The Value of Proactive Roof Maintenance
Semi-annual roof surveys plus preventative maintenance services can save you money.
The National Roofing Contractors Association's (NRCA) preventative maintenance study showed that regular surveys and proactive maintenance can reduce annual costs and extend a roof's life by 30%. Chamberlin's clients have seen proof of these results with our Proactive Roof Asset Management (PRAM) program.
To meet NRCA's recommendations for best roofing practives as well as manufacturer warranty requirements, Chamberlin conducts semi-annual surveys of your roof and documents any deficiencies found - whether emergency or remedial. Our online asset management tool brings the rooftop to your computer screen and allows you to view all deficiency conditions, photos and repair budgets. From there, dispatching a work order is as easy as clicking a button.
The ultimate goal is to reduce annual repair and maintenance costs and extend the life of your roof. Start your proactive maintenance plan today and start realizing the savings.
