When looking into professional commercial roofing installation you may wonder how long a job like that could take. Commercial roofing installation is not a small undertaking, so what is the timeframe typically like? Here are some of the things that lead to the total time taken for commercial roofing installation.
- Materials: Every roof is different, and the material that the roof is made out of greatly affects the total time required to build it. Something like a single-play roof is much simpler and more durable, and it can be installed faster than other materials.
- Vents, Pipes, Etc.: There is a lot more that goes into roofing than just rolling it out. Things need to be built into the roof, and this can take a lot of time. The more complex the systems the more time it will take to install the roof.
- Style: Adding things that do more than make the roof a flat square will affect the time to build. Things like skylights or slopes will add extra time to the building process.
- Variables: Variables such as rain, snow, wind, can all add extra time to the building process. A dedicated team will not be able to work as fast in weather, and if the weather is bad enough, they will not be able to work at all.
The time it takes to build a commercial roof can stretch massively. The average can be a few weeks, but of course smaller buildings do not take as much time and huge buildings will take a lot longer. Make sure to consider what factors add more time to the roof when thinking about commercial roofing installation.
