Making sure your commercial roofing project goes well will impact your business for years to come. It’s well worth taking the time to understand your needs and work closely with a professional roofing contractor to ensure you get the results you need.
Here are five of the most important things to keep in mind during planning:
- Choose the right roofing material. Roofing material affects the durability, longevity, and style of your roof, along with your budget. Make sure you consider all options, whether metal, tile, shingle, or otherwise.
- Pay close attention to building codes. Local building codes are often enforced closely for businesses and other commercial structures. Working with a local contractor ensures your roof meets the latest code requirements.
- Work with the right contractor. A commercial roofing project can represent a major investment, so take the time to find the right contractor. Evaluate how long they’ve been in the business, their accreditation and certifications, and their general reputation.
- Set your budget accordingly. Don’t underestimate the cost of roofing projects or approach them too optimistically. Get accurate quotes ahead of time and provide some contingency in your budget.
- Understand maintenance going forward. Making the most of your new commercial roof requires careful attention to maintenance and repairs. Be sure you set up a proper maintenance schedule to extend the lifespan of your roof.
