CALIFORNIA COMMERCIAL ROOFING | PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT
It might be hard to believe but it’s possible your California commercial roof is actually costing you money. As a commercial roofing system gets older, and the longer it goes without roof maintenance, problems arise and efficiency decreases. Here are some ways to improve roof efficiency, save you money and help you decide if it’s time to repair or replace your old roof.
HOW YOUR COMMERCIAL ROOF IS COSTING YOU
If you’ve noticed an increase in utilities over time it could be an indicator your roof is not efficient anymore. In the summer, a darker color roof absorbs sunlight and could be taxing on your A/C functionality. In the winter, an older roof could be letting heat escape. Not only will it cost you in bills but it is likely shortening the lifetime of your HVAC unit as well which can be costly to replace or repair.
The cost will only go up if you don’t perform maintenance or repairs. Neglecting to make any changes can lead to a total replacement where originally only a simple repair was needed.
COOL ROOF
There is such thing as a cool roof! Using materials that reflect sunlight, lighter colors or roof coatings can help your roof keep cold air in and hot air out. It’s important to know your climate! Certain roofing materials are better suited for different temperatures, weather, and seasonal changes.
COMMERCIAL ROOF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT?
If you can visually tell your Southern California roof is damaged, curling, buckling, splitting, blistering, or has major debris on the roof deck this is an indicator of a roof in need of repair or replacement.
