Want to put off the need for a new roof? We help businesses get more years our of their current roof. Here are tips to extend the lifespan of your roofing membrane and reduce your rooftop risk. ⁠ ⁠⁠ 1. Get a Thorough Inspection Each Year: Annual inspections are a must, not just one-offs.

Implement Preventative Maintenance for Your Rooftop Units: Especially for businesses like restaurants where managing grease is crucial considering grease that is not contained will erode your roofing membrane. ⁠ ⁠⁠ 3. Monitor Roof Access: Know who’s on your roof and why.
