Goliath and Duro-Last PVC roofing membranes are polyester-reinforced, thermoplastic roofing systems for single-ply roofing applications. They are made of carefully compounded high-quality PVC resin, stabilizers, resilient plasticizers, and other proprietary materials. These membranes are available in 50-mil, 60-mil, and 80-mil thickness. They are also available in different colours, such as tan, white, green, red, brown, and grey.
Here’s why Goliath PVC roofing membrane stands out:
The engineered formulation of Goliath and Duro-Last PVC roofing membranes ensures good resistance to environmental-related damage, especially from microorganisms and exposure to Ozone, UV radiation, strong winds, freeze-thaw cycles, and other extreme weather conditions.
Goliath and Duro-Last PVC roofing membranes have a reflective surface that reduce heat transfer through your roof into the facility’s interior. This helps lower indoor cooling costs, especially during the hot summer months. Note that these flat roofing membranes meet Ontario’s requirements for emissivity and solar reflectance.
Goliath and Duro-Last PVC membranes have a thick, weather-resistant, and heavy-duty top-ply that exceeds Ontario’s requirements for ‘over the scrim thickness.’ They feature an acrylic-based top coating that is resistant to abrasion, allowing you to wash your flat roof without worrying about leaving unsightly scratches on the surface.
At Watertite Roofing, we use Goliath and Duro-Last PVC roofing membranes for new installations, roof recovery, or replacement projects. The membranes can be attached mechanically or adhered to a carefully prepared substrate using approved membrane plates, fasteners, or adhesives.
For other roofing materials needed on the roof, we work with a variety of trusted suppliers to ensure quality and durability. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation.

Often, commercial or industrial property owners planning to install flat roofs worry about improper drainage. After all, a flat roof may not drain rainwater as easily as a pitched roof. At Watertite Roofing, we understand that poor flat roof drainage can lead to ice accumulation, ponding water, and eventual damage. That’s why we offer high-quality installations wit consideration to drainage.

Sure, timely repairs and flat roof coatings can extend the lifespan of your building’s roof. Even with proper maintenance, you’ll need a new roof once the current one reaches the end of its useful life. Waiting for too long may cost you a lot of money in terms of repairs or damage to the items within the building. Here are the signs you need to replace your roof:
Persistent leaks even after patch jobs: The water and excess moisture may seep into the insulation, roof deck, and drywall. This can lead to extensive rot and structural damage. Timely replacement may allow our team to retrofit the new roofing membrane if the deck is still in good condition.
Visible and extensive damage to the membrane: Significant cracks, soft spots, blisters, and torn sections are all signs that your existing roofing membrane can’t protect your building like it once did. Replacing it can prevent damage to the deck and the rest of your building.
Your roof has reached the end of its service life: Most flat roofs for commercial and industrial buildings last 15 to 30 years, depending on the roof type, installation quality, and maintenance. If your commercial or industrial facility’s roof is pushing past that limit, it’s time to replace it.
We specialize in repairing and replacing skylights on flat roofs, ensuring they are properly sealed and functioning to prevent leaks and energy loss. Whether your skylight is damaged, outdated, or inefficient, our team can restore or upgrade it to maintain your roof’s integrity and your building’s comfort.
Prevent costly repairs and extend the lifespan of your roof with our preventive maintenance services. At Watertite Roofing, we understand that your roof protects your building from harsh weather elements. Our routine roof maintenance services allow you to stay a step ahead of potential leaks, decay, and other forms of roof damage.
During each scheduled roof inspection, our team carefully assesses each aspect of your roof to identify the earliest signs of damage. Therefore, regular maintenance allows for early detection of potential roof leaks. Timely and effective repairs can prevent further damage that could eventually compromise your property’s structural integrity.
The cost of commercial flat roof services, such as installations, repairs, and replacements, on average ranges from $6 to $20 per square foot. This cost depends on the roof type, chosen materials, labour, and the scope of your project. Therefore, you should request a detailed quotation to get accurate information on your project’s cost and timeline. Here are the cost aspects you should pay attention to.
Commercial roofs are prone to certain roof issues than the low-slope or pitched roofs. Some of these issues include blistering membranes, leaks, water ponding, flashing damage, splitting, cracking, and membrane damage. Depending on the nature and extent of damage, your roof may require minor, moderate, or major repairs.
Minor repairs involve patching up minor leaks or other signs of minor damage. Moderate repairs, on the other hand, may involve fixing damage to the flashing or membrane. Major flat roof repairs are complex and are required in case of extensive water or moisture damage, replacing a significant part of your flat roof, or fixing significant blistering. Here are the estimated costs of commercial roof repairs. These costs are estimates and may vary:
| Nature of Repairs | Estimated Cost |
| Minor repairs | $300 to $1,000 |
| Moderate repairs | $1,000 to $2,500 or higher |
| Major repairs | $2,500 to $5,000 or more. |
Installing, repairing, or replacing a flat roof on a 2,000 square foot facility costs less than a similar service for a 20,000 square foot industrial flat roof. A large roof requires more materials and labour hours. While the cost per square foot may not vary widely, the size of your roof can increase the total cost of your roofing project significantly.
The specific type of materials you choose for your flat roof will also influence the total cost of your project. Some materials, such as Asphalt & Gravel, are costlier than others. For instance, the cost of Asphalt & Gravel roofing is $10 to $25 per square foot, while that of EPDM (rubber roofing) ranges from $5 to $16 per square foot. Modified bitumen costs $7 to $20 per square foot while high performing PVC roofing systems costs $6 to $20. Prices are estimates and may vary based on project specifics, location, and contractor.
The cost of labour varies widely depending on the roofing contractor, location, and more. In cities like Toronto, the cost of living is higher, which also means the cost of labour is high. Request a free, no obligation quotation and we’ll provide a comprehensive total project cost, so you know exactly what to expect without any hidden fees.
Whether you’re dealing with sudden roof leaks or an old, deteriorating flat roof, our roofing solutions can help fix it. Each project begins with a thorough inspection to determine if there’s any form of damage to the drainage system, penetrations, decking, flashing, and other parts of your roof.

Learn moreWhen it comes to flat roofing, many people think it’s just about the surface. However, a well-installed flat roof requires a more comprehensive approach – one that considers the entire roof envelope. This includes all the interconnected components that work together to protect the building from the elements, such as weather, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Recently, we had the opportunity to apply this expertise to a well-known local business – a McDonald’s restaurant.
