Planned Maintenance & Commercial Roof Repair
A roof maintenance program is a proactive, scheduled strategy (typically annual or semi-annual) designed to extend a roof's lifespan, prevent costly premature failures, and identify minor issues like leaks, damaged flashing, or debris buildup before they escalate. It involves comprehensive inspections, cleaning, and minor repairs that maximize return on investment.
Henson Robinson Company’s roof survey and seal would include:
- A roof inspection consisting of cleaning out drainage components, and touching up any maintenance items like sealants, pitch pockets, etc.
- We will walk the entire roof to identify any current problems, and items that could become problems in the future. Information and pictures from the survey will be put into a report in which we will also assign each roof section a grade and a realistic life expectancy.
- Gun-grade sealant or membrane patches to items that need immediate repair.
- Upon completion of the survey, we will work up a proposal to provide more in-depth repairs/preventative maintenance i.e.: strip seams, reinforce corner flashings, as well as provide a more permanent repair (if necessary).
Every roof has conditions that are considered “maintenance items” by manufacturers and are never covered under an existing warranty if there is one. Typical maintenance items include sealants above terminations and counter flashings, and sealant in pitch pocket penetrations, punctures, etc. There are preventative maintenance repairs that can be done on every type of roof system, and these can extend the useful life of your roof. Most problems occur in the flashings, details, and penetrations. Fortifying the penetration details greatly improves the performance of the roof, as the field membrane often out-performs that which written warranties indicate.
