Roof Budget Services

            “Crap Shoot”, “Shot in the Dark”, “Educated Guess”. Property Owners, Managers, and Engineers alike have used these exact terms in describing their gut level feeling when finally arriving at the bottom line figure for the next year’s roofing budget. That is perfectly understandable given the fact that roof budgeting is not an exact science.

            A common approach is to look at last year’s expenses and add 10% - 15%. But those nagging questions about each of your property’s roofs still beg for hard answers

1.      Exactly what type and how many roofs are on each property?

2.      Will the pace of needed repairs accelerate and how fast?

3.      Are certain areas of the roof experiencing greater problems than others?

4.      Were previously repaired leaks located in the field or at the flashings?

5.      Is there trouble brewing up there and can it be prevented?

6.      How many years will out property’s roof last?

7.      How much should we budget for emergency repairs?

8.      How much should we budget for preventative maintenance, if necessary?

9.      How much should we budget for roof replacement, if necessary?

Empire Roofing will assist you in this process. We evaluate each of your property’s roofs including the following:

1.      Core sample of each roof to determine existing construction and the number of roofs in the place on the roof.

2.      Photos of the roof and close-ups of all problem areas

3.      Report of conditions of the field and flashing area of the roof.

4.      Estimate in years of the roofs remaining serviceable life.

5.      Exact figures for:

a.       Anticipated yearly maintenance

b.      Preventative roof maintenance items if needed and their effect on lengthening of your roofs serviceable life.

c.       Roof replacement options and costs, if necessary.
