Ballasted Roof Vacuuming Services — Commercial Gravel & Aggregate Removal

Vac-It-All is America’s most experienced ballasted roof vacuuming contractor. For over 45 years, roofing contractors and commercial building owners across the country have relied on us to remove gravel, stone, and aggregate from flat and low-slope roofing systems — efficiently, safely, and on schedule.

Whether you’re preparing a surface for new membrane installation, re-roofing a large commercial facility, or clearing aggregate ahead of repairs, Vac-It-All has the equipment and the crew to get it done right. We’ve successfully completed ballasted roof vacuuming projects on structures ranging from small commercial buildings under 100 squares to 47-story high-rise towers — with zero disruption to active job sites or occupied buildings.

Blowback: A Standalone Advantage

On ballasted roof projects where aggregate redistribution is needed, Vac-It-All’s high-powered blowback system offers a significant advantage over vacuum-only contractors. Rather than hauling aggregate off-site and paying for re-delivery, our blowback technology uses pressurized air to return gravel and stone directly to your roof deck — saving time, reducing cost, and keeping your project on schedule.

Blowback is also available as a completely standalone service — independent of ballasted roof vacuuming. If you need aggregate or bulk material moved, relocated, or returned to a specific area on any commercial project, our blowback system can handle it.
