Commercial Roofing in Round Rock, TX

Roofs and walls for plants, labs and flex space north of Austin

Roofing Contractors Association of Texas member

North Austin on I-35

Envelopes for controlled interiors

In Round Rock, Total Cladding and Roofing delivers commercial roofing and cladding for manufacturing plants, technology buildings, labs and flex space on the I-35 corridor north of Austin. Many of these buildings hold processes, equipment or tenants that need a steady indoor climate, so we design the roof and walls as one insulated, airtight envelope.

That approach comes from more than 20 years of commercial roofing and from the European way of specifying a building envelope, where panels, insulation, joints and weatherproofing are detailed together. On a Round Rock building, the survey tells us which parts of the existing envelope can stay and which need replacing.

More Ways We Can Help

Round Rock on both sides of the escarpment

Most of Round Rock is in Williamson County, and its southern edge reaches into Travis County. I-35 runs through the middle of the city, SH 45 crosses it on the south side, US 79 heads east from the interstate, and the SH 130 toll road runs to the east. Industrial, flex and warehouse buildings sit near I-35, along SH 45 and close to the US 79 junction.

The city straddles the Balcones Escarpment. East of I-35 the ground is flat prairie, to the west it turns hilly and rocky, and Brushy Creek runs through the city. The buildings we look at here range from single-story plants and multi-tenant flex buildings to offices and distribution space.

Controlled interiors start with the envelope

Manufacturing, technology and life science buildings share one demand: the inside has to hold a set temperature and humidity whatever the weather does outside. Insulated metal panels suit that brief, because each panel arrives with its insulation bonded in, interlocking joints that seal against air, and a clean metal face for the room inside.

We hold installer certification from Kingspan and from AWIP. On a lab or clean production space we detail the panel joints, the roof-to-wall junction and every opening so the air barrier runs unbroken, because a controlled room is only as tight as its weakest seal. Our Kingspan insulated panel page and insulated metal panels in Austin cover the systems in more depth.

Large low-slope roofs over production

Plants and flex buildings off I-35 often sit under broad low-slope roofs crowded with exhaust fans, air handlers and process piping. On those roofs we install TPO: seams and flashings are heat-welded into one continuous sheet, and a white membrane stops the roof from adding heat to a building that already makes plenty of its own.

Where a production line or clean area sits below, we plan the roof in sections small enough to open and close in a day, and we agree with your facilities team which zones are worked when. A recover over a dry existing roof keeps the interior covered throughout, while a wet roof comes off first.

Four systems for Round Rock buildings

Retrofit Over Production

Metal roof retrofit sets sub-purlins over a tired metal or low-slope roof, carries a new sloped metal roof on them, fills the new cavity with insulation and leaves the old roof in place, so production carries on underneath.

TPO for Equipment-Heavy Roofs

TPO roofing for the large low-slope roofs on plants, flex buildings and offices: new roofs for general contractors, full replacements and recovers, with every seam and flashing heat-welded and walkway pads laid to each unit.

R-Panel for Support Buildings

R-panel roofs and walls for warehouses, shops and support buildings that do not need tight climate control: exposed-fastener PBR panels from MBCI or Morin, both brands we hold installer certification for, or R-panel systems built to our own specification.

Insulated Panels for Labs

Insulated metal panels for labs, clean production and conditioned space: Kingspan or AWIP panels on roofs and walls that insulate, seal and finish the building in one installation, on new builds and refurbishments alike.

Wind at the edges, hail across the field

Spring storms bring both hail and strong wind to Round Rock, and each tests a different part of the roof. Wind lifts hardest at corners and perimeters, while hail falls across the whole field of the roof.

We design for both. Edge metal, perimeter fastening and panel clips are sized for the corner and edge zones rather than for the middle of the roof. Against hail, a firm cover board under TPO and a heavier outer skin on metal panels limit the damage. No roof is hail-proof, and we never sell one as if it were.

