If you’re a business owner, your commercial roof is just as important to you as your residential roof is at home. We want to help ensure you know how to properly care for your commercial roof to ensure it has a long lifespan while maintaining the quality you need for your investment.
Here are our top three commercial roof maintenance tips:
- Get regular inspections of the roof. When you first purchased your commercial building, a roofing inspection likely had to happen before your insurance policy was approved. Many building owners think that’s the only roof inspection they will ever need. However, you should get your commercial roof inspected at least every two years to ensure it’s in good shape and there aren’t any minor issues that could turn into big problems.
- Keep the roof clean. Commercial roof maintenance involves ensuring your roof is being well-kept to prolong its lifespan. Many times customers know to check their roofs after a major storm, but we want you to be alert year-round about your roof’s cleanliness. If you keep your roof clean, it will last longer.
- Clean out your drains. A major issue with commercial roofs is when drains are not cleaned out. A clogged drain can cause all of the water to backflow onto the roof, causing leaks, which will in turn cause further damage to the roof. Keep those drains clean to prolong the life of your roof.
With these three commercial roof maintenance tips, you’ll be able to keep your roof in tip-top shape! Feel free to contact us today if you have any questions or need assistance with maintenance for your building’s roof.
