So you think you have roof damage? You’ll be happy to know that with a quick call, your roof damage worries can be taken care of by Top Tech Roofing.
As a commercial property owner, you know that one of your primary responsibilities is to ensure that any problems that arise are taken care of quickly and efficiently. Roof damage is an inevitable part of owning a building; problems occur when the damage isn’t noticed or taken care of immediately.
Here are some signs of damage that can help you spot any potential commercial roof damage with ease.
Inspection
You can make an inspection of the roof to assess any damage that you think is occurring. Here are some signs that you have a damaged roof.
Cracked or blistered commercial roof surface – there may be blisters, bubbles, or cracks appearing on your roof. This is a sign of trapped moisture.
Commercial roof leaks – any water on your roof should evaporate within 72 hours; if it is standing for long, it can cause leaks and age your roof.
Smell/Mold – If there are any leaks, you will notice a foul smell and/or mold.
Damaged flat roof flashing – if you can see rust or damage to the flashing (metal strips that secure the roofing materials), then there is a high possibility that your roof is leaking.
If you notice any of these things, you should immediately call a professional roofing company.
Choose an Experienced Roofing Contractor
Take your time to read reviews and testimonials before choosing a roofing company. When commercial roof damage is dealt with incorrectly, it can lead to a more expensive commercial roof repair. Look for a local company with years of experience and the correct licenses.
Professional Inspection
Once you have found the commercial roofing company that you prefer, you should give them a call and arrange a professional inspection. You can give them all of the relevant information about the property and the condition of the roof.
Insurance
You should have the right building insurance to cover damages and repairs to the building, including the roof. There are several instances where the insurance won’t cover the damage. Here are some typical damages that might not be covered by insurance.
Roof Age
Damage caused by the owner
Risky materials
Once the damage has been assessed, you will need to file the claim with your insurance company. After the claim has been processed, the roofing company can then repair the damage.
Don’t Delay
The longer you put off having your commercial roof repaired, the more likely the damage will turn from a smaller, more manageable job into a more serious health and safety issue.
