Preferred Roofing Remains Your Northeast Ohio Roofing Partner

Serving commercial roofing clients across Northeast Ohio from our Cleveland-area operations, including Akron, Canton, and Youngstown. Our team supports projects throughout the region, traveling where needed to deliver dependable commercial roofing services for businesses, industrial facilities, and large-scale properties.

Our local team is ready to serve you with the same trusted expertise and commitment you’ve come to expect from Preferred Roofing—now backed by the added strength and national resources of Nations Roof.

Comprehensive Experience in All Types of Roofing

We install over 2.5 million square feet of roofing each year across systems like single-ply, built-up, green roofing, steep slope, and roof terraces. Our team also provides specialty services, including maintenance, restoration, and repairs, to extend the life of every roof.

Board Insulations
Provide roofing systems with thermal resistance value, protect the roofing membrane by acting as a separator from a structure’s rough surface; or, in re-roofing the board may act as a new base for a new roofing membrane (re-cover).
Single-Ply Roofing
Single Ply Membrane Roofing (low-slope applications) provides excellent detailing components for roofs with many penetrations. They have the versatility for quality tie-ins to different surfacing, or odd shapes.
Built-Up Roofing
Where pedestrian traffic is high, a BUR roof system has no equal. A BUR roofing membrane is constructed on the roof by combining layers of materials (roll goods) together and in their total they act as the roofing membrane.
Green Roofing
Garden Roofs are cool, but "Cool Roofs" have been green roofing’s huge step forward in the area of solar reflectivity, reducing radiant heating.
Steep Slope
Whether it an asphalt shingle or a ceramic tile, shingles, slate and tile applications are shedding systems not waterproofing systems.
Roof Terraces
Pavers add functionality and beauty to roof spaces while pedestal roof terraces offer water navigation underneath as well as leveling.
Specialty Services
We offer a wide range of services such as pressure washing, upkeep like tightening fasteners as well as complete restoration and repair.
