For commercial building owners in need of a new roof, one of the most common concerns is the amount of time a roof replacement project will take from start to finish. After all, when it comes to business, time is money, and you can\u2019t always be sure you can remain open or during renovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you can keep your doors open during the renovation process, business traffic will be limited to a degree, making roof replacement promptness a necessity. Accordingly, no one wants their commercial building or office to remain a construction zone longer than it has to. So, if you need roof replacement, you are likely wondering the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are a business owner in need of dire roof replacement, continue reading to learn the facts you need to know about the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commercial Roof Replacement Timelines Vary<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is difficult to provide an exact timeline for commercial roof replacement because every new roofing project is different. Each job has its own set of unique factors and limitations that might influence the overall amount of time it takes to finish. There are also uncontrollable factors to consider, like storms and natural disasters. Furthermore, commercial roofing systems tend to be much larger, and therefore, require a wider scope of construction and building code considerations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although it is near impossible to put an exact timeline on commercial roof installation, here are some fundamental construction facts that can help you get an idea of what to expect:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small Roofs Versus Large Roofing Systems<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a general rule of thumb, the smaller the commercial roof, the less time it will take to install. For example: businesses inside buildings that were once zoned residential tend to have low to moderately-pitched roofing systems. These have the potential of being installed in as little as a few days; that is, so long as the weather permits and there are not any other obstacles getting in the way of construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Larger commercial roofing systems require a more invasive effort, including more construction equipment, more materials, more labor, and more risk. For these reasons, larger commercial buildings will require a longer construction timeline for roof replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unanticipated Obstacles Must Be Considered<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You must understand that unexpected obstacles can arise at any time. This often happens after a construction crew removes an old commercial roof, which is a step that must be done prior to new roof installation. After removing the existing roofing, commercial contractors will be able to identify any damaged sub-roofing. Finding damaged sub-roofing will mean extra work, which will also mean more materials and more time to finish the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there are no damaged areas of sub-roofing, the shingle installation process can commence. Older commercial roofs tend to pose higher risk of unforeseen challenges since needed repairs can be revealed after work has already begun, thus extending the total time it takes to finishing installing a new commercial roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
