Cold-Fluid Applied Systems
The ultimate monolithic solution for roofs with complex geometry, intricate penetrations, and difficult architectural details.
- Seamless, monolithic waterproof barrier
- Adapts perfectly to complex flashing details
- Superior UV and chemical resistance
- Fast curing even in NYC's humid seasons
Torch Applied Systems
Reinforced bitumen membranes heat-welded to create a rugged, seam-free barrier against the harshest urban elements.
- Excellent puncture and impact resistance
- High-performance reinforced membranes
- Rapid installation for active commercial sites
- Long-term leak prevention technology
Green Roofing
Eco-efficient systems that combine advanced waterproofing with vegetation to improve insulation and manage stormwater runoff.

Precision Process: Installation & Maintenance
Harbor’s systematic approach to industrial roofing begins with a high-resolution condition assessment to isolate structural and waterproofing weaknesses. From surgical patching and liquid-applied overlays to comprehensive system replacements, our process is engineered for minimal operational impact. Post-installation, our veteran technical teams deploy scheduled maintenance and proactive sealant inspections, stabilizing New York buildings against severe atmospheric degradation and ensuring continuous fire-code safety.
DURABILITY & EFFICIENCY
Industrial roofing system choices fundamentally dictate building longevity and operational efficiency. In New York City's demanding environment—from extreme temperature fluctuations to intense seasonal storms—selecting the right substrate and application method ensures maximum resistance and structural protection. High-performance systems, such as Green Roofing or Cold-Applied membranes, provide significant energy savings through improved insulation and urban heat island mitigation, while also offering critical stormwater management benefits for active buildings.
