So, what causes roof leaks and how can we fix them?
Pooling Water
If the surface of your commercial roof has a low slope, then it is prone to water pooling on top of the roof. Pooling water on your roof can lead to added weight and stress which can lead to roof damage. It is also crucial to have a functioning drainage system, if it is not properly functioning, it could lead to improper draining and more water leaks on your roof.
Faulty Seal
It is very common for commercial businesses to have things on their roofs such as pipes, AC and heating units, air ducts, and more. If those items are not completely sealed around the edges, they are prone to water leaks which can cause expensive repairs.
Old Age
As time goes on, your roof decays and becomes weaker. Dealing with the elements every day is no easy task and it takes a toll on your roof and increases the chance of leaks. The average lifespan of a commercial roof is 15 years. If your roof has surpassed its lifespan, it’s time for a replacement.
