Hail of 1 inch or more fell on 66 days near Lubbock between 2014 and June 2026, higher than 96% of the cities we cover. 18 local roofers are listed, 5 license-checked.
Commercial roofing covers retail, office, warehouse, church and multi-family buildings. Most of these roofs are flat or low-slope and use single-ply membranes, modified bitumen, built-up roofing or standing seam metal.
Crews, materials and warranties differ from house roofing. A company that is good on shingles may not be the right one for a membrane roof.
Hail of 1 inch or more has fallen near Lubbock on more days than in most cities we cover. Membranes can be punctured by hail, so ask for an inspection after a hail day, with core samples if the insulation may be wet.
Wind gusts of 58 mph or more are recorded near Lubbock on more days than in most cities we cover. On a membrane roof, ask how edges and parapets are anchored, because wind starts at the perimeter.

A commercial roof is priced by the building: its area, membrane, insulation, drainage and rooftop equipment. One range per city would mislead.
Ask each company for a written scope and a price per square foot of roof, so bids can be compared line by line.
Estimates for a 2,000 square foot roof, not quotes. How we build them6 of 18 listed, license-checked first. They are based in Lubbock (6). We do not tag companies by service, so ask each one about commercial roofing.
