A 37,500 SF Logistics Roof in the Inland Empire
TAL International operates a 37,500-square-foot warehouse in Ontario, in the heart of the Inland Empire’s logistics belt where freight stages before moving across the country. Years of intense inland sun had cooked the building’s built-up roof: the granular cap sheet had lost its reflectivity, the asphalt had dried and cracked, and split flashings and equipment curbs were letting water reach stored goods.
Heat, Scale, and the Case for Restoration
Ontario summers are punishing, which makes two things true at once. A dark, spent roof drives enormous cooling costs, and a 37,500-square-foot tear-off is a massive, expensive, disruptive undertaking, quoted here at two to three times the price of a restoration. With the deck structurally sound, HP Roofing Pro recommended a reflective acrylic restoration that tackles both problems in a single pass.
A Cool Roof Built for Inland Heat
We applied a fluid-applied acrylic system across the full 37,500 square feet, sealing the roof into one continuous waterproof membrane while the warehouse kept running. The bright white, highly reflective finish earns its keep in Ontario’s climate, pushing back the inland heat that runs up HVAC bills while protecting the freight below. TAL International ended up with a warrantied, energy-smart roof for a fraction of replacement cost.
