Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Most Common Signs That My Commercial Roof Needs Repair Or Replacement?

Visible water leaks, which often appear as stains on the ceiling or walls inside the building, are the most obvious warning sign. You should also look for standing water or "ponding" on the roof surface that remains for more than 48 hours after rain. Exterior indicators include tears, cracks, blistering, or bubbling of the membrane, which expose underlying layers to the elements. Recurring issues, frequent repair needs, and a sudden spike in energy bills also point toward a failing, inefficient roof system.

How Often Should A Commercial Roof Be Inspected, Especially In The Illinois Climate?

Due to the extreme temperature fluctuations and harsh weather of the Illinois climate, commercial roofs should be professionally inspected at least twice a year. Scheduling these inspections in the spring and fall is ideal, as it allows the roof to be checked for damage caused by winter ice and summer heat. Additionally, you should always schedule an immediate inspection after any major weather event, such as severe hailstorms or periods of high winds. Regular inspections are crucial for identifying small issues before they escalate into costly, widespread damage that compromises your building's integrity.

Will A Commercial Roof Replacement Project Disrupt My Daily Business Operations?

While any major construction project can cause minor disruptions, professional commercial roofers take steps to minimize the impact on your business. Most contractors can schedule noisy or heavy work, such as tearing off the old roof, during off-peak hours, evenings, or weekends. They will work in controlled phases, sectioning off areas of the roof to keep the remainder of the building operational and safe. Clear communication and careful management of traffic, debris, and safety zones are crucial to minimizing the impact on your staff and customers.

How Do I Choose The Correct Roofing System For My Specific Commercial Building?

The best roofing system is determined by several key factors, including your budget, the roof's slope, and your building's functional use. For low-slope roofs, modern single-ply membranes, such as TPO and EPDM, are popular choices, offering excellent durability and energy efficiency. You must also consider the local climate, foot traffic on the roof for maintenance, and whether your building requires chemical resistance, like in a restaurant or factory setting. Consulting with a certified commercial roofing contractor is the most reliable way to select the properly sized, code-compliant system with the longest lifespan.
