Commercial roof repair refers to the process of fixing or restoring a commercial roof that has been damaged, worn, or is experiencing issues that could compromise its functionality. This may include repairing leaks, replacing damaged sections, fixing punctures or holes, resealing seams, or addressing issues caused by weathering, wear and tear, or structural damage. The goal of commercial roof repair is to extend the roof’s lifespan, prevent further damage, and ensure the roof continues to protect the building effectively.
Repairs can vary depending on the roofing material (e.g., TPO, EPDM, metal, or asphalt) and the specific damage. Common commercial roof repairs include:
Leak repairs: Fixing leaks caused by damaged membranes or flashing.
Patching: Sealing holes, cracks, or punctures.
Seam repairs: Reattaching or sealing seams that have become loose or damaged.
Flashing repairs: Ensuring that flashing around vents, skylights, and chimneys are properly sealed to prevent water intrusion.
Re-coating: Applying a new layer of roof coating to restore the roof’s protective layer.
Timely roof repairs can help avoid costly replacements and ensure the integrity of the building.
