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.

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.

We are proud of the work we do here at Just Leaks, so to kick off 2016 with a bang, we thought we would share photos that highlight the work we do during the rainy season.

This January, we received a call from a commercial property owner with a flat roof that had developed a leak. This is a photo of the leak we found on an exterior wall in the area of a side-wall scupper drain.

This is one of those repairs we are often called out on after several unsuccessful repair attempts have been made by others, or the owners. The roof often deteriorates at the drains due to stress and the drains need to be re-sealed. Here you see the effects of the deterioration at the mouth of the scupper.

What also often happens, and is often not noticed is that there was not enough of a drip edge to stop water from back-flowing at the outer wall. This backflow can go into the building if the leader head clogs, or if the drip edge is not extended far enough into the leader head. If not repaired properly, the leak will continue, even if the drain is sealed at the roof. In the photo below, you’ll see what a complete and reliable leak repair looks like.

These photos show how we removed the old mastic and sealants, rebuilt the roof around and through the scupper, and extended the drip edge. This is an example of how, by having the experience to know what to look for, and by being thorough in investigating all of our leaks, we have a very high success rate in completely stopping leaks.

We realize this article is a bit technical for people who are not roof enthusiasts like we are, but we wanted to clearly illustrate the steps we take when servicing roof leaks. Our years of experience with flat, industrial roofs help commercial property owners secure their buildings against water leaks that could damage the structure, furnishings, electronic equipment, or products located inside the building.

If you are a property owner or business owner that dislikes losing money on their investments and believes in preventive maintenance, you can rest easy knowing that Just Leaks will do a complete and reliable roof repair.
