Real project, before & after
Bowling Center EPDM Roof Restoration by Rob Zahm
This bowling center had an aging black EPDM membrane with weathered seams around the rooftop units. The deck was cleaned, seams and HVAC curbs were sealed, and a Conklin white reflective system was applied over the existing membrane. No tear-off, and the business stayed open through the job.

Commercial Roof Repair and Roof Coatings in Chicago, IL
Chicago, IL weather runs through hot humid summers, freeze-thaw winters, and severe spring storms. That is what wears out commercial roofs here, and it usually shows up as seam separation, rusted metal panels, ponding around drains, and leaks after every thaw. Most owners call after they see a stain on the ceiling, by then the insulation under the leak has often been wet for months.
Rob Zahm, the Conklin-trained contractor who covers Chicago, starts with a free on-site inspection of your distribution warehouses or other commercial building. You get photos of what is actually failing, a written scope, and a straight answer on whether the roof needs targeted repair, a full restoration coating, or replacement. No pressure, and no charge for the inspection.
Most roofs in Chicago do not need to be torn off. If the deck is sound and the insulation is dry, a Conklin white reflective coating system seals the roof, stops the leaks, and adds 10 to 20 years of service life, at a fraction of replacement cost and with no disposal or shutdown.

Roof Coatings for Chicago, IL Buildings
A Conklin white reflective coating is the most cost-effective option for most low-slope and metal roofs in Chicago. It reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it, which lowers rooftop temperature and cuts summer cooling load, and it seals the whole roof as one continuous surface so there are no seams left to open back up.
Coating work in Illinois is scheduled April through October. Systems are available for metal, TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, and spray foam roofs, and the finished system carries a Conklin warranty of up to 20 years. Pricing depends on roof size, condition, and system, which is why we inspect before quoting rather than guessing at a per-square-foot number.
