When the roof over your business has become damaged in any way, it’s important to schedule the necessary repairs right away to prevent the damage from growing, protect the interior of your building, protect your inventory and assets, and extend the lifespan of your roof. To schedule repairs right away, you will need to know the warning signs to watch for. Here are three signs that you need a commercial roofing repair.
- Ponding water: Especially if you have a flat roof, you need to watch for any ponding water or water that stays on your roof longer than usual. This could be a sign that the water is not draining from your roof properly, and you will need a commercial roofing repair to resolve it to prevent any water damage.
- Visible holes in the roof membrane: Any holes in the roof can lead to leaks and potential water damage inside your building. If you notice any tears or holes, even small ones, in the roof membrane, you will want to schedule a commercial roofing repair right away.
- Storm damage: If there has recently been a severe storm in the area and your roof suffered any amount of damage, you should schedule a commercial roofing repair.
