4 Considerations When Buying a New Commercial Roof

Larry Walty II • January 1, 2021

Replacing an old commercial roof can be a costly endeavor. But if you make the right decision, your new roofing system may pay for itself over the years. 

To get the most value out of your commercial roof replacement project, consider the following:

1. Climate

Trusted  commercial roofing contractors  will tell you that choosing a roof type that doesn’t make sense for your local climate is a recipe for disaster. There’s no single design that can withstand all of the elements, but some do a good job at enduring certain forces of nature.

Moreover, let seasonal weather extremes guide you when comparing products. For sure, experienced local roofers don’t use products that make no sense in the area. But do you research to understand strengths and weaknesses of each material.

2. Budget

Choosing a replacement over a  roof repair  doesn’t mean you should splurge. Quality products are available at different price points. So, take your time to explore all of your options.

Also, avoid the mistake of hiring the lowest bidder for the sake of having more funds to spend on materials. Working with a low-cost but incompetent contractor would be a waste of money and a major stressor.

3. Product Life Span

Want to get the most mileage out of your new roof? Choose one with a reputation for longevity. It may cost you a bit more initially, but not having to worry about financing a full replacement project will save you money over the long term.

4. Maintenance

Buying a cheap product with frequent  commercial roof repair  needs isn’t a bargain. All roofing systems need regular inspection, but not all get damaged easily.

Learn about the track record of each of your prospective products. Historical data can tell you which ones are built to last and which ones need care too often.

Buying a new roof is a major decision, so entrust your project to a team with over 30 years of experience in the business. Call (316) 733-2843 to  schedule an appointment with us  in Wichita, KS, and let’s talk about your roofing needs!
