Roof maintenance is approached differently by commercial and residential roofers. While both might be highly professional in their approach, the simple fact that commercial roofs are larger, more extensive installations that require greater attention to detail to prevent property damage is telling, as large companies have raised the bar of the industry quite a bit by being a lot more picky about the roofers they hire and paying a lot more money in exchange for their services.
An experienced and accomplished commercial roofing Colorado Springs CO company will follow only the best preventive practices when it comes to roof maintenance:
- By already having the right knowledge about local roofing practices, they will know where to look from the start, and they’ll spot hidden problems with your roof right away.
- Their approach is mainly preventive, which means they will seek to prevent damage by applying the correct maintenance tasks well before the issue can lead to a leak or other problems that require immediate or emergency intervention.
- They will have different advice depending on the type of roof you own. For low maintenance metal or asphalt roofs, they might simply recommend an annual maintenance plan that doesn’t involve too much. However, for other types of roofs, they might recommend that you check for damage at least twice a year, keeping a close eye on debris, pooling, impact damage and other potential issues.
