Have you wondered if your commercial roof is nearing the end of its life in Davie, Broward County, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Deerfield Beach, Weston, FL, and the surrounding areas? Many building owners aren’t sure what to look for that indicates the need for a replacement roof, and this makes it important to bring in our expert team from Commercial Roofing Industries to do a roof inspection. In general, commercial roofs should last between 20 and 30 years depending on the materials used for the roof. And while age can be a determining factor in when to replace a commercial roof, likely there will be other aspects that together spell out the need for a new roof. Contact us today to schedule a roof inspection and learn more about the signs to watch for that could indicate the need for a new roof.
What To Look for with Your Existing Roof
As mentioned before, the age of your existing roof will come into play when determining if you need a new roof. The older your existing roof, the more likely it is that you will need a new roof installed. The second thing to look for is pooling or ponding water on your roof. This can indicate one or more of several issues, assuming that your roof drains are fully open and not obstructed. On the reverse side of things, if you find bubbling or blistering of your roofing material, this is also an indication of roof problems.
The longer that your roof has been on the building, the more storm damage that it will have sustained. Likely some of this has been repaired or patched, but the more damage it takes, the sooner the roof will need to be replaced. If you notice that your flashing is also damaged from years of abuse, this just adds to the need for commercial roof replacement.
