Most industrial roofs measure hundreds or even thousands of square feet, making careful inspection time-consuming and expensive.
Short of stationing several employees on the roof full-time to watch for signs of damage, what can a business owner do to protect your commercial roof?
Inspection
Working with a professional roofer, such as BELDON® Roofing Company, puts the business owner at an advantage. With consistent, professional inspections, your roofing system is efficiently and methodically investigated for signs of damage and deterioration.
BELDON® Roofing Company prepares a full report after inspection, laying out repair options if damage is found.
To minimize damage, plan on semiannual inspections by your commercial roofing contractor. Although you cannot stand on your roof with a protective net, inspections can spot membrane tears, drain clogs, and seam separation early, keeping repair costs low.
Maintenance
Along with regular inspections, regular maintenance can also prevent damage from spreading, it can prevent damage entirely.
Keeping scuppers clear, internal drains adequately flashed and sealed, and reflective coatings in good repair, your commercial roofing contractor can add many service years to your roof. Regular maintenance can prevent ponding, for example, by keeping low spots from forming.
You can do little to prevent stray objects from striking your roof, but tears and gouges account for very little of the gate-closing damage industrial buildings suffer. In extreme cases, roof related problems can cause an industrial property to close its doors due to:
– Ponding
– Leaks
– Seam failure
– Roof collapse
By keeping drains clear and insulation dry, you can prevent major water-related damage from starting.
Roof Monitor™
The high-technology approach to preventing roof damage on your industrial property is an innovative system, Roof Monitor™, that senses and reports on live loads (from snow and rain) on low-slope commercial roofs. In addition to its Roof Sensor™ feature, the Monitor also provides Edge Defense™ to keep your employees, third-party vendors, and your commercial roof contractor safe.
Your commercial roofing contractor, combining the experience of trained crews with the unblinking attentiveness of a wireless network, can protect your industrial roof as though a shield were drawn over it.
