A Brief Overview of Schrock Roof Inspections

With every roof inspection Schrock Commercial Roofing completes, we do our best to ensure there won’t be any problems in the future. Our roof inspections include in-depth evaluation of the following:

• Interior roof system: signs of rust, water stains, corrosion, structural damage
• Building envelope
• Rooftop: visual inspection of overall roof system condition, debris, standing water, vegetation, etc.
• Roof perimeter: counter flashings, base flashings, coping, joints, gutter, drains, etc.
• Roof field: inspection of roof membrane for general wear and tear, etc.
• Roof-based accessories and equipment
• And much more!

Our roofing technicians will record and document all findings, suggesting multiple options for action, keeping your budget in mind. If you hire Kentex Roofing, we will provide you with a full proposal, including cost estimates and project timelines.

Year-Round Roof Inspections

Industry standards recommend having your roof inspected at least twice a year. The best time to schedule an inspection is usually spring – recovering from winter – and fall – in preparation for winter. However, we at Kentex Roofing understand that commercial roof maintenance isn’t always top priority (although it should be)! That is why we offer roof inspections year-round, and we customize your inspection to your roof’s needs and the current season:

1) Spring Roof Inspections

Winter can wreak havoc on your commercial roof, as can the melting snow that results in the spring. During spring inspections, the professionals at Schrock pay special attention to:

• Leaky gutters
• Clogged downspouts or drains
• Accumulated debris
• Pooling water
• Cracked seams
• Rusted metal
• Mold and mildew
  

2) Summer Roof Inspections

Summer is a good time to look for the following problems that may adversely affect your roof:

• Excessive heat, causing roofing material to warp or bend
• Inadequate insulation
• Poor ventilation
• Mold
• Excessive weight on the rooftop due to tree branches or equipment
• Debris: sticks, dirt, leaves, deteriorating roofing material, etc.

3) Fall Roof Inspections

During the rainy fall season, Schrock will include the following checks during our routine roof inspections:

• Inadequate drainage
• Blocked gutters (usually due to fallen leaves)
• Winterization of roof

4) Winter Roof Inspections

During the winter in Montana, your commercial roof is especially at risk of being damaged. Heavy snow can weigh your roof down and the occasional warm weather day can cause significant melt and flooding. Even in the dead of winter, you can count on Schrock Roofing to keep your roof performing. We will help you keep your roof free of ice dams and properly insulated.

Rubber Roof Repairs & Maintenance

Rubber roofs are a popular choice for commercial buildings – they’re relatively inexpensive, easy to install and maintain, and long-lasting. Their life expectancy can vary anywhere from 20 to 50 years.

Like any roofing system, rubber roofs are prone to a set of common issues. Over the life of your rubber roof, you’ll need to do some regular maintenance:

• Tears, rips, punctures – Tears are one of the most common issues that afflict rubber roofs. Most rips and tears are simple repairs, but larger damages from falling branches or hail may need more extensive repairs, to fix the roof and repair damages to underlying materials, such as insulation
• Roof cleaning – Rubber roofs should be inspected every 6 months and have any dirt or debris removed, to maintain peak efficiency.
• Roof coatings and restoration – Coating your rubber roof is a great way to add years to its life and improve energy efficiency. A new coating can mitigate problems that result from your old rubber roof deteriorating or becoming brittle due to age and exposure.

Schrock Commercial Roofing provides general repairs, customizable maintenance plans, and rubber roof restoration, in addition to its many other services. Call us today at (406) 961-2990 to get started!

Montana’s Rubber Roof Restoration Specialist

If your rubber roof seems to be in constant need of repairs, you may want to stop with the patches and start to consider full-scale roof restoration. Schrock offers restorative roof coatings as a way to quickly and affordably seal your entire roof off against leaks and other deterioration.

Roof coatings are essentially a liquid-applied system that coats your roof, easily reaching into crevices and around protrusions to create a seamless, monolithic barrier across your entire roof. At Schrock Commercial Roofing, we use premium roof coatings from Conklin, a leading manufacture and pioneer in the cool roof coating field.

Here are just a few of the benefits you can expect from rubber roof restoration with Schrock:

• Improved durability – Highly resistant to water, dirt, debris, wind, hail, fire, and more
• Low maintenance
• Superior solar reflectance – Bounces back up to 85% of the sun’s rays, dropping rooftop temps by up to 80 degrees, and lowering utility bills by 30-50%
• Improved longevity – Can add years and decades to your roof’s life
• Affordable – Significantly less expensive than a roof tear off and replacement
• Sustainable – Can be re-coated multiple times every 10 years or so
• Strengthening – Reinforces building structure
• Flexible – Expands and contracts with fluctuating temperatures
• And much more!

Single-Ply Roofing 101

Single-ply roofing systems are composed of a single layer or roofing material, which is attached to the roof deck in one of three ways:

• Ballasting: The single-ply membrane is not anchored or adhered, but rather held down with some type of weight, usually gravel.
• Mechanical attachment: The membrane is attached with mechanical fasteners through both the insulation and decking material, typically at the seams.
• Full adherence: The single-ply membrane is attached to the top surface of the roof through adhesives, without penetrating the membrane.

