FROM OUR PROJECT COLLECTIONIdentify the material before selecting the repair method
Commercial roofs can have different membranes or coatings on adjoining sections. A repair product suitable for one surface may not be appropriate for another, particularly where previous materials have been applied. Ask the contractor to identify the existing system and explain the proposed connection. If wet insulation, damaged decking or a drainage concern is suspected, ask whether further investigation is needed before a surface repair is priced. The proposal should say what the assessment established and how unresolved conditions could change the scope, rather than assuming that every leak can be addressed with another patch.
