A Roof History You Can Use
Dated photos from every visit show how the roof has changed, which repairs were made, and what is coming due. That record helps with budgets, tenant questions, and any future sale of the building.


As a Hershey commercial roof repair contractor, we inspect roofs twice a year, fix small problems early, and keep a photo record so changes are easy to see.
Hershey commercial roof repair is easier when there is a history to compare against. Each inspection adds dated photos of the seams, drains, flashing, and fasteners to your roof's file.
On the next visit, those photos show what has changed, so worn flashing and loose screws get fixed before water gets in.

Twice a year, each zone gets the same check and the same photos for comparison.
Edge metal and coping get photographed from the same spots every visit, so a joint that has opened since spring stands out right away.
Seam probing along the same runs each time shows which laps are starting to lift, and those get welded or taped while the gap is small.
Leaves and grit build up in drains and gutters between visits. Clearing them in spring and fall keeps water moving before summer storms and winter ice.
Sealant at curbs and boots cracks a little more each season. Comparing photos shows when a joint is close to failing, and it gets resealed on that visit.
Backed-out screws on metal sections and soft spots on flat sections both get logged. Moisture readings in the same places each year show whether wet areas are growing.
Small, regular repairs cost less than large, sudden ones, and a photo history shows where the money went.

Resealing a curb corner or one open lap costs far less than drying out insulation after that joint finally lets go.
Inspections after hail and high wind compare against the last photos, which makes new damage on the roof easy to spot.
Twice-yearly drain and gutter clearing keeps the roof shedding water through spring storms and winter melt.
Maintenance visits can include any of these repairs.

Low-slope roofs get seams probed, drains cleared, and base flashing resealed on each visit, with photos of every spot repaired.
Flat roof repair
Metal roofs get a fastener and lap check along every run, and loose screws and dried sealant get replaced as they show up.
Metal roof repair
If a leak shows up between visits, the photo history narrows down which joint changed, which shortens the trace.
Roof leak repair
Fans, vents, and skylights on larger buildings get checked for grease, heat, and sealant wear each season.
Industrial roof repairIf nobody has been on the roof since last year, small problems are likely waiting. Call and we will set up a spring or fall inspection.
Each maintenance visit follows the same four steps, so the records line up.
Edges, seams, drains, curbs, and fasteners get photographed from the same spots as last time, so the two sets of pictures line up.
New photos get compared with the last set, and any joint that changed gets probed and checked with a moisture meter.
Open laps, cracked sealant, loose screws, and clogged drains get repaired on the spot, before any of them turns into a leak.
Your file gets the new photos, a note on each repair, and a list of anything to watch at the next visit.

Answers about inspections, records, and keeping small problems small.
Maintenance
Inspections twice a year do the most. Clearing drains and gutters, resealing worn flashing, and replacing loose fasteners catch small problems before water gets in.
Checks after hail and high wind find hidden damage, and a photo record of each visit makes changes easy to spot.
Coverage
Yes. We repair and inspect commercial roofs in Hershey on a regular schedule as well as after storms.
Call to set up a spring or fall visit, or both, and we will start the photo record on the first inspection.
Scope
Most visits include seam and flashing checks, drain and gutter clearing, fastener replacement on metal sections, and resealing at curbs and boots.
Larger repairs found on the visit get priced separately so you can approve them before any work starts. Each one goes into the photo record with its location on the roof.
Cost
Fixing small problems on scheduled visits is the main way. A resealed boot or one welded lap costs a fraction of replacing wet insulation later.
The photo record also helps you plan larger repairs into the budget instead of paying for them as emergencies.
Records
Photos give the next inspection something to compare against, so a joint that opened or a drain that clogged stands out.
They also help with insurance questions after a storm and with any future sale or lease of the building.
Wind
Edges and coping come first, since wind lifts membrane at the perimeter and loosens edge metal. Then we check seams, curbs, and anything on the roof that could have moved.
The new photos get compared with the last set so fresh damage is easy to separate from older wear.
Set up a spring or fall inspection. We will photograph the roof, fix the small problems, and start your roof file.
