The team at Just Leaks would like to wish everyone a safe and happy New Year!

Now is the perfect time to start thinking of your resolutions for 2021. Solar panel installation may be the right resolution for you and your business, as there are many benefits to installing solar panels on your commercial or industrial roofing system. Here are some benefits of solar energy for commercial buildings:

1. Solar power is an excellent return on investment. We like to think of solar panel installation as an investment, not an expense.
2. Solar panel installation will reduce your operating costs. We strongly believe the cost of installing solar panels will more than pay for itself over the lifespan of your solar panel system.
3. You can easily predict your future energy bills. A commercial solar panel system will dramatically reduce your energy costs, and you will know exactly what to expect each month.
4. You are eligible for tax credit and bonus depreciation when installing solar panels on your commercial or industrial roofing system, especially since we live in California.
5. You will now be committed to green and clean energy. Not only is this good for the environment, but you will be sharing a positive message with your customers.
6. Most importantly, commercial solar panels require little to no maintenance and are built to withstand rain, hail, snow, and any other elements you can think of.

If you are interested in learning about installing a solar energy system on your commercial or industrial building or would like to hear more about the financial benefits of this system, call Just Leaks at (408) 249-4646.

Winter is here, which means we might be in store for some rainy days. The team at Just Leaks wants you and your commercial roofing system to be ready for whatever Mother Nature has in store for us. To get your roofing system ready, roof leak repair is essential, especially before we are in the midst of the stormy season.

It is almost 2021, and we couldn’t be more excited to see what 2021 holds for us. Before the New Year is here, the team at Just Leaks encourages you to contact our team for annual maintenance. Your industrial roofing system might need a little TLC before the year is over.

• What does annual roofing maintenance look like, and why is it important?
  Longer Life – The deterioration of key components, such as drains and waterways, can cause roof system failure even though the majority of the roof membrane is still serviceable. By keeping the roof clean and maintained you allow the entire system to realize full maturity.
• Fewer Leaks – Most roof membrane defects develop after the heat of the summer. These defects are quite apparent to our technicians well before the rainy season hits. Inspecting, repairing, and maintaining the roof minimizes roof leaks and maximizes the performance of the overall roof system.
• Less Cost – it is far less expensive to repair any roof deck during a scheduled, Fairweather maintenance session as opposed to making repairs during an emergency call in the rain. By making repairs to defects before they leak, you also avoid the damage the infiltrating water can cause as well as disruption to your business activities. Regular maintenance means a longer service life which translates to less cost for that system on an annual basis. This community substantial savings for your facility’s budget.

To schedule an appointment for annual roofing maintenance, call Just Leaks at (408) 249-4646. Our team looks forward to making sure your commercial or industrial roofing system is ready for the New Year.

Commercial and industrial roofing systems are not designed to hold water. Even flat roofs are designed with a slope to ensure positive drainage. When your commercial or industrial roofing system has accumulated ponding water, it is most likely an indication your roofing system has a drainage problem.

Ponding water on your commercial or industrial roofing system can lead to:

• Increased ultraviolet exposure, as the ponding water can essentially act as a magnifying glass on your roofing system.
• Premature deterioration of the roof membrane, flashings, and coatings.
• Damage any adhesives that might be used to do the field-fabricated single-ply laps, which might negatively impact the entire roofing system.
• A build-up of insects, mold, or vegetation.
• A collection of dirt could lead to mud cracking under the roofing system and plants or mold growth.
• Overall structural damage to your roofing system, which in worst cases, could result in a roof collapse.

All these end-results of ponding water sound petrifying, but it doesn’t have to be with the team at Just Leaks. Roof maintenance is critical in ensuring your commercial or industrial roofing system will adequately drain water. Maintaining positive drainage is incredibly essential, especially since winter is just around the corner. We encourage you to contact Just Leaks, and we will make sure your roofing system is ready for whatever Mother Nature has in store. If your commercial or industrial roofing system needs maintenance, the Just Leaks team would be happy to help. To schedule an appointment for a free roof estimate, call Just Leaks at (408) 249-4646.

