*Note: Each roofing system is unique and has slightly different, basic maintenance requirements. Your specific needs will be outlined on your maintenance agreement.
Roofs that are maintained from the date of installation have a lower maintenance cost than those that are permitted to deteriorate for several years. Weather conditions, pollution and heavy foot traffic take a serious toll on roofing systems. Minor problems should be corrected before they become major ones.
