3 Handy Tips on Winter Commercial Roof Maintenance

Keeping a sturdy and well-performing commercial roof should always be top priority for property managers. This is especially important during the winter months, where frequent snowfall and freezing temperatures can make your roofing system more susceptible to damage. To prevent this, you’ll need to be proactive about its maintenance. Read on as US Roofing, the trusted commercial and residential roofing company in the area, shares a few winter roof maintenance tips.

Commercial Roof Maintenance

  1. Clear the debris from your commercial roof. Because most commercial roofing systems are low-sloped, they are more at risk of drainage problems that can lead to standing water. If overlooked, standing water can break down the membrane of your commercial roof, not only making it easier for water to infiltrate the system, but also leaving it vulnerable to damage caused by harsh winter conditions. Fortunately, all you need to do to avoid that is to keep your roof clean by clearing away any debris beforehand.

  1. Have your commercial roof checked by a professional. Scheduling routine roof inspections and maintenance services from a trusted commercial roofing specialist, like US Roofing, can make a huge difference to your roof’s longevity. Set up a roof evaluation with us this winter and our trained and experienced team will check your system for broken seals, damaged material, congestion in the drainage areas and other possible issues. And if we find any or all of them, you can count on us to perform the necessary and most effective solution. 

  1. Keep your roof clear of snow buildup. Did you know that more than a foot of packed snow can cause damage to your roof? Snow buildup causes unnecessary strain on your commercial roof, compromising its structural integrity and increasing the risk of collapse. Before that happens, call US Roofing immediately for reliable and worry-free roof snow removal service. Trust us to make sure your system can remain sturdy and intact against snow accumulation.
