Aging Roofing - Throw It Away or Recover Link  [ more ] [ hide ]		Administration	5/18/2018
Presented by Wade Vorley, Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates Inc. - May 16, 2018. We all know that roofing materials have a finite life and as they age roof leaks can become a thorn in your side, upset tenants, and increase maintenance costs. At this point, roofing materials are typically removed, the trash sent to landfills, and the entire assembly, including insulation, installed new. Sometimes roofing systems can be recovered but the success of this method is often limited. This power hour outlines when a recover is advantageous, pitfalls to avoid, and a few methods to make your recover a success.
