represent a mix of early to mid 20th century housing built as the town grew along its primary east west corridor. Homes from this period typically feature full basements with poured concrete or block walls and galvanized to copper transitional plumbing, and many have aging floor drains that can back sew during heavy rain events when the municipal system surcharges. The proximity to the lower lying eastern reach of town near Taylor Creek increases the risk of subsurface water table elevation affecting basement dryness after prolonged rainfall. View Washington Street / Converse Elementary Area commercial roofing details →
Marion Street is the primary commercial and residential spine of Converse, carrying SR 18 and SR 19 through the center of town, and the homes flanking it represent multiple construction eras from the railroad boom of the late 1800s through mid century infill. View Marion Street Corridor (SR 18 / SR 19) commercial roofing details →
The residential neighborhoods along Converse's western boundary sit adjacent to Little Pipe Creek, which runs along the town's western border and feeds into Pipe Creek and ultimately the Wabash River system. View Western Residential Area (Little Pipe Creek Vicinity) commercial roofing details →
The eastern extension of Converse's residential footprint is crossed by Taylor Creek, which also drains northward into the Pipe Creek,Wabash watershed. The creek's proximity to residential lots means that ground saturation during multi day rain events can overwhelm foundation drainage and window well systems in below grade spaces.
