Benefits of Roof Maintenance for your Panama City Commercial Business

Panama City roofing contractors

Preferred Panama City roofing contractors widely agree that inspections and maintenance operations performed regularly on the roof of your Panama City commercial business, followed by timely repair of the observed defects, bring you the following benefits:

  • Increasing the life of the roof, resulting in substantial savings due to the reduction of the cost of the roof compared to its lifespan - a maintenance program of a flat roof, together with its correct design and execution, can double its lifespan (from 15 -16 years, which is the average, up to 30 years, which is the expected lifespan of a roof covered with PVC or TPO membranes).
  • Reducing the cost of heating and cooling the building by detecting inefficient wet thermal insulation and taking the necessary measures - for example, in the cold winter months depending on the heating mode and the thermal insulation system, the monthly savings can be significant.
  • Optimizing the costs necessary for roof repair - builders bid on the basis of a pre-established list of works, which makes it easy to separate bids, and, at the same time, builders include in the offer all the works necessary for a quality commercial roof.
  • Avoiding potential problems due to infiltration causing unpredictable costs with the repair of interior finishes, furniture, equipment and other goods affected by moisture.
  • Increasing the quality of the indoor environment - water infiltrated into the structure can lead to the appearance of mold and moisture, which are harmful to health.
  • Eliminating the risk of structural degradation of the roof caused by humidity in the thermal-waterproofing system.

Safety conscious Pensacola roofing contractors will stop work if rain starts and so should you if you have decided to do some roof work on your own. However, there are several good ways to maintain efficiency and safety, whatever weather comes along: Check the long-term forecast as well as for the next few days before you start any roofing project – weather forecasts are not always 100% reliable, but they can give you a clue about the chances of getting rain while your roofing project is under way; Removing only as much of the old roof in one go as can be replaced during the day – while removing the entire old roof and proceeding to the installation of the new material only afterward seems like a good idea, good roofers do not remove more of the old material than they can replace in one day; Having large sheets of fo...

How to Inspect Your Roof After a Storm

Storms may happen in any season and require a roof inspection, to make sure the bad weather did not cause damage. Water infiltration under the roof indicates that somewhere the roof is damaged. However, not all leaks are as obvious as you may think, as wet stains that appear on the ceiling are not necessarily exactly below the roof area that allowed the infiltration. The roof will need to be checked both inside and out. Depending on the type of roof, verify if there are displaced covering materials, cracks or uncovered spaces. In addition, check the gutters and downspouts; they must not have loose, deformed or cracked elements. The area under the eaves must also be in good shape, with no visible damage. Last but not least, pay close attention to checking the areas around skylights or dormer windows, chimneys, roof vents, solar panels mounted on roofs, satellite dishes etc., as they are generally the most vulnerable and favor most water infiltration. If you have an old roof that ha...
