Blow-offs and Roof Penetrations

A leaking roof or a roof that paves the way to the sun rays due to blow-offs or roof penetrations is a problem by itself. This will indirectly affect productivity among your workers and even destroy property in your commercial space.

Considering a roof is an expensive investment that protects your building and people from elements, you probably wouldn't want to destroy it. Ironically, you may be doing more harm to your roof by avoiding roof penetrations and blow-offs. With a good roofer from JeffCo & Beyond, you can sort this matter and manage to save your roof from more damage.

Roof penetration is a hole that is made through your roof to install any sort of equipment. Some of the familiar sources of root penetrations are chimneys, plumbing or air vents, satellite installations, and so on. Heavy winds and storms commonly cause blow-offs. 

Why Avoiding Blow-Offs And Roof Penetrations Can Harm Your Roof

Anything you install without the help of a good roofer can be more prone and less secure to tipping over and causing damage to your roof than it would have if you opted for roof penetration.

Avoiding roof penetrations and choosing other DIY methods can interfere with the roof's drainage system causing block drains, hence the formation of stagnant water. The heavy ballasts are also prone to leaving indentations, thus damaging the roof. Automatically, this reduces the lifespan of the roof, which means the roof will certainly not serve you for long as expected.

Roof penetrations can be the best way to install equipment if done by professionals.

On the other hand, blow-offs caused by storms or wind may lead to severe damage to your roof if not handled as soon as they occur. Getting a professional with the know-how to handle such is very important, and at JeffCo & Beyond, we perfectly know how to handle them.
