How often should I have my metal roof inspected?
We recommend professional inspections of metal roofs at least once every 1-2 years, depending on your local climate conditions and the age of your roof. Additionally, inspections should be performed after major weather events such as severe storms, high winds, or hail. Newer roofs (0-10 years) may only need inspection every two years, while older roofs (10+ years) benefit from annual inspections to catch age-related issues early.
What maintenance can I do myself vs. hiring professionals?
Homeowners can safely perform basic maintenance such as keeping the roof clear of debris, trimming overhanging branches, and visually inspecting from the ground for obvious issues. However, professional maintenance includes specialized assessments, proper fastener torque checking, seam evaluation, and safe access to all roof areas. Professional technicians also have the training to identify early warning signs that might be missed by untrained observers. For safety reasons, we recommend leaving any work that requires walking on the roof to trained professionals.
What does a maintenance program cost?
Our maintenance programs are customized based on your specific roof size, complexity, age, and local conditions. Annual maintenance programs typically range from $250-$750 per year for residential properties and $500-$2,500+ for commercial buildings, depending on size and complexity. These programs include scheduled inspections, preventative maintenance, documentation, and often discounted repair rates. The investment in preventative maintenance typically saves 4-5 times the cost in avoided repairs and extended roof life.
Is roof maintenance required to maintain my warranty?
Many metal roofing warranties require regular maintenance and documentation of that maintenance to remain valid. While requirements vary by manufacturer, most warranties include language requiring "proper maintenance" of the roofing system. Our maintenance programs include detailed documentation that satisfies warranty requirements from major manufacturers like GAF and others. We can review your specific warranty documents and ensure our maintenance program meets all requirements.
