Exposure to the elements Heat, Rain and Wind can have a big effect on any commercial roof and are often the biggest threat to a roof’s health. As a responsible property owner, knowing how the weather can affect your commercial roof is key to keeping it in great shape.
Some elements that property owners should be on the lookout for.
HEAT
Excessive heat can make certain materials swell. Those expansions can cause immediate damage, as well as further problems when they start to shrink.
RAIN
Rain is the most regular element and is one that you cannot afford to ignore for a second. The smallest hole or crack in the roof can allow water to pass through and wreak havoc on your commercial building.
WIND
We don’t tend to think of wind as a damaging element. However, strong winds can cause serious harm to a commercial roof. Wind can force trees to rub against the roof or tree branches can break off and puncture the roof.
The best way to avoid roof-related problems and strengthen weather resistance is through regular care and preventive maintenance. Proper maintenance prolongs the life of a commercial roof and allows for a “repair” instead of “replacement”.
