Why Preventative Roof
Maintenance Saves You Thousands

Most people invest very little time in thinking about things they cannot see. For example, you know that your commercial property in Batesville, Arkansas, or Nashville, Tennessee, has a roof that is estimated to provide about 30 years of service. But rarely do you consider the care that is needed to ensure the roof fulfills that expectation. You might not even venture onto the roof once each year to see its condition or ask a maintenance staff member to take a look at the surface and determine if it needs any repairs or maintenance. Fortunately, the team at Weather is available to provide professional roof inspections and provide you with a list of essential services and repairs that will ensure the roof on your commercial property in Omaha, Nebraska, is sound and can provide the protection the facility and its contents need.

How Commercial Roof Leaks Are Created By A Lack Of Maintenance

When you consider a commercial roof failure, you typically envision a roof leak, which is a
fair assumption. But there are countless issues that can cause a roof leak, many of which
can be prevented by providing a small amount of roof maintenance. Damaged flashing, clogged gutters, cracked roof tiles, missing shingles, blistering, and standing water are all issues that would be discovered by the professionals at Weather when they are performing
a roof inspection at the property. While the solutions vary based on the issue at hand, the repair or remediation of the trouble is absolutely going to be more cost-effective than an extensive roof repair, a roof replacement, and covering the cost of repairs for water
damage.

Understanding The Added Value In A Weather Commercial Roof Inspection

When you contact Weather for a commercial roof inspection, rest assured, our staff will do a great deal more work than simply climbing a ladder and taking a leisurely stroll across the roof’s surface. Our pros look for all the common indications of trouble like standing water on a flat roof, missing or damaged roof tiles or shingles, damaged seams or seals on membrane roofing surfaces, and evidence of impact from debris that could have occurred during a recent storm. But that is only the beginning of the inspection process. Our staff also checks all of the flashing for any loose, buckled, or damaged areas, and carefully reviews the seals around any windows, skylights, equipment, or pipes that are secured to the roof or that protrude through the roof.

From the exterior of the building, the crew will also inspect the gutters or drain areas to ensure there is no water damage or clogged areas that could cause water to stand or back up into the structure. Joints and seams in these areas are also closely inspected for damage from the environment, rodents, birds, or indications of mold that could all be early warning signs of trouble that must be addressed immediately to prevent a more costly issue in the future. Finally, the inspection moves inside to revisit all the same components on the interior side of the roof to look for indications of a minor issue that can quickly and cost-effectively be corrected to prevent more costly repairs in the future.

Routine Roof Inspections And Maintenance Prevent More Costly Expenses

Trust the team at Weather for your annual commercial roof inspection and know that investing a small amount in this service is the best way to prevent more costly issue, water damage to your building and its contents, and the expenses of a new roof long before its time because it did not get the professional maintenance needed to reach its full life expectancy.
