One of the surest signs of spring is the ongoing chorus of chirps and tweets from our feathered friends. But for business owners, these calls can be the first warning to a serious problem; one which affects nearly every property owner at one point or another and often requires costly emergency roof repair.
Nesting birds may seem harmless, but they can take a serious toll on industrial roofing. Accumulation of debris, as well as droppings can lead to a messy rooftop situation for many business owners. Unfortunately, the law dictates that once nesting season has begun, business owners are essentially at the mercy of nature.
Luckily, there are options. Prior to the official beginning of nesting season, property owners can call in a reputable industrial roofing company to help with the removal of nests, as well as taking preventative steps to avoid future problems. Roof services provided by these companies not only help with the removal of pesky nesters, but can also help prevent other problems by performing semi-annual evaluations.
Emergency roof repair can be a costly undertaking, especially when preventative maintenance can be performed easily, and at a significantly lower price. Roof services such as debris removal, nest removal, and spot repairs can be done at the very beginning of the warm season, long before accumulation causes any serious damage.
Once the nesting season has begun, however, business owners must simply sit and watch as rooftop problems continue to mount. By seeking out an established industrial roofing company to provide upkeep and other ongoing roof services early in the season, business owners can avoid the costs and headaches associated with emergency roof repair.