The three main types of single-ply roofing include PVC, TPO, and EPDM (rubber).

Single-Ply Roofing Advantages

Whatever type of single-ply roofing you choose to install, you can be sure of receiving several benefits:

• Fast, Easy Installation – Because it’s only a single layer, single-ply is easy to transport and handle. It can be installed quickly, reducing labor costs.
• Improved Durability – Single-ply membranes are highly resistant to the deteriorating effects of wind, hail, rain, chemicals, and other elements.
• Easy Maintenance – Single-ply systems require little maintenance other than biannual inspections for small repairs and regular cleanings to keep the roof free of debris and dirt.
• Longevity – Single-ply systems last, on average, about 20 years.

High-Quality Single-Ply Roofs

The professionals at Schrock Commercial Roofing are experts when it comes to understanding single-ply roofing and finding the best solutions for your commercial or industrial roof. That is why we exclusively install single-ply systems from Conklin, a leading national manufacturer of two high-performing single-ply options:

1) Hy-Crown

Hy-Crown is a CSPE synthetic rubber made to withstand the harshest conditions. It is extremely resistant to wind, hail, chemicals, ozone, and oils (great for the food industry). It exhibits exceptional waterproofing and will save you money on utility bills with its superior energy efficiency.

2) Flexion

Flexion is reinforced PVC, designed with an embedded reinforcing, moisture-wicking fabric layer. Like Hy-Crown, it is also resistant to water, fire, chemicals, and other deteriorating elements. It is low maintenance and energy efficient.

Both of these single-ply systems from Conklin come with optional non-prorated warranties on all parts and labor for up to 20 years.

The words, “Your roof needs to be replaced,” can strike fear into any property manager’s or facility owner’s heart. Replacing the flat roof on your commercial building can be a long, expensive, messy project, and finding a company you can trust to do good, efficient work can seem impossible. If you are located in Helena, Montana, however, you are in luck – Schrock Commercial Roofing, Inc. is your local full-service commercial roofing company with more than 35 years of experience.

Replacing your flat roof is not a job that should be taken lightly – you need someone with professional experience, knowledge, expertise, and resources. Call Schrock Commercial Roofing today at (406) 961-2990. We will set up an initial, on-site consultation to confirm whether or not your roof needs replacing and walk you through your options.

Flat Roof Replacement Options

There are a few common signs that may indicate it’s time to replace your flat roof completely:

• Leaks have become a common occurrence, even with regular maintenance and repairs.
• More than 25% of your roof has been restored, replaced, or repaired, but continues to operate inefficiently.
• Your roof is showing significant wear and tear and is reaching the end of its warrantied life.

A thorough inspection by one of Schrock Commercial Roofing’s certified technicians can help you determine if your roof does, indeed, need to be replaced. We will never suggest a roof replacement while repairs or restoration are still a viable option. If, however, it is time to replace, there are two options to choose from:

1) Re-cover

This involves placing a new covering over the existing roof system. If your roof is structurally strong and able to hold the additional weight, and if the current roofing system is in relative good condition, re-covering is a good option. It is generally cheaper, too, requiring less labor and materials than the next option.

2) Tear off and replace

This option involves tearing off the current roof completely, including underlying layers such as insulation, and replacing it with a new roof system. If your current roof is significantly damaged, we at Schrock Commercial Roofing recommend starting over by tearing it off and replacing it completely.

The experts at Schrock Commercial Roofing are trained and experienced in re-covering and replacing commercial flat roofs. If you think your flat roof may need to be replaced, please call us at (406) 961-2990 for a professional evaluation and cost estimate.

Montana’s Flat Roof Restoration Specialists

In some cases, small, general repairs to your roof may not be enough, but a full-on replacement isn’t necessary either. In those scenarios, we at Schrock Commercial Roofing often suggest restoring your flat roof. Our flat roof restoration service involves applying a high-quality elastomeric roof coating across the entirety of your existing roof, sealing it against leaks and adding years and even decades to its service life.

Schrock Commercial Roofing uses only the best products available, and when it comes to flat roof restoration, that means premium roof coatings from Conklin Roof Systems. Conklin’s superior coatings are specifically designed to solve the most common issues that afflict flat roofs:

• Weak, failing seams
• Deterioration due to membrane expansion and contraction as temperatures rise and fall
• Pooling water due to inadequate drainage or low spots
• Compromised, missing, or loose fasteners
• General wear and tear incident to age

A single application of any of Conklin’s roof coatings can help you see immediate benefits, including:

• 30-50% savings in utility costs
• Rooftop temperature drop of up to 80 degrees
• Up to 85% reflectivity of the sun’s rays
• Seamless waterproof barrier
• ENERGY STAR rating (may qualify you for rebates)
• Improved resistance to hail, wind, water, and more
• Ability to flex, expand, and contract with weather, temperature, and climate changes

And did we mention that all Conklin restoration systems come with optional, non-prorated warranties of up to 20 years on 100% of materials and labor? That’s a deal that can’t be beat!
