Roofing

At BELDON® Roofing Company, we have no way of knowing how big or small your commercial roofing operation is, so we cannot assume every business person reads—or has time to read—the informative pieces at Facilitiesnet.com. We read them, because the site usually provides common-sense, unbiased ideas to save our customers money. A frequent theme, and one any veteran facilities manager has surely keyed into, is the “pay a little now or pay a lot later” idea. A September, 2015  article at Facilitiesnet illustrates this perfectly with flat roof repair.

Pay a Little Now…or a Lot Later

A flat roof repair can be a one-person, one-day job. If biannual inspection turns up a small issue, BELDON® Roofing Company can usually limit your business’s exposure:

  • Open or failing seam
  • Mechanical fastening failure
  • Clogged scuppers or drains
  • Blisters, crazing or cracking
  • Small tears in single-ply membrane from workers’ boots
  • Dislodged ballast

These are all quick fixes that your facilities budget will hardly notice. Found during a thorough twice-yearly inspection, the damage this minor problems could cause can be stopped right away. Ignored or overlooked, each small flat roof repair issue can become a budget-busting headache.

James Tapper, Professional Engineer, writes at Facilitiesnet that twice-yearly visual inspections could cost as little as “2 to 5 cents per square foot per inspection.” This means a 10,000-square foot roof could cost as little as $200 to inspect, excluding moisture surveys or other more extensive examinations.

When compared with the thousands of dollars it costs to complete extensive repairs or replacement, a nominal fee for inspections is well worth the investment.
