When is it Time to Arrange for Flat Roofing Repairs and Maintenance?
We highly recommend that you start a maintenance routine today if you have not been thinking about the maintenance of your flat roof. This is because of the fact that this ensures that you are taking a proactive approach and won’t get any unsuspected surprises such as total roof failure or leaks in your roof. Because of the fact that flat roofing is flat – it’s important to be aware of potential issues in the roofline system because the roof will not naturally cause water to fall down. This means that the roof relies on its roofline system in order to drain and you will need to take good care of the roof itself. If it is unsafe for you to monitor or inspect your roof – always call in the experts.
You don’t want to wait for a big disaster to happen but sometimes they are unfortunately unavoidable. If there is an extreme weather event or your roof becomes damaged – you will want to have a reliable roofing company on call that you can rely on!
Understanding Your Flat Roof & Carrying Out Checks
As discussed – if it’s safe to do so you can inspect your roof and check for key indicators of issues. There are a number of aspects that you will want to think about and check when looking at your roof if it is safe to do so. Carry out the following checks:
- After extreme weather conditions – ensure that you check your roof and check that no debris has come off or there is damage to the roof.
- Check the roof for pooling of water and other issues because this can indicate that there are issues with the roofline system.
- Check for cracks or visible damage to the roof. This can be easier with flat roofing as there is a flat surface so you will be able to see all of the various areas.
If it’s not safe to access your roof:
- Always speak to the experts such as our expert team. We have specialist equipment that will allow us to access your roof safely.
- Regular maintenance is key and with some insurance claims – you will need to provide evidence that regular maintenance has been carried out. The experts can do this and provide you with receipts proving that works have been carried out.
- We have likely experienced issues such as potential issues that you may be experiencing so this allows us to identify issues that you may not have been able to identify.
