Do you have a problem with your commercial roof that is beyond the point where patching will fix it? You want to restore your roof in a way that will be affordable and effective as a long-term solution. A Re-Ply roofing system can be an excellent choice for your building, especially when you look at the many restoration methods available to you.
Re-Ply roofing is a process that involves applying a membrane over your existing roof, which makes it weatherproof with a seamless finish. Businesses are considering this specific form of roof restoration for the following reasons.
Re-Play Roofing Is Affordable
Complete roof replacement can be expensive and outside of your budget when you combine the larger size of a commercial roof with the cost of materials. Metal roofing can cost as much a $15 per square foot, and a flat roof made of single-ply material can cost up to $14 per square foot. You'll definitely need an alternative option if you are not ready to spend that much money on roof replacement.
A Re-Ply roof system is going to be a restorative technique that ends up being much more affordable than a complete roof replacement. The low cost is due to the material being installed on top of your existing roof, so you do not have a lot of the costs associated with a roof replacement.
For example, you don't have to do any work to remove the old roofing material, and you don't need to spend money disposing of it. All these additional expenses add up when you factor in the large size of your building and can lead to big savings.
Re-Play Roofing Has Less Downtime
The loud, long, and disruptive installation is one of the problems that people run into when they start the roof replacement. It is hard to understand what the process is to replace a roof until it begins, and by then it is too late to change to a different method. You will end up with employees that can't get their work done due to the noise, or customers that would rather go elsewhere because of the disruption.
Your business won't be disrupted when you use the Re-Ply restoration process. Down time is not something that you need to deal with, and you can have it done during the work week while others are using the building. The installation process can make restoration very appealing if you are concerned about lost productivity and revenue.
Re-Ply Roofing Is Energy Efficient
The finished product of a Re-Ply roofing system will be an energy-efficient restoration option as well. The material is watertight and highly reflective, which is a great combination that leads to energy savings over time. The surface temperature of your roof will drop by as much as 40 percent and allow less heat transfer to the inside of your building.
Re-Ply Roofing Comes With A Warranty
You may feel a bit hesitant to restore your roof because all the work is being done on top of your existing roofing material. However, a Re-Ply roofing system is going to come with a warranty that gives you the peace of mind that you made a great choice.
With warranties starting at 10 years, you will know that you are covered from problems like manufacturing defects in the material, and the labor cost of having the roof fixed if there is a problem out of your control. This lets you know that the contractor stands behind the product and it will withstand the test of time.
