Jonesboro is the county seat of Craighead County and, as the Encyclopedia of Arkansas puts it, a regional hub for the food-processing industry and an agricultural center, with Arkansas State University and St. Bernards Medical Center among its largest employers. With the highways that serve the city and an economy that spans industry, education and healthcare, Jonesboro keeps a steady mix of warehouses, processing plants, shops, offices, medical buildings, schools, churches and public buildings in use, and every one of them depends on a roof that stays dry.
Commercial Roofing Rana helps Jonesboro property owners and facility managers protect those roofs. We inspect the roof, explain what we find in plain language and recommend the repair, coating or replacement that fits your building and your budget. We are based in Memphis, and we schedule free inspections for Jonesboro properties on request.
Heat, sun, heavy rain and strong wind are hard on any commercial roof. On April 27, 2011, the National Weather Service in Memphis surveyed an EF-0 tornado about 5 miles south of Jonesboro with estimated peak winds of 75 mph that caused partial roof damage to a business office building. Strong winds can lift edges and loosen fasteners, while smaller wind events do quieter damage that is hard to see from the ground. Heat and sun wear down membranes and sealants, and heavy rain finds weak seams, failed flashing and clogged drains.
Jonesboro’s roofs fall into a few groups. Older buildings in established parts of town often carry roofs that have been patched over the years. Newer shops, offices and medical buildings usually have low-slope membrane roofs, and warehouses, processing plants and other industrial buildings add large flat or metal roofs. Churches and schools often have steep slope roofs. Older roofs of every type deserve a close look.
Many warehouses, shops and offices have low-slope roofs, and flat roofing is what we do every day.
New life for older metal buildings, with a new system installed over the existing structure.
A new metal roof installed over your existing roof, which avoids a full tear-off.
The edges, curbs, walls and penetrations where leaks usually start, sealed so water stays out.
Repair or replacement of damaged or rotted roof decking so the new roof sits on a solid base.
Durable steep slope roofing systems for commercial and institutional buildings.
The right system depends on your building, budget and how long you plan to own it. We install TPO, PVC, flat roofing systems, metal roofing, steep slope roofing and tile roofing. Duro-Tech TPO is a popular choice for large, low-slope roofs because it reflects heat and goes down in large, factory-made sections with fewer field seams.
Wide, low-slope roofs where a leak can put stock and operations at risk.
Processing and storage buildings where a dry roof protects product and production.
Large roofs over production areas, where a leak can stop work.
Roofs that protect tenants, shoppers and inventory.
Roof work scheduled to keep your staff and patients undisturbed.
Dependable roofs for classrooms, gyms and facilities that serve students.
Long-lasting steep slope and low-slope roofs for buildings the congregation depends on.
Aging roofs that need careful inspection and repair that fits the building.
Dependable roofs for public spaces and civic facilities in a county seat.
We serve Jonesboro and Craighead County, along with nearby communities across northeast Arkansas, the Memphis area and the wider Mid-South.

Commercial Roofing Rana is based in Memphis. We schedule free inspections in Jonesboro and across Craighead County.
Cost depends on the size of the roof, the system you choose, the condition of the deck and how easy the building is to reach. A free inspection is the fastest way to get a price based on your actual roof.
Repair usually makes sense when damage is limited and the rest of the roof is sound. Replacement is the better choice when leaks keep coming back, insulation is wet or the roof is near the end of its life. We will tell you which one applies.
