Golem Roofing completed a multi-unit apartment building roof replacement project in Los Angeles, CA. Multi-unit and commercial buildings present unique roofing challenges: tenant coordination, noise scheduling, debris management, multiple roof levels, and compliance with California building codes including Title 24 energy requirements. Many commercial buildings use a combination of TPO membrane on flat sections and architectural shingles on sloped sections. All commercial roof replacements in Long Beach and the South Bay require building permits and city inspections.

Commercial Roofing Considerations
- Tenant Impact: Work should be scheduled in sections to minimize noise and disruption to individual units
- Permits Required: Commercial roof replacements require building permits and must pass city inspection
- Title 24 Compliance: California energy code requires cool-roof materials on certain commercial buildings — white TPO meets these requirements
- Safety Requirements: OSHA regulations for multi-story work include fall protection, guardrail systems, and safety netting requirements
