Preventing Sun Damage to Your Commercial Roof

Summer is officially here, and as much as we love the sun, we have to be mindful of sun damage. Those UV rays are not just harmful to our skin, but they can also cause severe damage to your commercial or industrial roof. We can help you combat the sun’s dangerous side effects.

UV light, IR radiation, and thermal expansion can wreak havoc on your commercial roof, and often this damage goes unnoticed until the rainy season. During the summer, the chances of your roofing system deteriorating are heightened, and roof deterioration can lead to leaks and other problems.

A cool roofing system is an excellent and effective way to combat the sun. This type of roof coating will draw the sun’s heat away from your building, along with lowering its overall surface temperature. This coating is easily applied to your existing roof, and will provide ample protection against both water and the sun. You can think of it as sunscreen for your roofing system.

We also recommend routine roofing inspections. A thorough roof inspection will identify any sun damage and help curb problems before they become bigger and more expensive issues. The team at Just Leaks can carefully and expertly inspect your commercial or industrial roof for any signs of current or impending damage.

Just Leaks provides tailored, experienced, and reliable roof service to commercial and industrial companies throughout San Jose and the surrounding communities. To schedule an appointment for a free estimate, call Just Leaks at (408) 249-4646.

New Year’s Resolutions for Your Roofing System

Did you know that 45% of Americans make New Year Resolutions, and the top four categories are self-improvement, weight/health, money/job and personal relationships? At Just Leaks in San Jose, we don’t want you to forget about your commercial or industrial roofing system. We have compiled 3 resolutions you can easily complete, especially when you have us on your side.

 

  1. Inspect: Annual roofing inspections and reports are incredibly important in protecting one of our biggest investments. A roof inspection on your commercial roof can save you time and money in the long run, and in California, we see many problems arising on neglected flat roofs. Many of this issues could have been prevented with a simple inspection and report.
  2. Clean: Many commercial roofing systems are afflicted with tons of debris, such as leaves and foliage. To ensure your roofing system doesn’t start to degrade prematurely, it is important to have your roofing system cleaned on a routine basis by professionals.
  3. Maintain: It’s common for business owners to think about their commercial roof as often as they do of their windshield wipers, and usually, it’s only in the rainy season. Our team can tailor a roof maintenance program to your operation and roofing system. This way, we ward off preventable, and typically, expensive problems.

 

With Just Leaks at your service, we think accomplishing these three roofing resolutions will be seamless. Not only will you feel empowered after knocking resolutions off your list, but your commercial or industrial roofing system will be ready to withstand virtually anything that comes its way. To schedule an appointment, call Just Leaks at (408) 249-4646.

Five Interesting Facts About The Costs of Roof Repair

Your commercial roof requires a skilled team to service, repair, and replace it. If your roof develops leaks or loses its structural integrity, you risk having damaged products and electronics, plus injured customers and employees.

When people think of roof repair for their commercial building, they often get anxious. Roof repair is not something the average building owner and property manager deals with every day, so their anxiety is caused by worry. Worry about what the roof repair will cost and how long the roof repair will take.

At Just Leaks, we have been repairing commercial roofs since the 1990s. Thanks to our vast experience with roof repair, we have found five interesting facts that will should help ease your concerns about roof repair costs.

Maintenance of your roof saves you insurance money. When you insure your commercial building, you can save money on your premiums if you can show a record of careful roof inspections. When you can prove that you’ve been maintaining your commercial roof by a professional team of experts, your rates will not likely climb when you file a roof damage claim.

Maintenance of your roof extends the lifespan of your roof. A properly installed, new, commercial roof can last 20 years or longer with regular maintenance. Maintenance includes cleaning off debris, annual inspections, and repairing smaller problems. Plan your annual budget to include regular roof maintenance.

When a leak or roof damage occurs, call Just Leaks first; then call your insurance agent. Insurance claims processing for commercial roofing repair is commonplace for the roofer, but you may be uncertain how to proceed. The Just Leaks team will help you by providing the key details for your claim and make the process as smooth as possible.

Save for a rainy day. If a leak develops in your commercial roof, Just Leaks can help you fix it right away. However, we encourage our property management and commercial building owner clients to have us do annual roof inspections. Annual inspections and routine repair will cost less than a complete tear-off and replacement. Build into your annual budget the small costs of annual inspections and anticipated minimal repair work.

Commercial roofs are not made of a single piece. Commercial roofs are made up of a series of membranes, which is a coordinated system, to prevent leaks and protect your business. A new commercial roof includes flashing, mechanical and chemical fastening, insulation, drainage and more.

We have only touched on the costs of commercial roofing and repair. If your commercial roof needs to be replaced, call on Just Leaks in San Jose for a comprehensive roof inspection. Only then can we fully determine your roof repair options and give you a legitimate estimate. Call Just Leaks today at 408-249-4646; available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.

Five Ways To Lower The Energy Bill for Your Commercial Building

Many owners and tenants of commercial buildings are interested in finding ways to lower their energy bills. Here are five easy ways to reduce the energy consumption in your industrial building.

  1. Install automatic shut-off light switches. Even if you are using low-voltage lighting, it’s smart to install automatic shut-off light switches that power down a room when it’s not occupied. Encourage all building tenants to turn off the lights before they leave work.
  2. Use Energy Star appliances and other energy-saving equipment. Not only do you save by lowering your energy costs with Energy Star appliances, but some equipment can earn you rebates, too. Check into all the energy-saving equipment available on the market for your commercial building and tenants’ industry requirements. The equipment you choose could make a big difference in your power bills.
  3. Install water-saving devices. Lower your building’s water consumption by utilizing water saving devices on all sink fixtures. Replace older toilets with newer low-flow tanks. Encourage all building tenants to reduce water usage when possible.
  4. Reduce air conditioning usage at night. If your commercial building is not required to keep electrical equipment and perishable goods at a lower temperature, consider turning off the A/C at night. The morning air should be cool enough to keep the inside comfortable when the air conditioning is turned on for the day.
  5. Install or maintain a cool roof coating. Just Leaks helps many commercial property owners and tenants save big time on energy costs by installing cool roofs. Coated with AcryPly Polyester Membrane Systems or Spray Polyurethane Foam Systems, flat industrial roofs stay significantly cooler. Not only will a cool roof lower your energy bills, but it also benefits the environment.

For more information about cool roofs and how they can help lower the energy costs on your commercial properties, contact Just Leaks for a consultation. Our phone number is 408-249-4646, and we will be happy to assist you.
