How Commercial Roofers Replace Your Roof

Business owners are always talking about their metaphorical overhead, but how often do they think about what’s literally overhead? In fact, the literal overhead is one of the most important aspects of any business. Your roof is an investment in and of itself and protects both the inventory and the people beneath it. So, in order to protect both your enterprise and your employees, it’s essential that you have a roof you can rely on.

Today, we’re exploring the steps in our process of building a new roof for your business.

Assessment and Consultation

The first step for any roofing project is an assessment. Here, we’ll begin by visiting your property and evaluating the condition of your current roof. Commercial roofers today can use a wide variety of tools during the assessment process, but mostly (and most reliably) they’ll perform a visual inspection. Massive enterprises with extensive roofs may want to consider a commercial roofing company that offers other forms of roof inspections, though, such as aerial drone inspections or satellite imagery inspections.

Once the assessment is complete, we’ll meet with you to discuss our findings. From there, we’ll provide you with some possible options and any recommendations that we may have.

Roof Removal

Now that the assessment is complete and we’ve consulted with you, our professionals will begin the roof removal process. Though it might look like a commercial roofing company at this stage is simply tearing off the roofing on your business, it’s actually a surprisingly careful process. Throughout the process, it’s important that the roof beneath the shingles isn’t damaged, which can cause unnecessary problems.

During this stage, commercial roofers will also take great care to dispose of the old roofing materials responsibly.

New Roof Installation

Now that your old roof is gone, we can finally begin installing your new one!

This process begins with an inspection of your roof’s substrate—that sub-layer beneath the roof we talked about earlier. That will help inform our decisions when installing your new roof. This is an essential process, because we’ll need to decide how we proceed with installing the new roof.  After all, different roofing materials will need different preparation, and we’ll need to get a look at the substrate to see what that entails
