Preventive Maintenance

We are often called out to a commercial flat roof to fix a leak or other costly damage that could have been avoided with a preventive maintenance service agreement. Scheduled preventive maintenance has been found to save 40-50% on maintenance costs and even increase a roofs life by 35%!

Here is what to expect from a preventive maintenance service: 

  1. Scheduled Roof Inspections
    Your flat roof is routinely inspected by a certified commercial roof inspector. A proper roof inspection needs the use of special equipment to look for signs of damage and can require many steps.
  2. Seasonal Roof Preparation
    Your roof is kept clean and prepared for the upcoming seasons. Your commercial flat roof can build up standing water, snow and debris that can weaken and/or damage your investment leading to costly repairs or even the need for an entire new roof.
  3. Repairs as Necessary
    Any damage or leaks found during inspections can be attended to and repaired quickly. The more time it takes to fix any damage or leaks on a commercial flat roof the more damage in the long run.
  4. Detailed Records
    A record of inspections, repairs and problem areas will be kept. This helps not only in the maintenance of the roof but also preserves the information in the case where there is turnover with the building manager or owner.
  5. Infrared Moisture Scan
    If it seems necessary, an infrared moisture scan will be performed to identify areas of moisture and wet insulation. Moisture infiltration and insulation degradation can be hidden beneath the roof surface and this scan can pinpoint problem areas without invasive testing or costly core samples.
  6. Sealing/Re-Sealing of Mechanical Roof Penetrations
    Proactively sealing around penetrations such as pipes, HVAC units and vents. If not properly sealed these areas can become entry points of moisture and leaks over time causing costly damage.
  7. Roof Coating/Re-Coating
    If needed a new coating will be added to the surface of the flat roof. This coating adds a seamless barrier that seals and protects against water and the elements.
  8. Priority Emergency Service
    If disaster strikes, service techs will be available via a 24-hour emergency number.
