Wear & Tear
No roof lasts forever, and like residential roofs, commercial roof systems will deteriorate over time. With the large variety of commercial roofing systems available, it is important to realize that the expected lifespan for each of these various systems varies considerably among products, regions, and buildings. Besides the product itself, it is important to consider additional factors that can have an impact on the life expectancy of a given commercial roof: hail and wind exposure, chemical attack, insulation, etc.
Understanding how various types of weather and factors that control the rate and extent of weathering is critical to properly analyze roofs for all types of damage. Normal wear and tear and other local environmental damages can easily be misdiagnosed by those who are not familiar with the effects of nature’s unrelenting fury on these materials or with how these materials perform in specific environments.
Donan Engineering’s team of professional engineers has the knowledge and experience to successfully study wear and tear on all types of commercial roof systems. Our experts are trained to study all types of commercial roofs for proper installation, material defect, storm damage, wear and tear, or other causes of potential loss.
