Keeping you warm and dry since 1985
Who likes spending money on a roof? Nobody. And the reason is simple: you can’t see it. In fact, typically you forget it exists, until it isn’t functioning properly and it leaks.
For this reason, the roof gets neglected and is allowed to deteriorate beyond repair. Building owners end up spending a lot more money on their roofs. Conversely, building owners that are proactive and spend money on maintenance, turn their roofs into their greatest asset.
How is this possible? Your roof turns into an asset because the money you spend up front ends up saving you a large amount of money down the road. Reactive repairs are expensive and neglected problems always get bigger.
When the budget allows, the best solution is a full fluid applied waterproofing system. These systems can slow down the life cycle and stop the aging by extending the life of your roof with proactive maintenance.
There are a multitude of options when deciding on how to preserve a roof. We start with a thorough examination of the current roof condition. Hopefully, at this stage, owners are being proactive and the roof is not beyond 25% saturation.
Once 25% saturation is reached, the Roofing Code requires the owner to reroof.
If a roof isn’t in need of a full maintenance coating, we have options to tend to the critical points of the roof. We can also provide annual or bi-annual maintenance programs. These programs include thorough roof inspections and any minor roofing membrane repairs.
