Karma Automotive Headquarters Roofing Project

Single Ply Roofing Experts completed a 94,000-square-foot commercial roof demolition and re-roof at Karma Automotive Headquarters in Irvine, CA. The large, multi-section roof required extensive removal, precise installation, and careful detailing around rooftop equipment, penetrations, drainage areas, parapets, and changing roof elevations.

Overview

94,000 Sq. Ft. Commercial Roof Replacement at Karma Automotive Headquarters in Irvine, CA

At 94,000 square feet, the roof at Karma Automotive Headquarters is not one simple surface. It is an expansive commercial roofing system made up of multiple roof sections, equipment zones, perimeter edges, drainage points, penetrations, and transitions that all have to perform together.

Single Ply Roofing Experts completed a full roof demolition and re-roof in Irvine, California, removing the existing roofing materials across the commercial facility before installing a new roofing system throughout the property.

The scale of the building made attention to detail especially important. Aerial views of the completed project reveal dozens of rooftop components spread across the roof, each requiring careful integration into the surrounding roofing system. From the large open roof fields to the tighter areas around mechanical equipment and changing elevations, the project demanded a coordinated approach from demolition through final installation.

The result is a clean, renewed commercial roof spanning the Karma Automotive Headquarters and a strong example of the planning and precision required for large-scale commercial flat roofing in Irvine and Orange County.

The challenge

Replacing a 94,000-square-foot commercial roof means managing far more than square footage. The Karma Automotive Headquarters roof contains numerous rooftop units, vents, penetrations, curbs, drainage locations, perimeter conditions, parapets, and multiple roof sections. Each interrupts the main roofing field and creates an area that must be carefully addressed during demolition and re-roofing. The existing roofing materials also had to be removed across a large operational commercial property before the new roofing system could be installed. That required the project to move systematically from section to section while maintaining control over demolition, exposed areas, material handling, and installation. On a roof this large, consistency matters. A detail that appears small compared with 94,000 square feet can still become critical to the performance of the entire roof. The challenge was therefore not simply to replace a roof. It was to execute a large commercial re-roof in Irvine while treating every transition, penetration, drainage point, and rooftop condition as part of one complete roofing system.

The solution

Single Ply Roofing Experts carried out a full roof demolition and commercial re-roof, removing the existing roofing materials and rebuilding the roof coverage across the Karma Automotive Headquarters facility. Work progressed across the building's different roof sections, with close attention given to the conditions that make large commercial roofs complex: rooftop mechanical equipment, penetrations, perimeter edges, drainage areas, parapets, and transitions between roof elevations. The wide roof fields required consistent installation across thousands of square feet, while equipment-heavy areas demanded more detailed work around individual rooftop components. Treating those areas as part of the complete waterproofing strategy helped create a continuous finished roofing surface across the property. Aerial photography of the completed project shows the scale of the transformation clearly: a bright, uniform roof now extends across the sprawling Irvine facility, with the roofing system carefully worked around the many rooftop elements that define the building. For commercial property owners and facility managers, the Karma Automotive Headquarters project demonstrates what a major commercial roof replacement in Irvine, CA actually requires: controlled demolition, organized execution, careful detailing, and a roofing contractor experienced with the complexity of large flat and low-slope properties.
