| This time of year the elements can wreck havoc with your
businesses roof. The constant change in temperature and
precipitation are common causes in this area. If you are currently experiencing a roofing leak contact CanAM
immediately. |

|
| Roof top heating and cooling units conceal
problem areas of melted snow frozen to ice that cause cracks
in the roof and eventually leaks. |
If your roof looks something like this you probably have ice
damming issues.
|
|
 |
 |
| More examples of winter roofing conditions
that lead to freeze and thaw conditions that contribute to
roof leaks |
Built up snow acts as an insulated blanket
causing ice to form under it. When it freezes it backs up in
valleys and finds cracks in the roof and leaks into the
building. |
|
 |
 |
| Typical ice build-up under HVAC units causes
separations and ice damming leading to leaks. |
This is a typical cold weather or winter
repair to stop leaks caused by ice damming. |
|
 |
 |
| Heavy ice in eaves causes a separation from
the wall and allows ice to back up causing leaks. |
Metal seam separations as seen here will
allow ice as seen above to back up and cause interior leaks.
Regular preventative maintenance will help head off this
problem. |

Typical
Commercial Roof Repairs
CanAM
will schedule regular maintenance programs which will extend
a roofs life and protect your investment.... |
|
 |
 |
| An older EPDM roof has separated at the seam
and needed to be repaired with a new patch. |
Again an older EPDM roof has come away from
the perimeter wall allowing water to enter the building
below |
 |
 |
| Sealants around older skylights need to be
maintained to prevent leaking |
New commercial grade mastics are applied to
the problem areas |
 |
 |
| Curbs around HVAC units are the cause of
many leaks. In this case the gravel and asphalt have been
scraped back and new base sheet has been heat applied. |
To complete the repair a new granular cap
sheet is adhered, hot asphalt is poured and the gravel is
returned. Good as new again.... |
 |
 |
| As part of routine maintenance and repairs
all pitch pockets are topped up with fresh sealants. |
Routinely all sealants should be inspected
and those requiring should be topped up |
