It may be the tail end of winter in Phoenix AZ, but this is the perfect time to get your flat roof ready for the storm season. It’s important to keep your flat roof in top shape, especially while it’s dry enough to have any necessary maintenance done it. The roof is your first line of defense to protect people and property, so act now to take the necessary precautions before it’s too late.
Contact A Licensed Contractor To Inspect Your Flat Roof
It’s important to have your roof inspected by a professional so any issues can be readily fixed before the rain hits. Your roofing contractor will be looking for any irregularities like blisters, holes, cracks or soft areas. They will also be checking for issues around the vents and ensuring the drainage system is in good shape. Any debris like leaves and branches should be cleared from the roof and gutters at this time.
What Kind Of Damage Can Storms Do To Flat Roofing?
If your flat roof isn’t being regularly cleaned and maintained, then that lack of maintenance will be evident during the monsoon season in Arizona. The issues that should have been repaired may allow the excess water to leak through the roofing material. If the roof drains get clogged, this could create pooling on the roof. When water is allowed to pond on a flat roof, it could cause structural damage due to the weight of the water.
