Why Every Business Needs a Commercial Roof Inspection in Tampa

There’s no such thing as a roof that lasts forever. Like most things, roofs age and degenerate over time, leading to a myriad of issues, such as alligatoring, base flashing laps, base flashing splits, blisters, clogged drains, and cold welds. Needless to say, you probably don’t make your way up to the roof all that often; after all, the lion’s share of your business operations are conducted indoors. That said, there’s nothing to be gained by neglecting the roof of your commercial building.

Take a second to imagine that you’re in your conference room presenting a proposal to a potential client. You’re eager to form a partnership and are pulling out all the stops to “wow” them with your presentation. Suddenly, you notice the client dabbing at the top of their head. Your eyes start to travel upwards until you notice a dark patch in the ceiling. Your roof is leaking, and due to the situation, you’re at risk of losing more than just the money it would take to fix the problem. 

In moments like this, having already consulted a licensed and insured roofing contractor about a commercial roof inspection in Tampa could mean the difference between your most lucrative deal ever and a lost opportunity. If your commercial building requires a roof repair, recover, or replacement, rely on the trusted team at Aderhold Roofing Corporation.

We Offer the Most Reliable Roof Evaluation in Tampa

Let’s face it, the health of your roof is trending downward from the day it’s installed. Wear and tear is inevitable, which means that maintenance will be required at some point. If you want to avoid a scenario like the one mentioned above, you’ll need to have your roof evaluated sooner rather than later. 

Only a licensed and insured roofing contractor has the tools, experience, and knowledge to identify issues with flat roofs and thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) membranes commonly found on commercial buildings. Our evaluations go beyond a simple eye test. Aderhold Roofing contractors will scour your roof for signs of damage and present solutions accordingly. Additionally, we offer stairway and balcony inspections to help you unearth corrosion, cracks, improper and loose connections, rot, damaged railing, and more. After we complete a 360° commercial roof inspection in Tampa, we will provide a report detailing any potential issues and the ideal time frame for repair.

Flexible Roofing Options to Help Your Business Save Money

At Aderhold Roofing, we focus on solutions that work for you and your business. In many cases, there is simply no other option than to replace an entire roof, but this isn’t always the case, and we’re happy to explore your options, including:

• Roof Replacement: Many roofing contractors will simply tear off an existing roof so that they can quickly replace it and call it a day, but not Aderhold Roofing. If our roofing experts determine that a roof replacement is necessary, we will also assess the building’s roof deck, insulation, and exposed drainage. We will also check the slope of the roof and diagnose any structural issues that need to be addressed. We believe that, when our clients invest in a roof replacement, every faulty aspect of the roof should be replaced, not just the surface.
• Roof Recover: Sometimes, replacing an entire roof isn’t practical or cost-effective. We can reduce material usage and disposal costs by installing an additional layer of insulation on an existing roof. This protects the interior layer from water penetration and greatly reduces labor costs.
• Roof Repair: If one of our roofing contractors inspects your roof and finds signs of damage, they may suggest a roof repair. This is a cost-effective way to prevent damage from spreading to other parts of the roof. Punctures, leaks, and defects can be fixed by an experienced roofing contractor.
• Roof Preservation: An existing roof can be preserved with waterproof and light-reflective coatings to help reduce water penetration and heat damage. Furthermore, we can examine your existing roofing material and develop a plan to extend its life.
