Hammond Premium Roofing provides professional flat and low-slope roofing in Hammond, IN for residential and commercial properties across the Calumet Region. Low-slope work in Hammond is mostly residential, and that surprises people. Rear kitchen additions, back porches, dormer decks and second-floor sun rooms on older houses all carry a small membrane roof, and those little roofs cause more interior damage per square foot than anything else we touch.
Drainage is the whole game, and deposit is what ruins it. Grit washes down the sloped roof above, lands on the flat one below, and builds a berm at the low edge and around every drain and scupper. Water that should leave in minutes then stands for days, and a membrane that would have lasted twenty years starts failing at the seams in eight. The berm is the failure, not the membrane.
We design for that rather than pretending it away. Oversized outlets, cast strainers instead of plastic domes, tapered polyisocyanurate that moves water toward the drain rather than trusting the original framing to do it, and a written twice-yearly clearing schedule you can run yourself with a hose and a bucket in half an hour. We walk you through it once so you are not paying us twice a year.
We argue against ballasted systems on these roofs. River rock hides the membrane, traps the grit coming down from above, and turns a leak search into an afternoon of shoveling before anyone can even look. Mechanically attached or fully adhered single-ply gives you a surface you can actually inspect, and on a small residential roof that matters more than the price difference. Rock is cheap until you need to find a leak under it.
Recovering an existing low-slope roof is fine when the insulation underneath is dry, and only then. We take a core cut, hand you the core, and let you see the layers for yourself rather than describing them. Wet insulation gets torn off no matter what that does to the number, because a recover over saturated board is a two-year roof sold as a twenty-year one. We photograph the core next to a tape measure.
On porch and addition roofs we run self-adhered base flashing up the wall and tuck it behind the siding, instead of stopping it in a bead of sealant on the face. That termination is the single most common leak we find on a Hammond back porch, and it is the reason so many of these roofs get replaced twice before somebody fixes the actual problem. Ask any bidder where the base flashing terminates before you sign.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — aluminum-substrate standing seam with a PVDF finish, copper-bearing shingle granules, low-pressure roof washing with a neutral detergent, coating adhesion patches pulled at seventy-two hours, tempered glass skylight units set on site-built curbs, 0.032 aluminum drip edge and valley pan — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Hammond and nearby communities including Munster, Highland, Griffith, Whiting.

Materials, equipment and how we do flat and low-slope roofing
The difference between flat and low-slope roofing that lasts and flat and low-slope roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with aluminum-substrate standing seam with a PVDF finish, copper-bearing shingle granules, low-pressure roof washing with a neutral detergent, coating adhesion patches pulled at seventy-two hours, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Hammond job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Calumet Region means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Hammond Chooses Hammond Premium Roofing
- ✓We wash a test area before we judge a roof, because reading granule loss or bruising through settled industrial deposit is guesswork and guesswork replaces roofs five years early.
- ✓We read the finish warranty's exclusion clause out loud before you buy a metal roof, since the premium coatings exclude locations exposed to fallout, ash and corrosive fumes.
- ✓Every exposed component we install is aluminum rather than steel, and we will show you the corroded steel we pulled off the last house instead of arguing the point.
- ✓Replacement decking is priced at a signed rate per sheet before anybody starts the tear-off, which matters on a stock where most houses predate modern sheathing panels.

If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
