Commercial Roof Replacement & Repair

The life span of a commercial roof depends on the material used. Most roofs can last between 15 and 25 years, but this is only an average. The life span of a roof will vary depending on the quality of maintenance it receives, as well as environmental factors like weather and extreme temperatures that may cause damage.

The price of commercial roofing depends on several factors, such as:

• Roof pitch
• Materials chosen
• Roof size
• Installation accessibility
• Underlay costs
• Climate
• Code and permit requirements
• Warranty selection

For smaller commercial buildings with simple roof designs, the replacement process may take around a week or two. However, larger or more complex commercial roofs, such as those with multiple levels, architectural features, or equipment installations, may require several weeks or longer to complete.

Other factors that can affect the timeline include the need for structural repairs or modifications, the type of roofing system being installed, and the accessibility of the site.

Some typical roof maintenance services are:

• Fix leaks immediately: If you notice a leak on your roof, prevent the problem from worsening by calling a professional roof leak repair company.
• Keep it clean: Cleaning helps prevent algae growth and other problems, such as bird droppings, that can stain the roof and lead to complicated issues.
• Trim nearby branches: Branches that come too close to your roof can damage it over time.
• Clear winter snow: If you live in a snowy area, remove excessive snowfall from your roof as soon as possible. Snow can build up on your roof and weigh it down, making it more susceptible to leaks.
• Unclog drains and gutters: Clearing out gutters and drains will help prevent damage from water buildup or flooding during heavy rains.

Commercial roofs should be inspected at least twice a year. Inspections can help you catch damage before water leaks or structural problems start.

Common repairs involve fixing issues like:

• Roof leaks
• Blistering
• Foot traffic damage
• Water accumulation
• Weather damage
• Lack of maintenance

Several factors can result in commercial roof leaks, such as:

• Membrane damage: Leaks often occur alongside damage to the roof’s membrane, which acts as a barrier against water penetration.
• Drainage issues: If your business has gutters or downspouts with reduced functionality, you may witness water pooling on the roof and causing damage over time.
• Deteriorating seals: The seals on your commercial roof keep water from leaking into your building. Over time, these seals can deteriorate, allowing water to seep through the seams.
• Flashing complications: Flashing is an architectural detail designed to prevent water from entering between different layers of roofing materials. Flashing issues may allow water into your building’s interior space.
• Weather impairment: Extreme weather conditions, powerful winds, rain, hail and snow can cause leaks in your roof, even if you have a strong seal.
