FROM OUR PROJECT COLLECTIONIdentify the material before choosing the repair
Commercial roofing uses systems with different seam and attachment methods. A repair product that suits one membrane or prior coating may be unsuitable for another. The contractor should identify the existing surface, examine its condition and describe the preparation needed for the proposed material to connect properly.
Surface work is not a substitute for addressing wet insulation, damaged decking or a related drainage defect. If those conditions are suspected, ask whether testing or a controlled opening is needed to define the affected area. Keep the additional investigation and any resulting repair separate enough in the estimate to understand their costs.
