    Quality Roofing Repairs Roof After Hail Damage

    roof repair after a hail stormReviving Your Commercial Roof: Expert Strategies for Repairing Hail Damage

    When hailstorms strike, they pose a significant threat to commercial properties, particularly their roofs. Hail damage can compromise the structural integrity of your roof, leading to leaks, water intrusion, and potential interior damage. At Quality Roofing, we specialize in commercial roofing repair, including addressing the aftermath of hailstorms. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll delve into the essential steps for repairing hail damage on commercial roofs, empowering you with the knowledge needed to safeguard your property and investments.

    Understanding Hail Damage on Commercial Roofs: Commercial roofs, often flat or low-sloped, are susceptible to hail damage in unique ways. Unlike residential roofs, commercial roofing materials such as single-ply membranes, built-up roofing (BUR), and modified bitumen may exhibit different signs of hail damage, including:

    1. Punctures or tears: Hailstones can puncture or tear single-ply membranes, compromising their waterproofing capabilities and exposing the underlying insulation or substrate.
    2. Membrane bruising: Hail impact can cause bruising or indentation on the surface of single-ply membranes, potentially weakening their strength and durability over time.
    3. Damage to flashing and seals: Hailstorms can damage metal flashing, seals, and penetrations on commercial roofs, leading to leaks and water intrusion around vents, HVAC units, and other rooftop equipment.
    4. Granule loss and membrane degradation: Hail impact may result in granule loss and surface degradation on built-up roofing systems, reducing their resistance to UV rays and accelerating deterioration.

    Assessing and Repairing Hail Damage: After a hailstorm, prompt assessment and repair of hail damage are crucial to prevent further deterioration and maintain the integrity of your commercial roof. Here’s a systematic approach to repairing hail damage on commercial roofs:

    1. Professional Inspection: Schedule a thorough inspection of your commercial roof by a qualified roofing contractor. A trained professional can assess the extent of hail damage, identify vulnerable areas, and recommend appropriate repair solutions.
    2. Repair or Replacement of Damaged Membranes: Depending on the severity of hail damage, damaged sections of single-ply membranes may need to be repaired or replaced. This involves patching punctures, tears, or bruised areas to restore the waterproofing integrity of the roof.
    3. Flashing and Seal Repair: Inspect metal flashing, seals, and penetrations for hail damage and signs of leakage. Replace damaged flashing or seals and reseal penetrations to prevent water infiltration into the building envelope.
    4. Maintenance and Preventive Measures: Implement a proactive maintenance plan to prevent future hail damage and extend the lifespan of your commercial roof. This may include regular inspections, cleaning of drains and gutters, and installation of protective measures such as hail-resistant coatings or membranes.
    5. Professional Installation and Quality Materials: Ensure that repairs are performed by experienced professionals using high-quality roofing materials and industry-standard techniques. Investing in durable, hail-resistant roofing systems can provide long-term protection and peace of mind for your commercial property.

    Hail damage on commercial roofs can be a costly and disruptive issue for property owners and managers. By understanding the unique challenges posed by hailstorms, conducting thorough inspections, and investing in professional repairs, you can mitigate the risks and preserve the longevity of your commercial roof. At Quality Roofing, we’re committed to delivering superior commercial roofing repair services tailored to your specific needs.

  • Quality Roofing Inc Navigates Unique Challenges at Marathon County Courthouse Project

    Quality Roofing Inc Navigates Unique Challenges at Marathon County Courthouse Project

    marathon county courthouseQuality Roofing Inc is currently engaged in a roofing project at the Marathon County Courthouse, demonstrating their expertise in overcoming site-specific challenges. Project manager Lucas Kramer shared insights into the ongoing construction.

    The team is currently stationed at the Marathon County Courthouse, with the main challenge being navigating with limited site access due to the nature of the site.

    The roofing system selected for this project involves the installation of a grey TPO fully adhered system over a concrete deck. Notably, the team is using a crane for the project, introducing new challenges associated with wind conditions. With the crane extending hundreds of feet into the air, the team has implemented stringent safety precautions. If wind conditions become unfavorable, operations are halted, and the team switches gears to ensure the safety of both personnel and equipment.

    Kramer commended the team’s resilience in the face of challenges, including adverse weather conditions. Despite the difficulties posed by wind and other elements, the team remains focused on maintaining productivity while prioritizing safety.

    “We’re doing our best to navigate the unique challenges of the Marathon County Courthouse project. Our team is dedicated to overcoming obstacles and delivering a high-quality roofing solution,” said Kramer.

    Quality Roofing Inc continues to prioritize safety and productivity in all its projects. The team’s commitment to excellence and adaptability ensures that they not only meet but exceed client expectations.

    Quality Roofing Inc Successfully Completes Roofing Project for HealthFirst in Wausau, WI

    healthfirst networkQuality Roofing Inc is pleased to announce the successful completion of a roofing project for a new construction addition at HealthFirst in Wausau, Wisconsin. The project was managed by Lucas Kramer, who provided insights into the process.

    The roofing system chosen for this project involved the use of TPO Membrane laid over insulation. With a smaller crew of 7 individuals, the team efficiently tackled the job, completing the roof in just two days.

    One of the notable challenges faced during the construction was the persistent wind conditions in the area. Kramer highlighted the team’s commitment to safety, emphasizing that all necessary precautions were taken to secure the jobsite and protect against flying debris. Quality Roofing adheres to general safety rules, and the team is always tied off when working within a warning line set six feet from the edge. The focus remains on maintaining a tidy jobsite and securing materials during crane and forklift operations.

    Kramer shared that safety is a top priority for Quality Roofing, and the company conducts a weekly Toolbox Talk safety meeting every Monday. This regular meeting ensures that the team is well-informed and up-to-date on safety protocols. While wind was a significant challenge during this particular project, the team’s dedication to safety remained unwavering.
