4 SIMPLE STEPS TO:
- Lower Maintenance Costs
- Longer Roof Service Life
- No More leak Expenses
- Significantly Less Liability
- Dramatic Cost Savings
The first step in proactive roof management is knowing what is going on up there. Are the problems brewing that you do not know about?
Are your flashings secured and roof penetrations properly sealed? Here is where an in-depth roof analysis pays off.
How do you arrive at the bottom line figure for your roofing budget? An “educated guess” or a “shot in the dark?” Maybe you understand
that a roof is undergoing constant wear and attack from the elements, so you add a standard 10% or 15% to last year’s budget? Consider
doing this instead.
While the overall field of the roofing system is designed to last for many years, the details, flashings, penetrations and sealants simply do not. Very similar to performing a tune up on your car, there are things that need to be checked and repaired. Take a look here to see the most common items that need to be addressed and steps to take to do it right.
Now that the roof is in good condition, it’s time to keep it that way. The goal of step #4 is routine preventative maintenance is
to identify little problems and deterioration early and take corrective action immediately. Generally, roof leaks do not develop overnight,
but a result from deterioration over time. This is where the real saving begins and the hard work pays off.
