A Letter From Bryan Amos
As the owner of over 800 apartment units in various complexes over the years, I am keenly aware of the cost of repairing and replacing roofs and, more importantly, the cost of failing to catch roofing problems before they escalate.
At OMNI, our roofing solutions and recommendations will always be the option that makes the most sense for your roof. This means no unsupported warranty claims or unnecessary expenses due to improper scope. And through our annual inspection and maintenance services, we work to prevent premature roof replacements.
Our roofing solutions maximize your ROI while ensuring the safety and comfort of your structure’s occupants.
Often, a roof can be repaired. But when it’s time for a roof replacement, putting off this investment to save money can result in higher expenses, extensive damage to the property, and disruptions to business operations. A commercial roof replacement is indeed an investment. However, the cost of doing nothing or repeatedly patching a roof with band-aid repairs can be far more expensive over time than replacing the roof in the first place.
Our top priority is to provide you with the best solution to fit your budget. Whether you need roof repair, complete roof replacement, or routine Inspections and maintenance, we are here to protect your roof, your building, and your investment.
Sincerely,
Bryan Amos,
Owner, OMNI Roofing
Weather Protection: Your roof shields your property from harsh weather conditions such as rain, snow, wind, and sunlight. It prevents
water from leaking into the building, which leads to water damage, mold growth, and structural deterioration.
Structural Support: The roof provides weather protection and contributes to the structural integrity of the building. A structurally sound
roof helps maintain the overall stability and safety of the property.
Energy Efficiency: A properly insulated and maintained roof helps regulate indoor temperatures, reducing the need for excessive heating
or cooling. By minimizing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, the roof promotes energy efficiency and lowers utility costs for
homeowners and businesses.
Asset Preservation: Your property is an important investment, and the roof’s condition directly impacts its value and longevity. Regular
roof maintenance preserves the building’s aesthetic appeal and functional performance, enhancing its marketability and resale value over
time.
That being said, several key factors should be considered when it comes to the integrity of your roof. These include:
Age of the Roof: Age is a critical factor. If a roof is approaching the end of its expected lifespan or has exceeded it, replacement is often the best solution.
Once your roof reaches a certain age, it begins to fail. It’s more susceptible to water infiltration. The structural elements can deteriorate. You lose energy efficiency due to compromised seals and inadequate insulation. Your property value plummets because your deteriorating roof detracts from the overall appeal of your building and can result in the loss of tenants.
And, of course, you have insurance and regulatory concerns. An older roof that fails to comply with building codes or safety standards may result in violations that lead to citations, fines, and insurance denials.
Extent of Damage: How badly damaged is your roof? If there are minor isolated leaks or punctures, then a repair may be all you need. If, on the other hand, the damage is extensive with widespread leaks, underlayment deterioration, or structural issues, your best bet is likely a total replacement.
Cost consideration: Although it may seem like a repair saves money compared to a replacement, this is not always the case. Repairs may offer short-term savings, but if repairs become too frequent on an aging roof, these expenses add up quickly, and the result remains the same. Eventually, an old roof MUST be replaced.
Energy Efficiency: Is your roof’s insulation or reflective properties compromised? If so, investing in a new, energy-efficient roofing system can reduce your heating and cooling costs saving you money over time.
Warranty Coverage: When considering repairing your commercial roof, carefully review your manufacturer and workmanship warranty to ensure that repair work won’t cause them to be voided.
Building Codes and Regulations: Sometimes extensive repairs are not an option. To comply with updated building codes and regulations, a complete replacement may be the only option.
Failing to replace a damaged or deteriorated roof leads to:
Even minor problems with the underlayment, flashing, and seals can cause interior nightmares, including:
Regular roof maintenance, repair, and, when needed, replacement is the best way to ensure your commercial property continues to appreciate and generate dependable income.
The best way to know if your roof can be repaired or should be replaced is to consult with a commercial roofing expert. At OMNI Roofing, we will send someone to your location for a no-obligation assessment. You’ll receive detailed recommendations and insight into the best course of action.
