If you are looking to save your company a lot of money throughout the years, then a cool roof may be the perfect addition to your commercial building. Here are a few things you need to know about these innovative structures so you can decide if they are right for your commercial needs.
What is a Cool Roof?
So what exactly is a cool roof? It is essentially a roofing system that delivers higher solar reflectance as well as higher thermal emittance, compared to standard roofs. In the past, they were usually light or lighter in color, but now can be dark and still retain their solar reflective properties. They can be made out of a wide variety of materials. Some of these include sheet covering, highly reflective tiles, and a reflective type of paint.

How to Take Care of Your Commercial Roofing
Your commercial roof is not designed to last forever. The
elements and mere aging can cause it to lose its aesthetics and integrity. You
can prolong its life, though, with a little maintenance and tender loving care.
Inspect the Gutters
A pivotal component of any commercial roofing is the gutter
system. This is what directs water away from your property. Therefore, it needs
to be in pristine condition all the time. Check the downspouts to make sure
they are pointed away from your property. Also, make sure the gutters are
structurally sound and clean. Clogged gutters can cause water buildup around
your property’s foundation. This leaves your home susceptible to water damage
and leaks, if such buildup is neglected.
Leak Detection
In terms of repairs, leaks are among the most expensive when
neglected. That’s why you need to do your best to identify leaks as quickly as
possible. You can do this yourself or hire a roofing contractor to do it. The
latter is preferred if you don’t have experience or enough time on your hands.
A contractor inspects the interior and exterior of your home
to see what areas are problematic or causing the leaks to develop. It may be as
simple as replacing the gutter system or replacing a damaged area in the attic.
Contractors use many diagnostic tests and tools to make sure your roof is in
proper condition.
Maintaining your commercial roof is important, both for your
customers and employees. Taking care of small issues, like leaks and gutter
problems, can save your company fortunes down the road.

Why are Fall and Winter Good for Roofing Work?
It may sound dubious given how rainy November through February can be, but it’s a good idea to have roofing work done in the fall and winter. Whether the impending job involves maintenance or an installation, here are the two main reasons why you should be doing it soon.
Perfect timing
Fall tends to be the most popular season for roofing work – not the least because the onset of rain, wind, and falling leaves forces many property owners to call for inspections.

Why Commercial Roofing Should Switch to Cool Roofs
Despite being around for more than twenty years, not many people are aware of cool roofs being utilized in commercial buildings. While real estate property owners might frown about using a more expensive commercial roofing material instead of the cheaper conventional roof materials, there’s no denying that the cost benefit of using cool roofs far outweighs the initial extra costs.
