Commercial and residential roofing are similar in that they both require seasoned professionals to perform quality work. However, unlike the more straightforward approach of residential roofing, commercial roofing projects can be lengthy and complex. In our experience, there are dozens of factors that must be considered when completing a commercial roof project.
In South Carolina, commercial roof repair must account for rooftop HVAC systems, external utilities, external piping, the type of commercial roof, and much more. Because commercial roofing structures vary in design and complexity, even common tasks like leak repairs become more difficult. Whether you need a commercial roof inspection or a total roof replacement, your contractors must be highly trained and follow best practices specific to commercial roofing, not just residential. At Hixon's, our commercial roofing contractors have years of experience and training for commercial property needs.
Like the residential side of our business, we have completed hundreds of commercial roofing contracts in South Carolina. We know exactly what it takes to inspect, repair, or replace your commercial roofing structure. When business owners in South Carolina need roof repairs, they come to Hixon's Roofing because they know we will get the job done right the first time. They know our commercial roof technicians are friendly, dependable, hold the highest qualifications in the industry. That way, they can accomplish any commercial roofing project, no matter how small or big. We're talking roof repairs for small offices to roof replacements on large commercial campuses.
Don't settle for average roofing contractors if you're starting a commercial roofing project. Commercial roofing services are an investment, and you need to get your money's worth. Hixon's Roofing & Construction is here to earn your trust by exceeding your expectations with any commercial roofing job you have.
A safe and well-maintained roof is a vital component of any building's structural integrity, and that's why the importance of commercial roof repair is so high. A well-built roof protects the building's interior from severe weather and even helps with fire prevention. A variety of problems can plague your roof's health such as standing water, blisters, and gaps in flashing. It's imperative to keep up with minor repairs now so that massive problems don't cause financial issues later.
A few benefits of hiring Hixon's for your commercial roof repair include:
This benefit sounds like a no-brainer, but it deserves to be highlighted because of how important it is. Your safety and your customers' safety are crucial when you own a commercial property.
Hiring trained, licensed commercial roofing experts keeps you safe by:
Having a functional, well-maintained roof that works properly, 24/7. When your commercial roof is in good shape and working correctly, you and your customers are much safer.
Commercial roof repair is a dangerous job for a novice. A quick search online will bring up dozens of cases in South Carolina where DIYers have injured themselves trying to repair their commercial property.
Here at Hixon's commercial roof repair, we often speak to entrepreneurs who list their budget as the biggest reason why roof repair is low on their "to-do" list. That stance is understandable, but we believe quality commercial roofing maintenance actually boosts your bottom line over time. The truth is regular roof inspections uncover minor repair issues before they turn into budget busters.
Hiring Hixon's for your commercial roof repair is usually more affordable than dealing with a huge issue down the road. Plus, commercial roof maintenance extends the life of your roof, which can help you avoid replacing your roof much longer than you would without proper maintenance.
Many commercial property owners are concerned about liability, and rightfully so. A roof that has not been maintained for long periods of time can cause physical harm. You may be financially responsible if someone is hurt because your roof is in disrepair.
Hiring a qualified team of commercial roofers in South Carolina lets you get a detailed assessment of your roof's condition. That way, you can take the necessary steps to protect your customers, your building, and ultimately, your business.
Unsurprisingly, most commercial roof warranties require that owners prove that their roof has had regular maintenance prior to paying repairs. Commercial roof repair in South Carolina can be costly, and it's frustrating to fork out money for repairs that should be covered under your warranty.
Fortunately, you can avoid fiascos like these by maintaining a regular roof inspection schedule from Hixon's Roofing. That way, you will have the proof needed to provide to your insurance agency if you must file a claim.
A functional, well-maintained roof is a crucial component of any commercial building's structural integrity. When properly maintained, your commercial roof will protect you from the elements and add an aesthetically aura to your building. When properly maintained, your commercial roof will protect you from the elements and add an aesthetical aura to your building. However, when you fail to maintain your roof, a variety of problems can occur. Keep your eye out for the following signs that your commercial roof needs repair.
Standing water can have incredibly adverse effects on your commercial roofing system. It can cause leaks that deteriorate your roof's integrity, which leads to water intrusion. When water intrudes your commercial building, it can cause a litany of health hazards like mold and bacteria. When you spot standing water on your roof, your roof's support system may be seriously compromised, especially with wooden materials.
