We see the same scenario play out at many different HOA properties that have multi-unit buildings in Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Dania Beach, Sunrise, Plantation, Lauderhill, FL, and the Surrounding Areas. The roof needs to be repaired or replaced, however, the board doesn’t approach the project in a professional manner, and this can lead to problems and resident complaints. Working with Commercial Roofing Industries can help you to make a smooth project with your roof repairs or replacement. Communication is probably the most important aspect so that you keep the residents informed about what is happening, why it is happening, and what they can expect for the project period. Roofs have expiration dates, and proper planning will make the process go smoothly and things will happen on a structured timeline. When you are looking at a roof repair or replacement project, reach out to our team to get things rolling.
Planning and Execution
Your HOA roof repairs should start with an inspection to gauge the extent of the repairs needed, or if a full replacement is required. Once you have this inspection from our team, your board can discuss the results and start making plans for what is needed. There may also be tiers of important repairs, and prioritizing these is important so that the most critical items are addressed first. And understanding how one repair might affect another repair is also important.
Residents don’t like to be interrupted with loud noises, or to have the hassle of trying to get around work crews. But, if they are informed early in the process, they at least can make alternative plans and will understand the disruption. Let them know the work hours that they can expect noise, how it will affect parking, and more.
Keeping An Eye on the Weather
We all know when the hurricane season happens, but even scheduling roof repairs outside of that window doesn’t guarantee that you won’t have project delays due to heavy rains, high winds, or other issues. Understanding the timeline that is required is important, and if things are bumping up against this hurricane season, handling the most important repairs first ensures that your buildings will remain buttoned up and ready for action.
Your commercial roofing takes a beating every year, and the materials used have a useful life before they must be replaced. And with some storms, life can be shortened with flying objects and high winds. Commercial Roofing Industries can help you put together a timeline for your needed roof repairs and make a plan for minimal disruptions for your residents.
