If there’s one advice that roofing professionals can give you, it would probably be to never skimp on roof maintenance. The costs of maintaining a commercial roof can be significant. But with your investment in proper roof management, you can avoid several roofing issues and even more expensive repairs.
In this post, trusted roof service company Fields Roof Service shares some of the best practices for commercial roof management.
What do you plan to do with your property in the future? Your answer to this question will help you draw up an appropriate commercial roof maintenance plan. For instance, if you are keen on renovating the building in a few years time or selling the property after a decade, your roof maintenance program should fit those goals. Furthermore, let your contractor know about such goals so that they can tailor-fit a commercial roof management plan.
Make sure that you have a record of the past roof repair jobs and maintenance done on your commercial roof. Such documents can prove to be quite helpful, especially if you need to check details such as the date of roof installation, the name of the roof installer, the roof manufacturer, and so on. You should also include warranty information and maintenance records and pictures in your roofing history record. If there are any issues in your roofing over the past years, you should also make it a point to log these in your roofing record.
Make sure that you are aware of the contents of the building. Of course, if you have big-ticket items such as computers or other kinds of machinery, you would want these things to be adequately protected against the elements. That said, you should have the right roofing solution and an appropriate maintenance program to ensure that such items are safe from harm.
