Commercial Roof Replacement

At Trudel & Sons Roofing Ltd., we specialize in commercial roof replacement throughout the Greater Toronto Area.

Signs Your Commercial Roof Requires Replacement

While it is essential to replace outdated roofs, signs of damage might not be immediately visible. While roofers can provide repairs for minor issues, reroofing is the necessary option in many cases. Some common indications of the need for a roof replacement are:

• Age: A roof's age is the best indicator of roof replacement. If your commercial roof is older than 20 years and you have to call for repairs frequently, it is best to replace it. Replacing your aged roof will save you money on repairs in the long run.
  
  
• High-energy costs: Old roofs allow air leakage, putting added stress on your heating and cooling systems. If you have not made any changes to your building’s insulation, but are seeing an usual rise in energy costs, your old roof might be the culprit.
  
  
• Water damage: Commercial roofs are slightly more susceptible to water damage because they're usually a flat roofing system, allowing water to pool on top. Depending on the extent of the water damage, a roof replacement might be your only option.
  
  
• Damage to membrane: Damage to your roof's membrane occurs when poor weather conditions cause uplifting. If you let uplifting go unchecked, water can enter your building and compromise its structural integrity.
