Whether you have a single multifamily building or a large complex, replacing a multifamily roofing system is no small project. That means it’s important to know when it’s time to replace your roof (or roofs) and when repairs will restore functionality while saving you money. Here are a few situations where you’ll want to bring in a multifamily roofing contractor to replace your roofing system.
No matter what it’s made from, every roof has an expected lifespan. Some roofs can last for longer than expected, but it’s still important to know how long you can expect your roofing system to last for. This is because the older your roof gets, the more likely it is that you will need to replace it. Roof repairs can extend the life of your multifamily roofing system, but they become less effective as your roof ages.
Another situation where repairs may not be the best option is when your roof sustains significant damage. This may include hail, high winds, fires, or other common sources of roof damage. If your multifamily family roof sustains damage across multiple parts of the roof or throughout the complex, it may be better in the long run to replace the roofing system than to attempt a repair.
Multifamily properties require significant upkeep to maintain for tenants. This includes your roofing system, which must be regularly inspected, repaired, cleaned, and much more. In addition, as your roof or roofs age, they become less efficient, which may increase energy costs as the roof becomes less effective at maintaining indoor temperatures and keeping moisture out of your buildings.
If repair, maintenance, and operating costs are significantly increasing year over year, it may be a sign that your roofing system needs to be replaced. It’s a good idea to schedule a comprehensive inspection with an expert multifamily roofing contractor to determine if your roof may be costing you money on annual upkeep.
Owning and managing a multifamily property requires careful planning to get the most from your investment. Making the decision to put money into your property can pay off well in the long run. If you’re considering how you can boost the profit from your multifamily building or complex, you may want to consult with a multifamily roofing contractor.
Replacing or upgrading roofs (for example, from asphalt shingles to metal roofing) can save money on repair costs, provide greater energy efficiency, and even help to attract tenants by beautifying your rental property.
Whether it’s a repair or roof replacement, any multifamily project is a major undertaking. This means it’s crucial to choose the right multifamily roofing contractor for the job. Here are a few questions to ask about each potential roofer you consider:
The best way to ensure quality with any roofing project is to work with a roofer that has demonstrated their skill with similar projects previously. Multifamily roofing projects have many moving parts, and roofing contractors that have experience in this area of roofing will be better able to handle the complex logistics required for these jobs.
Even better than experience: referrals. If a roofing contractor can point you to specific multifamily roofing projects they’ve completed this is a strong point in their favor.
Local roofing companies are best suited for any roofing project, but particularly when it comes to multifamily roofing. Local roofers will typically have good working relationships with manufacturers and distributors, which can bring better warranties and prices—and material prices add up quickly in multifamily roofing. Since they’re based closer, they will also be able to reduce transportation costs and keep to project timelines.
Â
Finally, local roofers have a better understanding of local building codes, regulations, and covenants that will apply to any multifamily roofing project. Overall, because these projects are much larger in scale, the benefits of a local roofer are difficult to overstate.
Proper roofing credentials both protect you as the customer from liability and establish the reliability of the contractor you work with. While some roofers may cut corners by forgoing licensing and insurance to reduce prices, this is not worth the risk. Uninsured roofers leave you liable in the event that accidental injuries or property damage occurs during your roofing project. With multifamily roofing, this risk is made even greater.
