Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial Roofing

At Seald Roofing (formerly Fisher Roof Solutions), we understand that commercial property owners and managers have many
questions when it comes to roofing systems. Whether you’re considering a new **Conklin roofing
system**, need a roof restoration, or have concerns about maintenance, we’re here to help. Below are
answers to some of the most common questions we receive about commercial roofing

General Commercial Roofing Questions

1. What types of commercial roofing do you install and repair?

We specialize in Conklin roofing systems, which include cool roofing, spray polyurethane foam
(SPF), single-ply membranes, and elastomeric coatings. These solutions are designed for durability,
energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings. We also provide repair and maintenance services for
metal, flat, and low-slope roofs.

2. How do I know if my commercial roof needs repair or replacement?

Signs that your commercial roof may need attention include:
– Leaks or water stains inside the building
– Cracks, blisters, or bubbling on the roof surface
– Pooling water on flat roofs
– Increased energy costs which may indicate poor insulation or reflectivity
– Rust or corrosion on metal roofing

3. What are the benefits of a Conklin roofing system?

Conklin roofing systems offer:
– Energy savings: High-reflectivity coatings reduce cooling costs
– Seamless waterproofing: Protects against leaks and ponding water
– Longevity: Extends the life of your existing roof
– Low maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep compared to traditional roofing systems
– Eco-friendly solutions: Many Conklin systems are ENERGY STAR® certified

Roof Coatings & Restoration

4. What is a commercial roof coating, and how does it work?

A commercial roof coating is a seamless, waterproof layer applied over your existing roof to enhance
its durability, energy efficiency, and weather resistance. Conklin roof coatings are known for their
reflectivity, which helps lower indoor temperatures and reduce HVAC costs

5. Can a roof coating extend the life of my roof?

Yes! A Conklin elastomeric roof coating can add 10-20 years to your existing roof, preventing the
need for a costly replacement. It also protects against UV damage, ponding water, and leaks.

6. Is roof restoration better than replacement?

In many cases, roof restoration is a more cost-effective and sustainable option than a full
replacement. Benefits of restoration include:
– Lower costs compared to tearing off and installing a new roof
– Less downtime for your business
– No landfill waste, making it an environmentally friendly solution
– Extended roof lifespan without major disruption
However, if your roof has severe structural damage, a replacement may be necessary. We can
assess your roof and recommend the best solution.

Commercial Roof Installation & Cost

7. How long does it take to install or restore a commercial roof?

The timeline depends on the scope of the project:
– Roof coatings: 2-5 days
– Single-ply membrane installation: 1-2 weeks
– Full tear-off & replacement: 2-4 weeks
We aim to complete projects quickly and efficiently while minimizing disruption to your business.

Maintenance & Warranty

8. How often should I inspect and maintain my commercial roof?

We recommend a professional inspection at least twice a year—in the spring and fall—to catch
minor issues before they become costly problems. Regular maintenance includes:
– Checking for leaks and cracks
– Clearing debris and drainage systems
– Reapplying protective coatings as needed

9. Do you offer warranties on your commercial roofing systems?

Yes! We provide Conklin-backed warranties ranging from 10 to 20 years depending on the system
installed. These warranties cover material performance and durability, giving you peace of mind.

10. What happens if my roof is damaged by storms or severe weather?

If your roof sustains storm damage, we offer:
– Emergency repairs to prevent further damage
– Insurance claim assistance to help you navigate the process
– Full roof restoration options using Conklin coatings or new materials
