Roof Maintenance

For property managers and owners of commercial properties, roof maintenance is often overlooked. Simply put, if you want something to perform, you have to maintain it. If you don’t do it, you’re putting your property at risk of damage from leaks, not to mention the risk of your guarantee coverage being jeopardized. Kidd Roofing has joined a program developed by GAF, North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, that certifies us as maintenance professionals.
 

Kidd Roofing will perform the following vital services for your roof:

• Perform yearly inspections
• Communicate roof maintenance needs to you
• Make maintenance-related repairs as necessary
• Provide documentation to you that needed repairs have been made

What Wear Roofs Out?

• Exposure… Either long-term exposure to the elements (sun, water, freeze-thaw) or shorter-term exposure to damaging air pollutants and chemicals
• Structural Movement… Such as building settlement or expansion/contraction not accommodated by the roofing system
• Biological Growth… Such as vegetation in areas of standing water or algae
• Not Fixing Problems Promptly… These can add up to a much shorter roof life-e.g., if a small problem is not repaired, then a large amount of insulation can be damaged
• Forgetting About Maintenance… This is perhaps the biggest cause of premature roof failure
• Change in the Use of the Building… e.g., and increase in the interior relative humidity of a building can cause severe condensation problems within the roofing system
