The Benefits of Professional Roofing Replacement Compared to DIY Roofing –

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.
