4 Ways to Fix a Damaged Commercial Roof

Dealing with your commercial roofing system’s issues can be addressed in various ways. Depending on the issue it is facing, most roof companies would list down four methods to ensure its longevity, including the following:

1. Repair: Fixes are known to be temporary solutions. It is dependent on the extent of insulation. Experts note that a roof with a high degree of insulation and those whose membranes are in good condition are guaranteed to be easily repaired.

2. Re-cover: Oftentimes, getting a new roof isn’t necessary. For your system, for example, a re-covering can be a great option. This makes sense if your roof also has good insulation. Moreover, this practice saves the inconvenience of tear-offs.

3. Replacement: Although it can be expensive, replacing your roof is ideal if your system has been badly damaged or it’s older than 20 years. Your hints for renewal are leaks and organic growth.

4. Coatings: For a commercial building, coating your system is a wise decision. This is cost-effective and environmentally friendly because a roof restoration system does not require the existing roof to be torn off. This eliminates the contribution to landfill waste and costs you less as you do not need to pay landfill fees or for a new roof. It can also ensure at least 10+ years of lengthened roof life, renewed reflectivity and excellent waterproofing capabilities.
