David Lederman discusses M Gottfried, Inc’s roof maintenance
During our inspections we will find holes, nicks, flashings that are open or starting to open, etc., Some of these items may be causing leaks, others may not, but if left unrepaired will start to leak in the future. By having a maintenance inspection and performing the recommended work, these items will be sealed and not turn into leaks. Less leaks mean less tenant headaches, interior water damage repair, water damaged equipment replacement, etc. – regular maintenance will therefore cut down on your operating costs.

Roof maintenance is crucial to keep your roof watertight and performing at its best. It doesn’t matter whether you have a new roof under a manufacturers warranty, a roof in the middle of its life, or a roof at the end of its life expectancy – regular roof maintenance is essential. M. Gottfried, Inc. will come to your property, inspect your roof and provide a report describing our maintenance recommendations.
Having a preventative roof maintenance inspection can find problems before they turn into leaks.
As an example, we find holes in the roof made by servicemen, or debris blowing around on the roof, or piles of leaves and debris inhibiting drainage or blocking drains, or even openings in laps, flashings and terminations. Some of these can occur at any stage of a roof’s life. In addition, leaks might not occur from the items immediately, but may take time to work through the roofing layers and insulation. By the time leaks appear, a larger repair may be needed.

Roof maintenance not only involves understanding how your flat roof works but also how the architectural sheet metal work, the perimeter edge systems and sloped metal roofing, connects and interacts with it. Leaks can originate in the metal trim, edging, counterflashing, or metal roofs. Water can then travel down and appear to come from under the flat roof.
Our thorough inspections will not only concentrate on the flat roof, but will also look at the metal details to see if they are in need of repair. M. Gottfried, Inc. has a full architectural sheet metal shop, and can fabricate custom copper, aluminum, galvanized steel and stainless metal flashings and roofs.

How often do I need to do maintenance on my roof?
We recommend performing roof maintenance once in the fall after the leaves come down to find and correct any issues caused by the summer sun and storms, and then again in the spring after the leaves come out and winter and cold have had their go at the roof. Of course, you, the owner can determine how often maintenance is done.

Do you do water tests?
Yes, depending on where the leaks are appearing, what we see in our inspection, if the leak is difficult to find or only shows in certain rains, then it may be necessary to perform a water test to track down the source of the leak. Sometimes, after repairing difficult leaks, or if the owner requests it, we can water test after the repair to make sure the leak was found and has stopped.
