After a long and exhausting winter, Spring is here to stay! The nice weather feels great, but it also means that we need to think about how to prepare a commercial roof for the drastic change in weather we will be experiencing. The increase in humidity and temperature means that tornadoes and severe thunderstorms will be popping up and will continue until the end of October. Tornadoes alone impact the United States economy by roughly $1 billion dollars every year. Although there is no way to stop a tornado when it occurs, The Duerson Corporation has some advice on how to minimize the impact and recover as soon as possible.

Roof Preparation Beforehand

If you haven’t done so already, get a free roof analysis from us to check the current state of your roof. The Winter of 2017/2018 was a cold, long winter which may have taken a toll on your roof. If there are holes in your roof, clogged drains, or destroyed pieces membrane, water from rainfalls can seep into your commercial building. This can potentially cause flooding and mold outbreaks, costing you thousands of dollars in remediation bills and downtime. If your roof needs it, a roof repair early in the Spring can be the difference in your commercial roof surviving a powerful storm. That is why we use Duro-Last products on all of our roofing jobs. A strong roof is a stable roof!

Response After A Natural Disaster

Unfortunately, natural disasters have the power to destroy buildings no matter how much preparation they have had ahead of time. If your commercial roof has been severely damaged to the point of no return, we can assist you with a new roof replacement. It’s important that you have your roof repaired or place after a storm in a timely manner, otherwise more damage can occur.
