Nothing
lasts forever. A roof, the fifth
wall of a building, is exposed to sunlight and harmful UV rays, freeze thaw
cycles, and temperature variations causing expansion and contraction. In New Mexico, UV’s are
maximized, freeze thaw lasts for five months and temperature variations can be
in 40 to 50 degree range. A very bad
climate for roofs. Then there is neglect.
A roof, “the fifth wall” of a building, is a critical asset. Why don’t roofs last twenty years like they are designed? – Bad management. Roofs are largely ignored until they leak and then it is too late to extend the life of the roof. A roof is a big investment to a building owner - equal to 6% to 10% of the cost of the building. It protects the other assets beneath the roof.
Life
cycle analysis of roofing will always show that maintenance extends the life of a
roof - that equals a good investment.
