A commercial proposal should state which roof areas and details the work covers, how the building stays accessible and what happens if conditions change.
Read the proposal alongside the inspection findings. Confirm which roof sections and details are covered, who handles site access and how any conditions outside the scope will be reported.
Contact Dekoven Roofing to discuss a commercial roof assessment. Include the building address and the name of the person who can arrange access.
A flat roof proposal should say what system, what area and what details.
Match scope before price so proposals are comparable.
Look at how the proposal treats edges, parapets and penetrations, since many flat roof failures start there. Check whether tapered insulation is included where drainage is poor.
Also confirm what happens to the old roof. Tear-off, recover and partial replacement lead to very different costs and results.
How is the existing roof handled? What is assumed about hidden conditions?
Ask for revision.
Confirm.
Ask for the same scope priced each way.
