Questions to Ask About Your Commercial Roof Management Strategy

As a commercial property owner, it’s your responsibility to make sure that your roof is in great shape at all times. To that end, you need to work closely with a reliable contractor regarding commercial roof management and maintenance. They can help you create a strategy that will help you achieve your goals. 

Earl W. Johnston Roofing, a local contractor that provides high-quality tile roofing services, recommends asking these three important questions when developing a solid work plan for your commercial roof.

What Is the History of Your Roof?

It will be easier for your chosen contractor to manage your commercial roof if you are aware of its history, from the installation date to the manufacturer of the materials used. If your contractor thinks your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, they may recommend replacement. Also, remember to disclose to your contractor any roof damage that may have occurred over the years. You should provide them with maintenance records and photos too.

What Is Your Budget?

Roofing work can be a significant investment. Thus, your contractor should know if you have enough funds to invest in a high-quality roofing system or you’re on a fixed budget. Keep in mind that better roof materials ensure a longer lifespan and lower life-cycle costs. If you’re looking for more affordable options, your contractor may suggest strategies that match your budget. 

What Renovations Are You Planning for Your Property?

If you’re planning other renovations on your property, it’s best to discuss these with your contractor as well. Any additions or other structural innovations can make an impact on your roofing system. Thus, your contractor may advise you to delay major roof renovation until construction work is complete, or they may want to coordinate with the other professionals working on your property to achieve better results.