Both DIY roof replacement and professional roofing replacement have advantages, but which ones have more benefits for your business? Our team at Just Leaks will break it down for you, so you can understand why professional roofing replacement is the more logical, safer, and overall better option. 

It is always tempting to go the DIY route, having your building maintenance team handle it for you. It is still easy to think you would end up saving money in the long-run. A new commercial or industrial roof installed by professionals is not an inexpensive procedure. Still, there is a clear difference in price between doing it yourself and hiring a professional team that has many manhours of experience. If you go down the DIY road, you might find yourself spending more money than you budgeted, or perhaps needing more expensive repairs in the future. Sometimes, the benefit of saving money by doing it yourself goes out the window. 

If you plan on completing the project with your own maintenance team, you could put your business at risk. Here are five reasons how doing the roof replacement yourself could create problems for your business:

1. Increased Workers Comp rates and risk of injury.
2. Your team may miss out on essential steps vital to ensuring the reliability of your roof.
3. Your team’s unfamiliarity with commercial roofing processes could jeopardize your entire roofing system and expose your business to many safety risks. 
4. If a problem develops during the roofing replacement, are you certain your insurance will cover it?
5. If equipment, people, or your products are damaged while the commercial roof is being replaced, do you carry enough insurance or cash flow to cover those damages?

When it comes to your commercial or industrial roofing system’s safety and reliability, it is always better to be safe than sorry. The team at Just Leaks can go over your options with you, ensuring you are involved in the process each step of the way.

If you think your roofing system needs a replacement, the team at Just Leaks would be happy to help. To schedule an appointment for a free roof estimate, call Just Leaks at (408) 249-4646. 

We all know how hot it can get during the summertime in the Bay area. Imagine how dreadful it would be if we couldn’t escape the heat to our cool, A/C blasting home. Think of how your commercial or industrial roofing system feels. They take the brunt of the sun’s rays, which is why we have to make sure we give our roofing systems a little extra TLC during the summertime.

By staying on top of your roofing maintenance, you can avoid potentially costly and dangerous repairs. This way, our team can carefully inspect your roofing system for any signs of wear and tear. We can develop a plan designed to ensure your roofing system’s longevity and quality that extends long past the end of summer.

When our roofing experts arrive at your commercial or industrial roofing system, we will examine the condition of your roofing system. We will carefully and thoroughly perform the following services:

• We walk around your entire commercial or industrial roofing system, and we look for any pesky debris that could affect the condition of your roofing systems, such as mold, mildew, or grime.
• We will check your roofing system’s metal strips, also known as flashing, around the vents and gutters.
• If your roofing system has eaves or gutters, we will look there too.
  We will make sure no pesky pests are living on the roof.
• If your roofing system is under any hanging tree limbs, we will decide whether or not to remove them.

These services are just examples of what our roofing technicians will perform during a visit to your roofing system. A qualified roofing team should only examine your roofing system as your roofing system is vital to your business’s overall success and operation. The team at Just Leaks meets all those criteria and more.

Solar technology is the fastest-growing energy in the nation. It is a clean, safe, and renewable source of energy. Commercial rooftop solar projects offer exceptional financial returns, but they are great for the environment! Regardless of what type of business you have, from an office building to a factory, commercial solar works for virtually all types of companies.

Installing a solar system on your commercial building’s roofing system can significantly reduce your overall operating costs and your electricity bill. With solar panels, you will be able to produce power and then sell it back to your electrical provider. As a California business, you also have additional advantages, including tax benefits. You are likely to see a high return on investment.

Most of the Bay Area residents are environmentally friendly, and they appreciate the fact that the business is choosing to take a stand against global warming. Solar-powered industrial and commercial roofing systems are an effective way to minimize your carbon footprint. Solar power systems convert the sun’s rays into electricity, which in turn, helps combat greenhouse gas emissions and reduces our overall dependence on fossil fuel.

The team at Just Leaks can help you decide on a solar-powered industrial and commercial roofing system that is right for you and your operation. We will perform a full analysis of your energy bill and available solar energy on your roof. In most cases, we can offset almost all of your energy needs, and you will save a bit of money each year. It will take as little as three years to pay back the installation of a solar system.
