1. Leaves and other materials can hold moisture, causing deterioration of the roofing materials, so always clear off any loose objects and accumulated debris.
2. If there has been severe weather event, make sure that you inspect the roof for damage. Multiple storms can reduce the strength of the roof and damage or weaken it enough that it will eventually fail.
3. Get rid of any leaves, twigs, and other debris from gutters and downspouts so that gutter can drain properly. Also, make sure the gutters have gutter straps which resist uplift, particularly if your building is in a high, wind-prone area.
4. Seal any gaps around vents and equipment with flashing cement.
5. If there had been any previous roof leaks or other problems, please check those areas to make sure that all commercial roof maintenance and repair is holding properly.
6. It is always good to keep the nearby trees trimmed as the branches of the trees can cause damage by rubbing against the roof and the leaves can clog drains and gutters.
7. If there has been any heavy hail storm, an inspection is necessary to determine if there is any damage to your roof.
