As we watch extreme weather events in other parts of the United States, remember to think about the weather that your commercial roof endures all year round, year after year. When was the last time you had your Denver commercial roofing inspection performed? Your commercial building is one of your most important investments. You don’t want it to lose value because of damage caused to the roof which allowed damage to the building underneath.
Damaging Winds
The winds in Colorado can cause a lot of damage to your commercial roof. If you have experienced high winds, you will definitely want to schedule that roof inspection. Winds can tear things off the roof that are supposed to be there but can also carry things, like tree limbs, to the roof that do damage when they land. Damage done to the surface of the roof will allow water to seep in and cause damage under the roof.
Freezing Rain
With the changing climate, we are seeing more freezing rain in Denver. Freezing rain, as well as rain that falls and later freezes, can wreak havoc on a commercial roof. Rainwater that seeps into any crack or space caused by existing roof damage can freeze and expand causing the crack or space to get bigger. Once water gets under the roof, it can cause wood rot or mold in the structure below. Standing water will also cause deterioration to the roof, especially if it freezes. Peak to Peak Roofing and Exteriors offers complimentary Denver commercial roofing inspections.
Hot Temperatures
Buildings at one mile above sea level have one less mile of atmosphere for the sun’s radiation to travel through and be absorbed. A commercial building in Denver experiences extreme heat in the summer due to this radiation. Every year, we have many days with highs in the 90s and even a few 100s. This intense heat can stress your commercial building roof. A neglected roof will have worse problems when the hot sun starts baking it.
Rain and Hail
Another summer hazard to Denver commercial roofs is rain and hail. Denver is located in “Hail Alley” which basically means we get serious hailstorms. The hail is usually accompanied by copious amounts of rain. Hail can damage the surface of the roof and then the rainwater can leak through the breaks in the surface caused by the hail. It doesn’t stop there. Subsequent rain storms will continue to deposit water on the roof which will continue to leak in damaging the structure below.
