Signs Your New Commercial Building Needs New Commercial Roofing
Do you need to have new commercial roofing put on your new commercial building you just bought or leased? If you are leasing, then check your lease agreement to see what responsibilities you have in getting a new roof put in because you may not be liable for the new roof at all. Your landlord or other owners of the building may be responsible for all roof repairs and replacement.
However, if you have just bought your commercial building, then any commercial roofing and other needs are your responsibility. Your building has to be reliable and safe for you and your employees and customers, and a roof that leaks or has other issues is going to damage inventory, appliances, machinery, and more.
Here are signs your commercial roofing needs should be addressed right away.
Your ceilings and walls have water stains on them
Assuming that any water stains in your commercial building's ceilings or walls is from old water damage is not wise. You need to have a commercial roofing specialist come to your property to determine if the water stains are from your roof and if they are, how old they are. Water damage can leave lasting and expensive damage that you should address even if you believe the damage is older in the first place.
Your commercial roofing materials are old or dated
How old is your commercial roofing? You should have a detailed report of any roofing or replacements of your roof in the last several years and if you don't have any new roof repairs or replacements done in any reports you get, you may be due for a new roof anyway. Any roofing needs you have should be able to be met by your commercial roofing specialist. In the end, your roof is going to be one of the biggest investments you make in your commercial building, but this investment should last you a very long time.