Commercial roofs are made with materials meant for outdoor conditions, but too much heat or moisture can cause a blistering effect that allows moisture to seep in and weaken your roof's structure. When this happens, your roof ages prematurely, thereby reducing its ability to protect you and your customers or tenants.
Having a functional drainage system is paramount to the health of your commercial roof. If scuppers or drains are clogged with waste and debris, water pools on your roof, which will eventually make its way inside. Gaps in flashing can also cause water to permeate the building. Additionally, cracks and worn seams give water access inside. Keep a sharp eye out for signs of clogged drains and gaps in your roof's flashing. If you notice these signs, call Hixon's commercial roof repair as soon as possible.
Let's be honest: replacing your businesses' roof is no small task. Regular maintenance and care can go a long way in extending the life of your commercial roof, but with enough time, even the best roofs will need to be replaced. When it does, you need to be able to work with a team of professionals who understand the nuances of commercial roof replacement. When it comes to the highest quality roof replacement, look no further than Hixon's Roofing & Construction.

AMHERST, Mass. - The University of Massachusetts men's basketball team continues Atlantic 10 play on Saturday at George Washington in a nationally televised contest. The Minutemen and Colonials tip off at 2 p.m. on USA Network from the Charles E. Smith Center.
He's THAT Dude Noah Fernandes poured in a season-high 26 points to go along with seven assists and four rebounds in the win over Saint Louis. In his last game against George Washington in the A-10 Tournament, Fernandes scored a career-high 29 points on 11 field goals made to go along with a career-best seven steals in the second round win.
Not Up In Here Tafara Gapare blocked a career-high five shots in Wednesday's win over Saint Louis to rank tied for most by a player in the Atlantic 10 this season. Gapare and teammate Wildens Leveque are two of seven players in the Atlantic 10 with five blocks in a single contest.
Still Dre Dyondre Dominguez has been one of the most efficient players in the Atlantic 10 this season and ranks fourth in the league in field goal percentage at just under 62-percent. Dominguez adds a 38-percent mark from 3-point range while shooting 82-percent from the free throw line. The forward averages 8.6 points per game in 16.2 minutes per night.
Bench Boost UMass ranks seventh in the country and leads the Atlantic 10 in bench points per game at 33.2. The Minutemen reserves are led by 8.6 points per game from Dyondre Dominguez and 8.4 by RJ Luis.
Approaching 300 Head coach Frank Martin is two wins away from reaching 300 for his collegiate coaching career. The 16-year college head coach won 171 games in 10 seasons at South Carolina and recorded 117 victories in five seasons at Kansas State. Martin holds a collegiate coaching record of 298-205 (.592).
Series vs. George Washington Saturday's game marks the 76th all-time meeting between the Minutemen and Colonials. George Washington leads the all-time series 45-30 with UMass winning the last meeting 99-88 in last season's A-10 Tournament.
Kante's Double-Doubles Isaac Kante has recorded 21 career double-doubles to rank 34th among active DI leaders while his 778 career rebounds ranks 31st among active players. Kante recorded his first UMass double-double on the road at St. Bonaventure with a 12-point, 10-rebound performance.
A Win Would… A win on Saturday would mark the first time since the 2013-14 that UMass has recorded a road win at George Washington. The Minutemen picked up a 67-61 win over the Colonials on Feb. 15, 2014.
On The Offensive Glass UMass ranks third in the A-10 and 39th nationally in offensive rebounds per game at 12.6 per contest. Matt Cross leads the Minutemen in rebounding per game at 6.4 as part of six players who average 3.9 or more rebounds.

Vince McMahon is rejoining the board of WWE several months after he retired from the sports entertainment company during an investigation into alleged misconduct.
WWE said Friday that McMahon, the founder and majority shareholder of WWE, would return as executive chairman. It also announced a board shakeup.
Shares surged more than 22%.
McMahon retired as WWE's chairman and CEO in July. He had stepped down temporarily from the posts a month earlier. The Wall Street Journal reported over the summer that McMahon agreed to pay more than $12 million over the past 16 years to suppress allegations of sexual misconduct and infidelity.
The Stamford, Connecticut, company said Friday that it would be looking at "all strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value."
