When it comes time to install new roofing on your commercial property, knowing what the process entails can help you prepare properly. It can also prevent surprises along the way and help you communicate more effectively with your roofing contractors throughout the process. Here's what you can expect from roof installation.

Your Guide to Commercial Roof Installation

Preparation

Before work begins, your contractor will provide a proposal that breaks down the scope and cost of the project. This information will give you some initial guidance, so you can better understand the labor and materials that will be involved.

Once you've signed on the dotted line, you'll agree on a start date. Your contractor will consider the weather to ensure the conditions are right for your new roofing, and they'll also take your scheduling needs into account. After all, you probably won't want the roof installation occurring during business hours.

A team manager will then assess the condition of the structure to determine any necessary safety requirements before getting started.

Installation

After arranging for all the tools, vehicles, equipment, and personnel needed, the installation will begin. To minimize interference with daily activities, the crew will work diligently to handle the job with as little noise and general disruption as possible. If it's not possible to avoid such disturbances, you might consider scheduling the work overnight, or on a day your business is closed.

Cleaning & Quality Control

After your new roofing is installed, the crew will then tidy the workspace by removing all of their equipment and any debris left on the rooftop.

They'll also assess the ground surrounding the building before leaving the site. If necessary, the crew will remove debris that fell to the ground while work took place.

A quality control technician will visit to inspect the quality of the work and provide suggestions for last-minute work before signing off on the job. You can also ask about maintaining the surface and protecting it from damage.
