Why Fall Roof Maintenance Is Important
As the temperatures drop and the rains begin in the Pacific Northwest, it’s time to think about Fall Roof Maintenance.
Conducting preventive maintenance before the onset of rainy months can extend the life of your commercial roof and prepare it for the impending winter. At Wayne’s Roofing, we emphasize the importance of having your roof inspected before winter arrives. Not only to ensure the protection of your roof but because it’s the safest approach!
Here's why it's safest to hire a professional:
Roof safety practices can be easily overlooked by building owners and managers who lack the expertise of roofing contractors. Many aren't aware of the current OSHA requirements. Our roofing inspectors are well-versed in the safest inspection methods. Wayne’s Roofing, Inc. boasts the lowest experience modification rating (EMR) in the Washington Southern district, maintaining an impressive 20-year average EMR below .65.
Professional commercial roofers understand how to ensure safety on roofs, especially when they're wet or weather conditions are adverse. They are equipped to handle common roof hazards, such as skylights, soft decks caused by water damage, steep slope roofs, and safe access. Roof hatches and vent covers are also areas of concern and need to be protected during roofing work.
Unresolved issues during winter can expose your building to unwanted moisture and costly repairs. During inspections, it’s vital to look for various issues to prevent future damage. We check for visible tears, leaks, debris, or bubbling, which can lead to moisture problems if not addressed promptly. Common issues include excess debris, membrane separation or trapped moisture on flat roofs, and the proper functioning of gutters and trees, which can lead to clogs and excess weight.
Maintaining a partnership with a professional roofing contractor like Wayne’s Roofing is the best way to safeguard your roof. Their hands-on experience and extensive knowledge of various roofing systems make them the ideal choice for repairing and maintaining your roof. As an essential business, Wayne’s Roofing is available to address your roof repair needs. In some cases, they act as the eyes and ears for facility managers who may need remote assistance.
