Santa Fe Roof Pros provides professional commercial roofing in Santa Fe, NM for residential and commercial properties across northern New Mexico. New Mexico effectively banned commercial roof recover, and most building owners discover that mid-budget. The state's amended roof recovering section states that new roof coverings shall not be installed without first removing the existing coverings down to the structural roof deck.
The same section adds that where pumice or other granular fill is present it must be removed before a new roof goes on. Across the older commercial stock around the Railyard, Cerrillos Road and the downtown blocks, that fill is common, and it converts a straightforward reroof into a disposal job with a real line item attached. We price it openly rather than discovering it on day two.
Drainage is held to a written standard on the commercial side, which is unusual and useful. The state defines positive roof drainage as additional slope sufficient that no more than half an inch of standing water remains 48 hours after precipitation, and the parapet section requires the top surface of the parapet wall itself to drain. Those two sentences decide most of our tapered layouts. They also decide whether a roof can be repaired or must be re-sloped.
Secondary overflow is not optional wherever a parapet can trap water. The code requires emergency overflow drains or scuppers wherever perimeter construction rises above the roof in such a manner that water will be entrapped if the primary drains back up. On a downtown Santa Fe building with a full parapet and two interior drains, that describes essentially every roof. Cutting a scupper through a parapet is straightforward work and it protects the structure below.
Systems follow the building rather than the salesman. Sixty and eighty mil TPO or PVC for restaurants and anything with grease exhaust, EPDM where the roof is uncomplicated and the budget is genuinely tight, two-ply SBS modified bitumen where roof traffic is heavy and constant, and sprayed foam with silicone where the deck is irregular and crowded with curbs and units. We will tell you which of those your building actually is rather than leading with a preference.
We work around occupancy, because we have to. Hotels, galleries, restaurants and clinics cannot take a roof that opens on a Friday and rains on a Saturday, so we phase to daily dry-in, keep the tear-off ahead of the install by one section only, and we never open more deck than the crew can close before the afternoon build-up arrives.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — canale pans lapped six inches inside the parapet, continuous parapet coping wrapped down both faces, sprayed polyurethane foam with a silicone topcoat, 60 and 80 mil TPO and PVC single-ply membrane, torch-applied two-ply SBS cap sheet, tapered polyisocyanurate cut to a quarter inch per foot — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Santa Fe and nearby communities including Eldorado at Santa Fe, La Cienega, Agua Fria, Pojoaque.

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 canale pans lapped six inches inside the parapet, continuous parapet coping wrapped down both faces, sprayed polyurethane foam with a silicone topcoat, 60 and 80 mil TPO and PVC single-ply membrane, 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 Santa Fe 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 northern New Mexico means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Santa Fe Chooses Santa Fe Roof Pros
- ✓We test drainage with a hose and a clock against the state's half-inch, 48-hour standard before we quote anything.
- ✓Every canale is rebuilt with a metal pan lining running six inches inside the parapet, not patched with sealant.
- ✓Parapet caps are held with cleats at the vertical faces because the code forbids fasteners across the horizontal top.
- ✓We price pumice removal openly, because New Mexico no longer permits granular fill to stay in a roof assembly.
