Any commercial roofing system that’s been well-cared for and maintained can keep its building safe and secure from all types of weather. But even with good quality materials and routine maintenance, roofs can still get damaged throughout their lifespan. Minor roof damage must be addressed promptly to prevent it from getting worse.
If you happen to notice that you’re paying for roof repairs more frequently, you might think that the best way to resolve this is to get a full replacement. However, this isn’t always the case. You have three options to consider:
Roof Repair
Repairs are usually done during routine maintenance, which is usually carried out either once a year or whenever bad weather hits the area. This is because it’s the only time when the smaller problems that were previously overlooked are identified and addressed professionally. Otherwise, the problems only get bigger and will lead to more damage.
Roof Restoration
While extensive repairs can be the best option, this will only depend on how much damage your roof has suffered. If you don’t want to frequently pay for repairs, you can choose to get it restored before considering a full replacement. This is essentially having your roofing system redone without replacing it. This can effectively address minor issues and help prolong its serviceable life without having to pay for a full replacement. It’s also more thorough and less disruptive. It’s even less expensive than a full replacement, but to get the most out of your restoration project, make sure that it’s done by trusted roofers.
Roof Replacement
If the roofing assessment shows that your commercial roof can’t be saved through restoration, then your best bet is to get a full replacement. This is also the best option if your property suffers significant and extensive damage from severe weather because you get a full tear-off of the current components to install brand-new materials. A full replacement may also be necessary depending on whether it’s near the end of its lifespan. You can determine this by checking your roofing system’s maintenance history and other similar records that indicate when it was first installed.
