Fix Roof Leaks Fast to Minimize Damage to Your Property

A roof over our heads is something so valuable yet so easy to neglect when we’re busy with other matters. However, for business owners and commercial building managers across Florida, keeping up with your commercial roof maintenance is a task of very high importance.

By keeping a well-maintained roof, you are guaranteeing the safety of your staff and the security of your stock, as well as minimizing the need for any commercial roof repairs. Whether you’re an organization in Tampa, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, Orlando, Palm Beach, Miami, or Fort Lauderdale, it’s important to understand the risks of poor commercial roof maintenance and how to address common issues.

That is exactly why we have put together this guide! Read on to find out more.

Common Problems

Common Roof Problems in Florida

There is a wide range of potential problems for commercial roofs in Florida, so it is crucial to understand what you’re up against.

One of the most common problems roofs of any kind face is leaks. This is especially pertinent across the state of Florida, with sudden, heavy downpours all too common from Orlando and West Palm Beach to Miami-Dade. Leaks can be caused by cracking or various damages and can lead to extensive water damage if not addressed in a timely manner.

For single-ply membrane roofs, punctures are a very real and relatively common threat. As the name might suggest, single-ply membrane roofs are composed of a single layer – poke through that, and you’ve penetrated the protection of your roof entirely. From storm damage to wildlife and environmental debris, there are a wide range of potential puncture threats.

Another common area of concern for commercial roofs is the flashing. Flashing helps to protect and seal adjoining areas of a roof, keeping it watertight and secure. However, year after year the scorching Jacksonville sun beating down on it can cause it to expand, contract, and crack. Any damaged flashing must be identified and replaced or repaired as soon as possible.

Thinking along the same lines, a further common threat is that of blistering – or ‘alligatoring’. This is essentially a series of cracks caused by expansion and contracting of a roof from the effects of the sun. As time passes, this natural cycle will continue to have an impact on your roof and, unfortunately, it is something you will need to keep your eye on.

Aside from unavoidable structural damage caused by the weather and local environment, it is also important to maintain the cleanliness of your roofing system. From clearing out gutters to wiping away any gathering algae, giving your roof a regular clean can help to minimize any avoidable damage and save you a big bill.

What is Right?

Choosing the Right Commercial Roof Repair Contractor in Florida

If you’re in a position where your roof is in need of some TLC and you’d like to call in some help, it can be a challenge to choose the right commercial roof maintenance contractor for you. As with any business decision, there are a few important factors to consider – we’ll split these into:

  • Experience
  • Reputation
  • Pricing

Whilst pricing can often be the first thing many business owners look to, you need to consider the impacts of the work they will complete. Opt for a more budget-friendly contractor and you may find yourself needing to call in another professional sooner than you’d like.

For a task as important as this, we would always recommend considering the experience and local reputation of a contractor as a priority.

Many contractors will provide free consultations, within which you can find out more about their experience working on jobs of this scale and request testimonials from recent customers. Any quality professional will have no issue with providing client reviews or previous work samples – if they seem reluctant, perhaps look elsewhere!

If you know other business owners across Florida, speaking with them to find out who they may have worked with previously can be a great idea. They will often save you time and perhaps even secure you a reduced fee as a referral bonus.

Which is Right for You?

DIY vs. Professional Roof Repair: Which is Right for You?

But what if you don’t want to hire a commercial roof repair contractor and you want to carry out the repairs yourself? We salute the initiative, but this isn’t always the best option.

By working with a licensed professional, you are giving yourself the invaluable peace of mind that comes with an insured contractor. If by any chance something happens to go wrong, you’re completely covered and the necessary repairs will still be made.

However, if you decide to carry out the work yourself you run the risk of further damaging your roof, or worse, injuring yourself or a member of staff. If your roof is easily accessible and the repair is a small, superficial one, sure – give it a go! If you don’t have the correct equipment to conduct repairs in a safe manner, or if the required repair is a complex one, we would always recommend calling in a professional.

Don’t turn a few hundred dollars into several thousand in damages.

Further Improvement

How to Prevent Future Roof Problems in Florida

Now that you’ve addressed any current issues, you want to know how to avoid them reoccurring in the future. Very wise. Effective commercial roof maintenance comes down to three main steps

Inspect

Cleaning

Repair

Inspect

The first step, ‘inspect’, is by far the most important in the process. By regularly evaluating the condition of your commercial roof, you are not only able to identify current issues but also to locate any areas in need of attention in the future. You can liken this to going to the dentist – regular check-ups keep everything in order and prevent the need for large-scale, challenging work. We would recommend inspections be carried out on a six-monthly basis. This ensures you catch any developing issues before they become a real problem.

Maintenance

On top of this, we would also recommend a regular cleaning and maintenance schedule. You may choose to do this each time you conduct an inspection (seeing as you’re already up there!), or at another time that suits you. This doesn’t need to be anything overly complicated, just grab a safe cleaning solution and a soft brush, and wipe away any accumulating dirt, algae, or debris, as well as clearing out your gutters and drainage paths. Something as simple as this will help greatly extend the lifespan of your commercial roof.

Repair

It goes without saying, but if upon inspection you notice an area in need of commercial roof repair, speak with a professional to get it sorted as soon as possible. Each passing day brings with it the risk of water damage and lasting impacts from moisture buildup.

Summary

So, as we’ve shown, a commercial roof isn’t just something you can ‘get and forget’ – it requires regular attention and maintenance to keep it functioning at the top of its game.

You may feel that there are more pressing matters for you to spend your time or budget on, but trust us, if something substantial was to happen to your roof, you would seriously regret not giving it more thought.

We always recommend commercial property owners to stick to the three-step plan – 1. Inspect, 2. Maintain, 3. Repair.

Follow this simple routine and you’ll keep your property functional, safe, and secure for decades to come.

Highly recommend this company.
