We install strong, energy-efficient commercial roofing systems that keep your project on schedule and built to last.
At Great Western Roofing, new construction roofing is one of the core services we provide for commercial and industrial projects. We work with owners, developers, general contractors, and project managers who need a roofing partner that understands schedules, specifications, code requirements, and long-term roof performance. With 20 years of experience as a Utah roofing contractor, we know how to install roofing systems that are built for durability, energy efficiency, and clean project closeout.
When you are putting up a new building, the roof is too important to leave to chance. A properly installed roofing system helps protect the structure, manage energy costs, support drainage, and reduce future repair problems. Our job is to make sure your new roof is installed the right way from the start, with careful attention to materials, details, safety, and workmanship.
We provide complete commercial new construction roofing services from planning through final installation. Our team works closely with the build team to match the roofing system to the building use, budget, slope, insulation needs, and performance goals. We can install roofing systems for retail buildings, warehouses, schools, office buildings, industrial facilities, and other commercial properties.
Every building has different needs, so we do not take a one-size-fits-all approach. We help select the right commercial roofing system based on the structure, climate, exposure, and long-term goals for the property.
Single ply roofing is a popular choice for many commercial buildings because it offers strong waterproofing performance, clean installation, and good energy efficiency. These systems are commonly used on low-slope and flat roofs. When installed correctly, single ply membranes can provide excellent protection against weather, UV exposure, and normal rooftop wear.
Metal roofing is a durable option for many commercial and industrial buildings. It performs well in harsh weather and can be a smart long-term investment for owners who want strength, longevity, and low maintenance. Metal roof systems can also support energy-saving goals depending on the design and finish selected.
Energy-efficient roofing can make a real difference in building performance. We install roofing assemblies that help improve thermal performance and reduce heat gain. This can support lower operating costs and help create a more comfortable interior environment. For many projects, insulation layout and roofing material choice play a big role in long-term efficiency.
We believe the best roofing projects come from good planning, clear communication, and disciplined installation. Our process is built to keep projects moving while protecting quality.
We start by reviewing plans, specifications, timelines, and site conditions. This helps us identify the correct roofing assembly, required accessories, and any details that need coordination with other trades. Early planning reduces delays and helps avoid issues later in the build.
We coordinate the roofing system components so that insulation, membrane or metal panels, flashings, edge details, and drainage elements all work together as one complete assembly. A roof is not just a surface layer. It is a full system, and every part matters.
Our crew installs the roofing system according to manufacturer requirements, project specifications, and local building codes. We focus on clean workmanship, accurate detailing, and jobsite professionalism. Critical areas such as penetrations, terminations, transitions, and water-shedding details receive close attention because these are often where future problems begin if the work is rushed.
Before project completion, we review the work to make sure the roof system has been installed correctly and meets project standards. Our goal is to deliver a roof that is ready to perform from day one and hold up over time.
A commercial roof installed during new construction sets the tone for the life of the building. If the installation is done poorly, the owner may deal with leaks, insulation problems, drainage issues, premature failure, and expensive disruptions. If the installation is done right, the building starts with a strong layer of protection and a better chance at long-term performance.
That is why we pay close attention to:

We understand that on a new construction project, timing and coordination matter. Roofing has to fit into the larger schedule, and delays can affect multiple trades. We work hard to stay organized, communicate clearly, and do our part to keep the project on track.
Great Western Roofing brings two decades of hands-on commercial roofing experience to every project. We have completed roofing work on major buildings, including Walmarts in Utah and Wyoming, Daniels Canyon Elementary, and other large-scale commercial properties. That experience gives us a practical understanding of what it takes to deliver consistent results in the field.
We are also Owens & Corning Certified Master Applicators, and we stand behind our workmanship. Customers choose us because they want high standards, reliable service, and a commercial roofing contractor that takes pride in doing the job right.
If you are planning a commercial or industrial building and need a dependable roofing contractor, we are ready to help. At Great Western Roofing, we bring experience, quality, and straight answers to every new construction job. Contact us to discuss your project, review your plans, and get a roofing team that knows how to deliver a roof built to last.
We start by reviewing plans, specs, drainage, curb layouts, and deck details with your builder or project manager. Then we recommend the right system, such as single-ply, metal, or energy-efficient roofing, and provide a clear scope, timeline, and budget.
Once the structure is ready, our crew schedules material delivery, safety setup, and phased installation to match the construction timeline. We install every component to manufacturer standards and Utah code, with daily oversight to keep quality high and delays low.
Before turnover, we complete a full punch-list review, inspect seams, flashing, drainage, and edge metal, and confirm the roof is watertight. We finish with documentation, warranty details, and our workmanship guarantee, so you can move forward with confidence.

Real feedback from commercial clients who count on solid work, clear service, and roofs that last
"Dallin was the contractor from this company who helped me with my project. He is super knowledgeable, professional, and quick in his work and he goes above and beyond to make sure everything is done right. The pricing and quality were great. I will definitely work with him in future projects."
"Great to work with!"
"Bryce was so great to work with! He was quick to respond, quick to get to our house and determine what was wrong and then he quickly made the repair. We highly recommend Great Western Roofing!"
"We called GWR after discovering a leak because they installed our roof in 2007. Dallin responded promptly and came later that afternoon to check out the problem. He was able to fix the issue on the spot... despite having to climb through snow! He invited us to call him in the spring to check for any other issues. I highly recommend Great Western Roofing for any roofing needs."
"I am the Director of Facilities for a nonprofit, six building campus in Salt Lake City. GWR won a public bid on a City grant project to reroof a large apartment building we have on campus. They were incredibly efficient and easy to work with. They did a great job on upgrading our shingles, gutters, and roof ventilation system. I saw firsthand the little details they took to time to ensure were done that can mean the difference between leaks and structural damage over time or not. Dallin and Adam were awesome to work with and extremely friendly and professional. Dallin has since helped us with a few other minor roofing issues across campus and have been my go-to company for roofing/decking needs here. I highly recommend them."
