You should always regularly check the roof of your commercial building to ensure that it’s in healthy condition. Have your roofing contractor perform bi-annual inspections, as commercial roofs need to be checked periodically for leaks, flashing issues, and any other damages. Commercial roofs can be affected by water damage more than other roofing types because of their flat design.
The most common roofing material used for commercial roofing is EPDM roofing. It’s affordable, incredibly durable, and holds up against extreme weather elements.
Don’t procrastinate if you see any issues on your roof. Something that appears small can lead to major damages and affect your business.
Following any extreme weather conditions, check your roof to make sure it is still strong and healthy, even if you’ve just recently had your regular maintenance completed.
Things to look out for-
Visible signs of damage- cracks, holes, blistering, splitting, or punctures. If you have a membrane roof, confirm its integrity by looking for any tears or seams coming apart.
Leaks or water stains
Flashing and seams- inspect these to make sure there is no corrosion, separation, or deterioration
Poor drainage- look at gutters, downspouts, and drains for any debris, vegetation, or blockage.
Make sure to hire a roofing contractor who is experienced, knowledgeable, and qualified. Do your research before choosing someone to work on the key protector of your building. A roofing contractor can help assess the health of your roof, suggest a maintenance plan, and recommend any other tips to help extend the life of your roof.
