12 Reasons to have a NIS Roof Survey

Investing in one of our comprehensive Roof survey can pay dividends. Here are 12 reasons why:

Weather Resistance: With the extremes of weather that we experience in this country, regular maintenance ensures the roof can withstand these elements, preventing leaks and damage.

Prolongs Roof Lifespan: Regular inspections and maintenance can significantly extend the life of a commercial roof by identifying and addressing minor issues before they develop into major problems.

Prevents Costly Repairs and Business Interruptions: Addressing minor issues through regular maintenance prevents them from becoming significant problems that could lead to expensive repairs and business interruptions.

Protects Assets and Inventory: A well-maintained roof protects these assets from water damage and other weather-related issues.

Ensures Safety and Compliance: UK health and safety regulations require buildings to be maintained to a safe standard.

Improves Energy Efficiency: Regular maintenance helps maintain the roof’s insulation properties, leading to better energy efficiency.

Prevents Health Hazards: Roof leaks can lead to dampness and mould, which are health hazards. Regular maintenance helps prevent these issues, ensuring a healthy environment for employees and visitors.

Maintains Aesthetic Appeal and Reputation: The appearance of commercial buildings is important for business reputation. A well-maintained roof contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal, reflecting positively on the business.

Ensures Warranty Compliance: Many commercial roofing materials and systems come with warranties that require regular maintenance to remain valid. Compliance with these maintenance requirements protects the investment in the roofing system.

Adapts to Environmental Standards: The UK has stringent environmental regulations. Regular maintenance ensures that roofing materials and systems meet these standards, which can include proper disposal and recycling of roofing materials.

Prepares for Insurance Requirements: Insurance companies may require evidence of regular maintenance for commercial properties. Keeping up with roof maintenance can ensure coverage and possibly lower insurance premiums.

Avoids Structural Damage: Regular maintenance checks for structural integrity, ensuring the roof can handle these stresses without risk of collapse or severe damage.
