Your roof is a vital part of your building. In fact, 70% of significant building problems are related to roof or building envelope problems. When an existing roof is nearing the end of its life cycle, or a severe weather event has caused extensive damage, you will need to consider a complete re-roof. At REHAB, we know it is a substantial and critical investment, and we pride ourselves in always providing honest and expert insights when you request one of our free inspections. Whether you’re considering a conventional new roof system, or the environmental benefits of green / sustainable roofing or cool roof membranes,  you can rest assured REHAB will always look out for your best interests.

In a nutshell, the process of retrofitting a building consists in modifying existing structures with additional or new components. For many building owners, this represents an opportunity to upgrade the energy performance of commercial building assets for their ongoing life, therefore reducing operational costs, particularly in older buildings. Often retrofit involves modifications to existing commercial buildings that may improve energy efficiency or decrease energy demand. At REHAB, we have ample experience in retroffiting, and we will be happy to help you make the best decision for your building.

The purpose of commercial roof coatings is to improve the performance of your roof and increase its lifespan. Roof coatings are designed to be spray or roll-applied directly to your existing roof surface. This new coating protects your building from leaks thanks to its monolithic structure (meaning no seams), self-adhering properties (meaning no fasteners), and flashing capabilities (meaning no special features around pipes, just one membrane). Coatings are an excellent option when you want to extend the life of a roof by reflecting damaging ultraviolet rays away from the roof’s membrane, or restore a moderately-aged roof to a waterproof, watertight condition. In addition, reflective coatings help reduce cooling costs and also improve the appearance of visible roofs. At REHAB, we can help you decide whether coatings are a suitable solution for your roof, and our expert crews will insure a precise and uniform application.

If you are a building owner or facility manager, roofing costs have always been among your major concerns. Proactive versus reactive maintenance is a good place to start. Owners and facility managers who inspect and repair their roof routinely, as opposed to reacting to problems as they occur, pay on average 18% less per square foot annually for maintenance. Proactively maintained roofs last an average of 21 years compared to an average lifespan of 13 years for reactive maintenance. You can trust REHAB’s expertise for a maintenance program that will save you a lot of money over the years, and help maintain your roof’s integrity for the expected lifespan of the materials used for your roof. 

Severe weather events are unexpected, sudden and often cause tremendous damage. When storms, hurricanes, strong winds or hail strike an area, business facilities and other commercial properties often bear the brunt, and business owners are left scrambling to repair damaged property and recover from the catastrophe. When disaster strikes your building and you find yourself in need of emergency commercial roof repair, REHAB will be ready to work fast and professionally to help you minimize the financial impact of the storm.

If your roof has a leak, moisture can saturate insulation in the roofing system, leading to mold, health concerns, and potential issues with your roof. Rather than spend lots of money on roof repairs and services, we use infrared thermography to identify temperature differences created by saturated insulation in the roof. Our certified thermographers use cutting edge infrared equipment to locate the areas of saturation. This allows you to know exactly the nature of the actions needed to correct a possible problem.
