Our Commercial Roof Maintenance Offerings

Every commercial roofing system requires unique maintenance practices. At Skyline Contracting, we customize our maintenance programs to suit the specific needs of your roofing system, business, and budget. However, there are a few key services that we provide for every commercial roof maintenance plan.

Multiple Roof Inspections Per Year

A thorough commercial roof inspection is the first line of defense against roofing problems. Issues like leaks rarely appear overnight. Instead, they’re typically a result of many years of damage and neglect. We include multiple annual roof inspections in our maintenance program to ensure you always know the status of your commercial roofing system—and to enable you to fix problems before they worsen.

Full Photo Documentation

Another advantage of hiring the experts at Skyline for commercial roof maintenance is to keep documentation of your efforts to care for your roof. While many manufacturers offer warranties on their roofing systems, neglect and poor maintenance can lead to that warranty becoming void. By providing you with full photo documentation of your roof, you always have a paper trail establishing that you took the needed steps to keep your roof in good condition.

Cleaning and Debris Removal

As most commercial roofing systems have very low slopes, this allows dirt and debris to accumulate over time. Besides making your roof look dirty, debris can also interfere with the performance of your commercial roof—and especially your drainage system, which is critical for keeping rainwater from ponding. During our thorough inspection, we’ll take the time to remove the most common types of debris from your roof to ensure drains are kept clear.

Seamless Service, Minimal Disruption

We understand the importance of maintaining your business operations. That’s why we work efficiently and discreetly, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily activities. Our goal is to keep your roof in peak condition without compromising your productivity.

What Is the Lifespan of a Commercial Roof?

The lifespan of a commercial roof may range anywhere from 10 to 40 years—or even longer, depending on the material used in its construction. However, most commercial roofing systems will fall in the 20–30 year range. Wondering how you can extend the life of your commercial roof? The answer is clear: regular commercial roof maintenance is key for maximizing the life of your roofing system.

Commercial Roof Maintenance vs. Residential Roof Maintenance

Commercial roof maintenance requires a different approach compared to residential roof maintenance. Commercial buildings often have larger, more complex roof systems that need specialized attention. Factors like the size, materials, and usage of the building necessitate a tailored maintenance strategy to ensure the roof’s longevity and performance. Regular inspections, proactive repairs, and preventative measures are crucial for commercial roofs to withstand the demands of heavy foot traffic, extreme weather conditions, and the unique challenges of a business environment. Investing in professional commercial roof maintenance can save businesses significant costs in the long run by avoiding costly roof replacements and minimizing disruptions to daily operations.

Why Hire a Certified Roofing Specialist?

Choosing a commercial roofing specialist over a general contractor or handyman offers several advantages. Specialists have deep expertise in commercial roofing, allowing them to handle complex systems and detect issues that others might miss. They use high-quality, industry-approved materials and techniques tailored to commercial needs, providing customized solutions for repairs, replacements, or maintenance. Investing in a commercial roofing specialist ensures you save time, money, and avoid future headaches, with the confidence that your roof is in expert hands.

Roofing Problems? The Clock Is Ticking!

The biggest reason why commercial roof maintenance is so important is because roofing issues tend to worsen over time. Even minor damage is a vulnerability for your roof—and that vulnerability allows things like water to work their way deeper into your roofing system and cause more structural issues.

As problems worsen, they also compound, and before you know it that minor issue could compromise your roof entirely—leading to an expensive repair or even a premature roof replacement. However, roof maintenance and minor repairs are affordable services that can add years to the lifespan of your roof. 

Think of commercial roof maintenance like a regular visit to the doctor. The sooner you know something is wrong, the faster you’ll be able to respond and prevent major problems!

  • Here are some tips for maintaining a commercial roof:
  • Conduct regular inspections biannually to detect and address issues early.
  • Keep the roof clean to prevent debris from clogging drains and causing water buildup.
  • Promptly repair minor issues like cracks and loose fasteners to prevent larger problems.
  • Ensure proper functioning of the drainage system to avoid water pooling.
  • Trim surrounding vegetation to prevent damage from overhanging branches.
  • Apply reflective coatings or sealants to protect against UV damage and extend the roof’s lifespan.
  • Consider upgrading to a more durable and energy-efficient roofing option when nearing the end of the current roof’s lifespan.

Commercial roofs should typically be cleaned as needed based on environmental factors and the specific conditions of the roof. However, a general guideline is to schedule roof cleaning at least once or twice a year.

As a general guideline, roof drains should be inspected and cleaned at least once or twice a year. However, buildings with specific environmental or usage conditions may require more frequent cleaning to maintain optimal drainage performance and prevent potential water damage to the roof and building interior.

Late spring or early summer offers the ideal window for roof cleaning. An annual or bi-annual spring cleaning is important for clearing away grime, particularly following a damp winter and early spring. We have seen cases where roofs need to be cleaned once a month in order to keep roof drains free of debris.

Yes, a commercial roof can qualify as an improvement property under tax regulations. Specifically, it may fall under the category of Qualified Improvement Property (QIP) if the work meets certain criteria outlined in tax laws. QIP generally refers to interior improvements made to nonresidential buildings after the building was first placed in service.
