Planning For Commercial Roofing Projects
The roof on your commercial building is designed to withstand some of the most extreme changes Mother Nature throws its way. Yet sooner or later, the time will come for you to have the roof on your property replaced.
Depending on the size of the structure and other factors, replacing the roof on residential properties is quite a process. Given this fact, you can likely imagine how much more is involved in a commercial roofing project.
Elite Roofing Services has supplied the Tampa Bay area with commercial and residential roofing services for more than two decades. Throughout their tenure, they have discovered a common process that future customers should familiarize themselves with before their commercial roofing project begins.
Collaborative Planning
When you hire a roofing company like Elite Roofing Services, they will likely outline all project guidelines for your commercial roofing project. These guidelines not only detail all the duties on the roofing company’s part, it also contains elements that you as the customer must do as well.
After conception, the planning of your project is among the first details that the roofing company highlights in their project guidelines. This is essentially the ‘script’ that their team will follow to ensure the job is done skillfully, on budget, and safely.
Having the roof repaired or replaced on your commercial property is not a light undertaking. Your structure likely houses equipment, products, or a variety of other items integral to your operation. So while the roofing company has their own safety measures in mind, consider relocating your assets inside if possible.
How Long Will It Take?
Because a commercial roofing project is often a much larger undertaking than a residential one, it is to be expected that the length of said project will be longer. But what exactly does ‘longer’ mean in roofing project terms?
A general rule of thumb in roofing project lengths is that there is a correlation between the time it takes to complete the job and the overall square footage of the property. If the average residential home is somewhere around 2,000 square feet, taking about a day or so with a full crew, it can be expected that a much larger commercial property could take a few days to a week.
Other factors can greatly influence the speed at which a commercial roofing project is completed. These include, but are not limited to, how many layers of material must be torn from the old roof, if the roof itself must be changed, and what type of material is used for the new roof.
