The facility management profession is one of the most underrated and least exposed.

To succeed at this role, you would have to excel at communicating, leading, yet also be technical and able to oversee the trades. You are answering to your direct supervisor and in some sense, to the building occupants you serve.

Not to mention, you have to stay agile and adaptable as new technologies emerge, new regulations pass, and budget constraints require constant prioritization.

So what do roof coatings have to do with any of this?

We believe that this could be an innovative solution in the facility management industry as roof coatings solve a few pain points you currently have including:

1. Minimizing Waste Management

It’s proven that roof coatings are a more environmentally sustainable option for roof issues for buildings. Most roof coatings manufacturers use recycled materials to develop roof coatings. More importantly, installing roof coatings uses significantly less waste than a roof replacement and most products still offer a similar warranty as a re-roof.

2. Minimizing Disruption/Faster Turnaround

Installing roof coatings is inherently quieter than all the noise, waste, and disruption involved with a roof replacement. Something that people may not realize is that roof coatings don’t require a permit, therefore, the installation is always faster than a roof replacement. This means the industrial roofing contractors are less of a presence at your operations. Depending on the scope of a project and weather conditions, roof coatings can take anywhere from a matter of days up to several weeks.

(Note: For much larger projects, it can take a fews month and even still it is a faster solution than replacement.)

3. Cost and Budget Friendly

This may be the most compelling reason to consider coatings. We have historically seen that the pricing for roof coatings gives clients a saving of anywhere from 25%-70% as compared to a roof replacement. This means you’ll have more left in your budget to allocate to other pressing matters while ensuring your buildings are protected.

Summary

Facility Management is a complex role that requires juggling many hats effectively. By considering roof coatings for your facilities, you are able to stop leaks and contribute to other performance indicators in your role: reduction in waste, reduction in down time, and reduction in spending.

Plus, if you choose a reliable and reputable commercial roofing contractor then you can rest easy knowing that all warranty calls will be fulfilled as promised in a timely manner.
