Roof Repair/Maintenance
Precision Roofing Services has been a leader in providing professional service to the commercial, industrial, and residential roofing market for many years. Our list of satisfied customers is always growing.
To assure you get the maximum life from your roof, Precision offers these maintenance tips:
1) Clear Debris, Snow and Watch for Ponding Water
Leaves, branches and other items from nearby trees can clog drainage areas causing pooling of water and can keep the roof from drying completely causing mold or moss to develop. Eventually these can lead to cracks and leaks. In our area specifically when we experience heavy snow or ice storms it is a good idea to make certain the roof drains properly so there is no weight issue.
2) Periodically Walk the Roof to Check for Soft/Spongy Areas
This may mean the underlay material is wet or damaged.
3) Hire a Professional Flat Roofer for all Repairs and Installation
Poor quality installation can compromise the integrity of a roof. The National Roofing Contractors Association reveals a startling statistic that 47% of roof failures are due to poor workmanship.
4) Check Seams and Flashings
If a leak is going to occur, typically it is around drains, chimney stacks, rooftop equipment, skylights, parapets, and other protrusions. Assuring seals are intact around these is a cost-effective means of extending the life of your roof.
5) Clear Drain Areas
When working properly, these serve to flow water off the roof. They are typically the first place debris will accumulate to develop into clogs. Small animals can inhabit the enclosed spaces so make sure to confirm the flow is clear from roof to ground.
