Why Planned Preventative Maintenance is a good investment for a roof

18 Jan Why Planned Preventative Maintenance is a good investment for a roof

Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) is an important consideration for all commercial property owners with regard to roofing.

A building’s roof is one of its biggest assets, protecting inventory and the people inside from the outside. It therefore needs to be looked after and maintained, and Planned Preventative Maintenance is the best way to do that.

Here’s four reasons why Planned Preventative Maintenance is a good investment for a roof:

1. It will save you money

Emergency roof repairs are the most costly type of repair. They are carried out at short notice and roofers charge a lot for them as a result. By planning maintenance, all issues with a roof will be spotted early and repaired there and then. This reduces the risk of a roof failing considerably, and you will only need to pay for small repairs rather than large repairs.

2. Minimal disruption to your business

While business goes on as usual inside your premises, your roofer will be inspecting your roof and repairing it without causing disruption to your workers or customers. Our planned roofing services, for example, are designed around your business to minimise disruption. So if you are having an event during the day, we’ll visit later in the evening on your instruction.

3. Access to other skilled services

Our roofers aren’t just experts at their respective trade; they are multi-skilled and can carry out repairs to building pointing, gutters and pathways and much more. By hiring a roofing company for planned maintenance, you will be able to take advantage of the other services that they provide, and often at a highly competitive price too given your strong relationship.

4. Peace of mind in the long-term

Once you have organised Planned Preventative Maintenance for your roof, you simply don’t have to worry about this aspect of your building anymore. Everything from repair work to cleaning will be taken care of for you and depending on your needs, you will be presented with reports to satisfy your health and safety and insurance obligations as well.

What does Planned Preventative Maintenance include?

Planned Preventative Maintenance includes visual inspections and water drainage inspections, and if any repair work is carried out, the cleaning up of debris and full written reports along with photographic evidence should it be requested.
