Like everything else in life, roofs require maintenance. For any business, planning and scheduling long-term overheads should be routine. The key benefits to a cladding or roof maintenance package are that this enables you to minimise, spread and predict those overheads.
Not every roof maintenance package is the same, however. The vast majority provide you with a regular roof inspection. This is central to a commercial roof maintenance contract because it helps you spread your roofing costs and prevent sudden unforeseen repair bills.
Warranties are not an alternative to an industrial roof maintenance contract. On the contrary, warranties usually stipulate a maintenance regimen. Good maintenance practices protect your rights under a warranty while also protecting you from additional long-term risks.
What does commercial roof maintenance include?
Not every roof is the same, so it is worth negotiating the terms of your commercial roof maintenance package to suit your commercial goals. Most maintenance contracts provide an annual or six-monthly inspection and will include roof cleaning and minor repairs. The majority of significant roof problems begin as minor roof problems, so the real value lies in the future costs they help you avoid.
All debris will be removed from gutters and other water runaway routes. Vulnerable points (like coping, flashing and caulking) are checked for damage or deterioration. Skylights, vents, flues, walkways and roof attachments will be carefully inspected. Loose panels or sheets are tightened and cracked, or storm-damaged roof panels are usually replaced on the spot. Areas prone to algae or other growths are cleaned and possibly treated. Roof ventilation may also be investigated (depending on your type of roof construction).
Inspections are only as good as the inspector, so the only roof maintenance package worth having is one with a highly experienced roofing specialist – like Alpha Roofing & Cladding.
