Evaluating most common commercial roofing issues

No matter how well the roof is installed or how high-quality the materials are, at some time in the useful life of a commercial roofing system repairs will need to be made to keep the roof from leaking or being further damaged.

Whether the issue is a result of normal wear and tear, a severe weather event or a defective element in the roofing system, it’s important to have an expert diagnose and correct the problem before it turns into a big issue.

Our company is based in Texas and we’re proud to serve the Sugar Land area and beyond. We have satisfied clients all over Texas and Louisiana and we specialize in commercial roofing repair and installation.

When it comes to roofing repair, we have years of experience and as you can imagine we have run into all kinds of issues when diagnosing roof issues.

The difficult task when addressing roof leaks, especially in commercial buildings with flat or low-slope roofs, is finding the source of the leak. Since water tends to run sideways through any channel it can locate, most of the time the leak itself is not happening where you see water coming through the ceiling.

Some of the areas where we begin to check are at contact points in membranes, flashing on vents, chimneys, etc., and places where equipment sits on the roofs.

Sometimes membrane systems are installed using nails rather than an industrial grade adhesive. When this happens, the membrane is more likely to tear or develop small holes over time and this is a common cause of leaks.

Membrane systems also are heated to bond together and occasionally these bonds break over time which can cause the roof to leak.

Commercial roofs are often complex due to the nature of the building. For example, a restaurant might have a large vent with flashing around it and if this flashing is not installed perfectly a leak can develop quickly.

In other structures, equipment like HVAC units are installed on the roof. This is common in office buildings and apartments, and occasionally the weight of this equipment can cause a leak as well.

These are all problem areas and usually the first places we check when trying to locate leaks. Other times, severe weather or high winds can cause tears in the roofing system, which is another common source of roofing issues.

If you have a leak in your building or suspect your roof could be nearing the age when leaks may occur, we will be happy to meet with you and determine the status of your roof free of charge.

If we do any repairs, we always stand by our work and offer an industry-leading warranty.

On any repair we do, we warranty the work for two years. This ensures we do quality work every time and provides peace of mind for our clients.
