How to Choose a Commercial Roofing Contractor?

Things to Look for When Choosing a Commercial Roofing Company

Your roof works day and night to protect your business property against the elements and intruders. It’s imperative that you take care of any issues as soon as disaster strikes. It doesn’t matter if it’s small leak or the whole roof has caved in, AF Roofing are the type of professionals that give a service which lasts. It’s very true that finding a commercial roofing company that you can trust isn’t easy. Sadly a lot of businesses are only in it for a quick payment. 

If you don’t research a company before you hire them it could cost you greatly, we have written these simple points to help you choose the right Commercial Roof repair service in Falkirk.  

  • Search locally:  Find a business with a premises in your local area and a good reputation. Some roofing companies simply don’t last long in the industry
  • Consider experience: The roofer you should seek will have years of experience as a roofer and various qualifications.
  • Always ask for recommendations: Ask your family or even your friends for recommendation of a roofing Contractor they have used. 
  • Insurance isn’t debatable: Always check that the roofing contractor you select has insurance, NEVER consider a company that doesn’t have any.  
  • Price should not be the sole deciding factor: Ask yourself why? Why is this roofing company charging me so little? Are they using the cheapest materials around? Will they use quick and easy installation techniques to keep costs low? Cheaper is not always better, it could cost you much more in the long run.

What is The Difference Between Residential and Commercial Roofing?

You might think that all roofs are the same, but it’s really not that simple. So what are the differences between residential and commerical roofing?  Well commercial roofing is generally for the types of buildings that hold businesses, those buildings may be office roofs, warehouse roofs and so. When damage occurs on a roof it can be expensive!  Both types of roofs need roofing materials and to be installed by an experienced and qualified roofing contractors; as we are commercial roofing contractors in Falkirk, we know it is so important to find the right commercial roofing system for each structure. These can differ and include but not limited to:

 

The Design

Are commercial roofs different? Yes, commercial roofs can look different when compared to other roofs. We often find commercial roofing can be flat or has a small slope and due to the floor space required it usually has a much larger roof than that of a residential roof. The weight of equipment that is housed on the roof and the need to cover a larger area is the difference that commercial roofing and residential roofing have. Residential properties do not have such issues and so are easier to maintain or replace.

Roofing Materials

The materials for private and business rooftops will in general, differ contingent upon the kind of rooftop, climate conditions and cost. Commonly, a business rooftop has a level incline and private rooftops will in general be more extreme. It takes a professional roofer to satisfy the needs for both and offer sound counsel about the materials that work best for each rooftop type. As business roofers in Falkirk, we only use the very best materials from Falkirk suppliers.

The Major Differences

When it comes to residential properties, roofing and cladding are easy to install to some extent. A big hurdle is when they want a chimney installed, but we also deal with solar panels and the installation of shingles.
When it comes to commercial roofs such as schools or hospitals, choosing a roofing company that are familiar with the difficulties they present would be wise, for example airflow systems, piping and smoke stacks.
If you require a commercial roofing contractor to work provide school roofing or hospital roofing in Falkirk, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

The Cost of Roof Repair

How To Maintain a Commercial Felt Roof

Why Choose a Commercial Felt Roofing System?

The felt roofing is very a very popular choice for business owners choosing a commercial roofing system because the cost is low low in comparison.  As far as roofing systems, it’s the cheapest type of roofing for flat roof systems which means it will cost the business less when work starts. The felt roof is also low cost when it comes to repairs, When a section of the roof requires repair, it’s as easy as removing that section and replacing it with new felt. 

Another great choice for choosing felt roofing for your commercial property is it’s great ability to be laid to any size and can be installed on most roof types.

Having a felt roof installed on your commercial property improves the look of the building, it’s even possible to select a colour of felt to match the building, over-all a felt roof presents a clean finish.

How easy is it to maintain a Commercial Felt Roofing system?

Regular Maintenance is required on commercial roofs to ensure it remains in working order. We often find that businesses that don’t maintain their roof on a regular basis experience problems that have occurred for a long period of time undetected, meaning as the damage gets worse, the work required to fix the issue will increase along with the cost.  That being said, obviously different roofs require a various levels of maintenance.

A great benefit of a felt roofing system for commercial properties is the reliability to hold up n even the harshest of weather conditions.

So what is the maintenance of a felt roofing system like? Well the good news is it’s pretty simple:

  • Check the felt roof on a regular basis for any issues.
  • Ensure you remove debris such as rubbish, leaves and branches.
