Roofing Maintenance and Inspections

HAVE YOU HAD YOUR ROOF INSPECTED LATELY?

A proper roof maintenance and inspection program can not only extend the life of your roof, but it can identify deficiencies that could potentially cost your company in damaged merchandise, damaged equipment, and lost operating time. You could also be preventing harm to tenants or employees.

It will also include a list of any routine roof and exterior building maintenance/repair items that might be needed and projected costs.

No matter what season it is, it's always the right time to take care of the one thing that protects all of your important assets.

Summer 

Summer is an important time for maintaining your roof as the extreme heat and summer RAYS can damage all roof types. Roof inspections during this period can locate serious defects that may later cause costly leaks and premature roofing system deterioration. 

Quality routine inspections of your roof can provide early detection of these problems:
  • Deteriorated, split or cracked flashings on walls, curbs and roof penetrations
  • Split or cracked parapet wall and coping joints
  • Splits or ruptured blisters in modified or built-up roofs
  • ​Holes, tears, and splits on single ply roofs

Fall

The leaves are changing colors and falling which means one thing, it's Fall! While we enjoy the pretty leaves on the ground we do not enjoy them in our gutters or on our roofs. Fall brings great weather which makes for a perfect time to get your annual roof inspection. With cold weather just around the corner, a full inspection of your commercial roofing system can locate serious defects that may cause costly leaks and premature roofing deterioration over the winter months. There is no time better than now to make sure your roofing system is ready to tackle Winter. 

Quality routine inspections of your roof can provide early detection of these problems:
  • Leaves and other debris clogging your gutters 
  • ​Deteriorated, split or cracked flashings on walls, curbs and roof penetrations
  • Split or cracked parapet wall and coping joints
  • Splits or ruptured blisters in modified or built-up roofs
  • ​Holes, tears, and splits on single ply roofs
Don't forget, making the small repairs now will save you big money and will extend the life of your roof. No repair is too small. 

Winter

Your roof has gone through a lot these past three seasons. From the spring rain, summer heat, to fall leaves, your roof may be in need of some maintenance. Winter weather can be tough on your roof. The cold, snow and ice, freezing and thawing, can all create severe problems. It is so important to make sure your roof can with stand these brutal winter months. If you missed your annual roof inspection this year it's not too late! An inspection of your roofing system and fixing the small problems no can save you money in the long.

A Ray Company roof inspection can help detect: 
  • Deteriorated, split or cracked flashings on walls, curbs and roof penetrations
  • Split or cracked parapet wall and coping joints
  • Splits or ruptured blisters in modified or built-up roofs
  • ​Holes, tears, and splits on single ply roofs

Spring

An inspection of your roofing system after cold winter months and before hot summer begins is critical to the proper maintenance of your roof. While the repair of some observed problems could be deferred until summer or fall, it is best to address these items during Spring when we usually have better weather conditions.

Quality routine inspections of your roof can provide early detection of these problems:
  • Deteriorated, split or cracked flashings on walls, curbs and roof penetrations
  • Split or cracked parapet wall and coping joints
  • Splits or ruptured blisters in modified or built-up roofs
  • ​Holes, tears, and splits on single ply roofs
These conditions if not corrected, could lead to costly leaks and roofing system deterioration during summer months.
