Tips to Prevent Delays in Commercial Roofing Projects

Delays in a commercial roofing projects are a big deal, no matter the size and scope. The most common include inclement weather, permit processing and miscommunication between the property owner and contractor. Fortunately, many of these can be managed. Read on as Dior Construction, one of the top commercial and residential roofing contractors in the area, discusses ways to prevent these delays.

Prepare Documentation

Commercial roof replacement requires a permit application, which means the building will have to be inspected first before the project gets approved. Processing can take a long time, however, which is why you should prepare all the necessary documentation to minimize delays. Talking to an experienced roofing contractor helps you set expectations as to the timeframe between the permit application and its approval.

Anticipate Inclement Weather

Outside construction work, including commercial roof replacement or residential roof repair, often runs the risk of elemental exposure. Weather is something that’s out of our control, after all, so it makes sense to plan for potential downpours. Taking seasonal weather patterns into account when plotting the project’s timeline and coming up with a backup plan in the event of unusually bad weather can help prevent delays.

Ensure Safety Around the Property

The presence of safety risks in and around the commercial property can also lead to roofing project delays. Secure the safety of all workers who will work on your roof, as well as potential onlookers by installing proper signages that explicitly communicate about risks. Also, work with a professional roofing contractor that implements safety precautions in every project they tackle.

Establish Clear Communication With Chosen Contractor

Having clear communication between you and your chosen contractor helps make sure the commercial roofing project runs smoothly. Proper planning is imperative to mitigate delays in material deliveries due to wrong orders or unavailable routes, as well as unexpected repairs during the actual installation.
