Reliable Roof Maintenance

Your Roof: Out of Sight, Out of Mind

Roofs are often neglected because they're out of sight. But neglecting minor roof problems can lead to major leaks, premature failure, and costly damage. Water damage can cause mold, attract insects, and even make your building uninhabitable. A proactive roof maintenance program is crucial for protecting your property.

Benefits of a Roof Maintenance Program

Regular roof maintenance offers several advantages:

• Cost Savings: Reduces roof-related expenses and avoids costly emergency repairs.
• Extended Roof Lifespan: Increases the life of your roof by up to 50%.
• Warranty Compliance: Ensures your roof warranty remains valid.
• Reduced Insurance Costs: May lead to lower premiums or deductibles.

Key Objectives of Roof Maintenance

• Debris Removal: Keep the roof surface clear of debris.
• Drainage System Cleaning: Clean gutters, drains, and scuppers.
• Flashing Repair: Repair and seal flashings to prevent leaks.
• Regular Inspections: Document the roof's condition and identify potential issues.
• Timely Repairs: Address minor problems before they become major.

Why Routine Inspections Matter

Routine inspections help you stay informed about your roof's condition. This allows you to address minor repairs promptly, preventing larger problems and costly solutions down the road. Simple tasks like debris removal and maintaining clear drainage paths can significantly extend your roof's lifespan.

Information to Provide Your Roofing Contractor

To ensure effective maintenance, provide your roofing contractor with:

• Building specifications
• Roof plans
• Inspection reports
• History of roofing problems and repairs
• Information about roof penetrations and modifications
• Warranty documentation

Roof Surveys and Corrective Action

Thorough roof surveys are essential for identifying existing problems and determining necessary corrective actions. These surveys should include a written report, photographs, and recommendations. Any required corrective action should be addressed before starting a maintenance program.

Developing a Roof Maintenance Plan

A roof maintenance plan should be tailored to your budget and the specific needs of your roof. Factors to consider include the roof's age, condition, debris accumulation, environmental factors, and roof traffic.
