Benefits of Bi-Annual Roof Observations
Roof observations are an important preventative measure to ensure that issues are identified before they can potentially cause major damage. Pyramid Waterproofing’s roofing experts perform thorough observations and assess all potential damage to your building’s roof.
Identifying Damage Early
One of the most impactful benefits of roof observations is that problems can be identified before they cause major damage. Sometimes roofs may have hidden damage that isn’t noticeable to the untrained eye or only able to be seen from the top of the roof. Periodic observations, usually done bi-annually or after any major weather event, can identify issues like leaks before they cause major water damage or mold forms.
Financial Savings
Generally, roof observations are not as expensive as repairs that may come as a result of ignoring major problems. By having bi-annual observations for your commercial roof, any problems can be identified before they get worse, which will save you money in the long run. A small leak costs much less to repair than a leak that causes major water damage.
Energy Efficiency
Damage to insulation can cause energy bills to skyrocket during hotter months, as the building’s air conditioning has to work harder to cool down the building. Observations thoroughly check your commercial roof for damage in all areas, including insulation, so finding damage to your insulation or having confirmation that it is properly installed will ensure that your building is properly cooling and heating.
Preventing Vegetation Build-Up
Vegetation build-up on a roof can clog gutters, preventing proper drainage, and can cause water to pool on roofs, making leaks more likely. Observations check gutters and all areas of your roof for vegetation build-up and debris that could cause damage.
