Creative Construction Group provides commercial and residential roof installation services along with other home improvement offerings. We have served our community since 2008 and we have certifications from top manufacturers. That’s why you can count on us for quality roof installations. We discuss five commercial roof installation mistakes that a contractor should never make:
Using Frayed Extension Cords – Your commercial roof contractor should double-check their equipment all the time and check for damage to their extension cords. Using frayed extension cords is always a bad idea because the risk of roof damage and property loss is significant. In addition, the people working on the roof are also at risk for electrical shock.
Using a Defective Roof Membrane – Your contractor should always inspect the membrane that they are about to install before using it on your commercial roofing system. Substandard materials and weathering cycles can cause seams to fail, which can lead to roof leaks and ruined insulation. Fortunately, as a commercial roof replacement expert, Creative Construction Group won’t make this mistake. We’re proud of our attention to detail and our excellent roofing materials.
Using Old Roof Insulation – Some inexperienced and shoddy contractors use worn, weathered and old insulation on their roofing projects as a cost-cutting measure. You should always verify that the construction materials you receive are in new condition. Old insulation can void the roof warranty and affect your new roof’s performance.
Overheating Roof Asphalt – If your roofing contractor uses roof asphalt for your project, then they should handle it correctly. Asphalt kegs must be broken into smaller pieces before loading them into an asphalt kettle. If they are not broken down, asphalt pieces will take longer to melt, which can tempt an inexperienced contractor to overheat the asphalt.
Using Rotted Wood Nailers – All the existing components before a commercial roof replacement should be replaced. Some contractors forget this and simply install new wood nailers on top of rotted wood nailers. This will increase the risk of roof damage.
