You’ve invested a lot of money in your commercial building, and you want it to stand for a long time. Keeping the roof in perfect repair will preserve the structural integrity of the entire building and protect your investment. Commercial roof preventive maintenance goes a long way toward safeguarding your building, but if you ever need structural repairs, go with the experts at The Structures Group.

The roof is your building’s first line of defense against extreme temperatures, storms, and other hazards. Don’t wait until you have a leak before you check your roof for damage. If you want to make your roof last a long time, try to spot potential problems before they start. Preventive maintenance can help you steer clear of costly repairs and even structural failure. 

Commercial Roof Preventive Maintenance Checklist

• Keep the roof clean and free from debris.
• Check for compliance with OSHA safety regulations.
• Schedule regular roof inspections by a qualified professional.
• Repair any leaks, wear, or damage as soon as possible.
• Check for signs of structural damage after fires, floods, accidental impacts, or severe weather.

How to Spot Structural Damage

Causes of structural damage include overloading, accidental impacts, fires, floods, earthquakes, and landslides, as well as gradual deterioration over time. Structural damage can present as cracks and splitting, corrosion, breakage and buckling, bubbling or sagging. Even a sudden increase in your utility bills can indicate structural damage.

Spotting potential problems early on and scheduling maintenance or repairs will help you keep your commercial building in its best condition. Timely repairs will prevent further damage, protecting your building and the businesses inside. When you need structural repairs, always hire a licensed contractor like The Structures Group.