There have been rumors that WWE may be interested in selling the organization to another entertainment company.
McMahon appeared to address that possibility in a letter to the board, dated Dec. 20, but published Friday.
"I believe WWE has a unique opportunity during this critical juncture to maximize value for its shareholders and all other stakeholders," McMahon wrote. "Specifically, given the rapidly evolving media landscape in which more and more companies are seeking to own the intellectual property offered on their streaming platforms – I firmly believe that the best thing to do for all of WWE's shareholders and other stakeholders is to undertake a comprehensive review of strategic alternatives."
The company said in early November that an investigation of a special committee formed to look into the misconduct allegations was completed and that the committee was disbanded.
The company on Friday did not immediately return requests from The Associated Press seeking details about the findings of that committee. It did say at the time that the company was implementing some of the suggestions of the committee.
McMahon's return coincides with the airing of some of WWE's biggest premium live events of the year. The Royal Rumble takes place this month in Texas, while Wrestlemania, a two-day event, begins in April.
McMahon said in a prepared statement that he doesn't intend for his return to have any impact on the roles, duties or responsibilities of WWE's existing management team. His daughter, Stephanie McMahon, serves as co-CEO, along with Nick Khan. McMahon's son-in-law, Paul Levesque, who wrestled under the name Triple H, serves as chief content officer.
McMahon controlled a majority of company shares even after his retirement, giving him the power to engineer a board shakeup upon his return. Three board members, JoEllen Lyons Dillon, Jeffrey R. Speed and Alan M. Wexler, were ousted to make room for McMahon and two other board members, Michelle Wilson and George Barrios.
Vince McMahon has been among the most recognizable faces at WWE for decades.
When he purchased what was then the World Wrestling Federation from his father in 1982, wrestling matches took place at small venues and appeared on local cable channels.
WWE matches are now held in professional sports stadiums and the company has a sizeable overseas following.
The organization underwent a seismic transformation under McMahon with events like WrestleMania, a premium live production that draws millions of fervent viewers.
Revenue in 2021 exceeded $1 billion for the first time and the company has television deals with Fox and NBCUniversal. It announced a multi-year expansion of its original programming partnership with A&E in May 2022.
WWE stars have become crossover sensations, including Hulk Hogan, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and John Cena.

WASHINGTON, Utah, Jan. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Yaw Ababio Boateng, MD, Ph.D., FACP, is being recognized by Continental Who's Who as a Trusted Nephrologist for his exemplary work in the Medical field and his praiseworthy contributions to the healthcare communities at University of Utah Health, St. George Regional Hospital, Dixie Kidney Clinic, Hurricane Dialysis and Kidney Clinic, Iron Mission Kidney Clinic and Mojave Desert Dialysis and Kidney Clinic.
A seasoned nephrologist with 23 years of experience in nephrology practice and 39 years as a physician, Dr. Boateng is affiliated with University of Utah Health. He sees patients at University of Utah Dixie Kidney Clinic in St. George, UT, Iron Mission Kidney Clinic in Cedar City, UT, Hurricane Dialysis and Kidney Clinic in Hurricane, UT. and Mojave Desert Dialysis and Kidney Clinic in Mesquite, NV. He is Medical Director of Davita Mojave Desert Dialysis Center and Davita Hurricane Dialysis Center.

He is a Fellow of the American College of Physicians (FACP), and is board-certified in nephrology and internal medicine by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM). The ABIM is a physician-led non-profit independent evaluation organization driven by doctors who want to achieve higher standards for better care in a rapidly changing world. The doctor is also a member of the American Society of Nephrology.
Dr. Boateng currently serves as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of Utah. He is a published author in peer-reviewed scientific publications, including the British Journal of Pharmacology, the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, and the European Journal of Urology and Nephrology. The doctor is also an author of children's books and has published three titles with Heinemann International. He recently published a paperback and ebook on Chronic Kidney Disease: "Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease- How to improve kidney function and avoid dialysis". It is available on Amazon.
In light of this recognition, Dr. Boateng wishes to honor the loving memory of his father, Stephen Oti-Boateng. On a personal note, the doctor has been married to Mrs. Cecilia Boateng for 39 years. They have three children. He also would like to acknowledge the guidance of his mentor, Jinil Yoo, MD, professor of Medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, and the continual blessings of Almighty God.