Coating the metal you already have

Not every building in Round Rock is new. Shops, storage buildings and older warehouses with sound panels but a chalked finish, rusting fasteners and stained laps are candidates for a protective metal roof coating. We are certified to install Sika and American WeatherStar systems, and we treat every fastener, lap and cut edge before the main coat goes on.

When the survey finds perforated panels or rusted purlins, a coating would only hide the problem, and we recommend a retrofit or new panels instead.

Working inside a live operation

Plants and labs rarely stop for a roof. Before work starts we agree crane positions, delivery times, work zones and protection with your facility manager, and we plan dust and noise around the rooms that cannot take them. When wall panels are replaced, we agree with you how each area stays enclosed before any old cladding comes off.

On new buildings we work for the general contractor, review the panel layout and roof drawings early, and coordinate roof curbs, wall openings and the eave detail with the other trades before anything is ordered.

Round Rock and the towns around it

Our Bulverde office is about an hour and 40 minutes from Round Rock on a typical drive, so we book surveys and site meetings in advance and cover the roof, walls and drainage in one visit. The same team handles commercial roofing in Pflugerville to the southeast and commercial roofing in Georgetown up I-35.

For everything we do in the wider metro, see our Austin commercial roofing page. To start, share the address, a few photos, drawings if you have them and the temperatures or conditions your building has to hold.

Frequently asked questions

Commercial Roofing in Round Rock, TX FAQs

Is Round Rock within your Austin-area work?

Yes. Our Bulverde team takes on manufacturing, technology, lab, flex, office and warehouse buildings in Round Rock. We survey the roof and walls as they stand before recommending a system or a price.

Which system suits a lab or clean production building in Round Rock?

Insulated metal panels on the walls, and often on the roof, because one panel delivers the insulation, the air seal and the interior finish together. Where the roof is low-slope and carries heavy equipment, we pair panel walls with a TPO roof and detail the junction between them.

Is there an insulated metal panel installer near me in Round Rock?

Yes. We fit Kingspan and AWIP panels, both brands we are certified for, on new builds and refurbishments in Round Rock. Send drawings or photos and the conditions the space has to hold, and we will arrange a survey.

Can you replace wall panels without shutting down production?

In most cases, yes. We replace panels in sections and agree with your team, before work starts, how each area is kept enclosed and when dusty or noisy work can happen. Production carries on behind the protection we have agreed.

Should our large low-slope roof be TPO or a metal retrofit?

If the roof drains reasonably well and carries a lot of equipment, TPO is usually the better fit. If it ponds water after heavy rain or the building needs more insulation, a framed metal retrofit adds slope and an insulated cavity without a tear-off.

Do you cover buildings along SH 45 and US 79?

Yes. We work on buildings near the I-35 interchanges with SH 45 and US 79, along the SH 130 side of the metro, and in the neighboring towns of Pflugerville and Georgetown. One team handles the roof, walls and drainage.

How do you plan a roof for Round Rock hail and wind?

We fasten corners and perimeters for the higher wind loads they carry, use a firm cover board under TPO, and settle panel gauge and profile with you before ordering metal. These choices limit damage. We do not describe any roof as hail-proof.

Can an older metal building in Round Rock be coated instead of replaced?

If the panels are sound and the trouble is chalking, rusting fasteners and stained laps, yes. We treat the rust, laps and cut edges, then apply a Sika or American WeatherStar system. Rusted-through panels need a retrofit or new metal instead.

Do you work with general contractors on new Round Rock buildings?

Yes. We price and install the roof and wall package, review panel layouts and roof drawings early, and coordinate curbs, openings and the eave detail with the other trades so nothing is cut in after the panels arrive.

What should we send before a survey?

Send the site address, recent roof and wall photos, drawings if available, the existing roof system and what goes on inside. For controlled spaces, add the temperature and humidity you need to hold. Call (210) 775-0995 or use the contact form.
