A commercial roof replacement involves completely removing the existing roof system and installing a new one, while a roof recover/layover involves installing a new roof system over the existing one without removing it.
Several factors come into play when deciding between a roof replacement and a roof recover/layover. These include the condition of the existing roof, its age, the extent of damage, and local building codes. Our roofing experts can assess your roof and provide you with a professional recommendation.
Roof recovers/layovers are possible on certain types of commercial roofs, such as single-ply or modified bitumen systems. However, not all roofs are suitable for this method, and it depends on factors like the condition and structural integrity of the existing roof. Our team can evaluate your specific roof to determine if a recover/layover is feasible.
A commercial roof replacement offers several advantages, including improved energy efficiency, enhanced durability, increased lifespan, and the opportunity to incorporate modern roofing materials and technologies. It also allows for a thorough inspection of the roof deck and underlying structure, ensuring any underlying issues are addressed.
Roof recovers/layovers can provide cost savings and shorter installation times compared to full replacements. They can be a viable option if the existing roof is in relatively good condition and can provide an additional layer of protection. However, it's essential to consider the long-term implications and consult with our professionals to determine the best course of action for your specific roof.
At Economy Roofing, we offer comprehensive warranty options for both commercial roof replacements and roof recovers/layovers. The specific warranty coverage will depend on the type of roofing system and materials used but typically they range from 10-20 years. Our team will provide detailed information about the warranty terms and conditions associated with your specific project.
The timeline for completing a commercial roof replacement or roof recover/layover can vary depending on several factors, including the size and complexity of the project, weather conditions, and material availability. Our experienced roofing team will provide you with an estimated timeline during the initial consultation. We strive to complete projects efficiently while ensuring the highest quality workmanship.
