As winter approaches, safeguarding your commercial roof becomes paramount. Heavy snowfall, ice dams, and freezing temperatures can wreak havoc on an unprepared roof, leading to leaks, structural damage, and costly repairs. At Shield Guard Roofing, we offer comprehensive commercial roof maintenance services specifically designed to winterize your roof and ensure it endures the harsh winter season.
Failing to properly prepare your roof for winter can lead to disastrous consequences:
Clogged gutters and drains can cause water to pool on your roof. This ponding water can freeze, forming ice dams that prevent further drainage. As temperatures fluctuate, the freeze-thaw cycle can cause cracks and leaks in your roof membrane. In extreme cases, the weight of accumulated ice can lead to roof collapse.
Leaks caused by ice dams or clogged drains allow water to infiltrate your building, potentially damaging your inventory, equipment, and even compromising the structural integrity of your building. Mold growth is another risk associated with water infiltration, posing health hazards and requiring costly remediation.
Dealing with roof leaks and repairs during winter can significantly disrupt your business operations. Proactive maintenance minimizes the risk of winter-related roof issues, ensuring business continuity throughout the season.
Our skilled technicians thoroughly remove all debris, leaves, and branches from the roof surface and gutters. This ensures unimpeded water flow and prevents blockages that can lead to ponding.
We meticulously clean your drains and gutters, removing any accumulated debris and ensuring proper drainage away from your roof. This minimizes the risk of ice dams forming and prevents water infiltration.
We inspect all roof flashing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and AC unit curbs for any signs of damage or deterioration. We then apply premium silicone sealant to create a watertight barrier, preventing leaks at these vulnerable points.
Our experienced inspectors conduct a thorough visual inspection of your roof membrane, identifying any existing tears, punctures, or loose seams. Addressing these issues promptly prevents further damage during the harsh winter months.
