Commercial Roofing Restoration: What to Look Out For

The question of whether or not to pursue roof restoration continues to linger in the minds of many commercial property owners. The idea of it, after all, is intriguing—it not only saves money but also brings the roof back to its watertight condition. The fact that it helps extends the lifespan of the entire system makes it a better choice over a complete tear-off and replacement.

Patriot Roofing LLC, your local roofing and gutter installation contractor, explains the signs that make a commercial roof a good candidate for a restoration.

Intact Substrate

In time, the roof’s substrate may begin to show problems with adhesion due to constant exposure to the elements. Apart from moisture trapped between the roof and the substrate, the roof could also be experiencing seam failure. A thorough inspection from the roofing pros is necessary to diagnose this issue and possibly recommend a roof restoration.

The Age of the Substrate

An older commercial roofing system can still be restored as long as it is well-maintained throughout its service life. Single-ply membrane roofs tend to have longer lifespans, making them a perfect candidate for restoration should they show signs of damage.

The Climate

Commercial roofs tend to age quicker in areas that experience rainfall or relatively high humidity. Intense hot climates, meanwhile, can hasten the deterioration of commercial roofs because of harmful UV rays. The protective barrier of these systems begins to break down with constant exposure, causing them to fail sooner than expected.
