Why do commercial roofs carry more risk than houses?
A pitched residential roof sheds some of what lands on it. A flat or low-slope commercial roof sheds nothing, so every storm adds to what is already there and the load only goes one direction until someone removes it.
- Drains and scuppers freeze first. Once they are blocked, meltwater ponds instead of leaving, and ponded water is far heavier than the snow it came from.
- Parapet walls trap drifts. Wind loads snow against the parapet, concentrating weight along the edges rather than spreading it evenly.
- Rooftop equipment creates drift shadows. Units, curbs and screens all collect deep drifts on their lee side.
- Long clear spans have less reserve. Warehouses and retail boxes are engineered close to their design load.
What does a commercial clearing visit include?
Work is scheduled with the property manager and sequenced so the building keeps operating:
- Drains, scuppers and internal roof drains opened first, so meltwater can leave
- Snow removed to a leave-behind depth agreed in advance, never scraped to the membrane
- Drift zones at parapets and equipment reduced to match the rest of the field
- Ice removed from eaves, overhangs and canopy edges with steam
- Discharge areas managed so entries, walkways and parking stay usable
- Photographs of the roof before and after, with the scope in writing for the building file
Membrane roofs need particular care. Plastic tools and a leave-behind layer are what keep a TPO, EPDM or modified-bitumen surface intact.
What does Dublin weather do to a commercial roof here?
Regular work through Historic Dublin, Muirfield Village, Tartan Fields, Ballantrae, among others. It means the honest answer often lies in the attic, not on the roof surface.
For a flat roof that means a pack that stays put and keeps building, and drainage that is frozen exactly when the melt arrives. The result is ponding on top of an already loaded deck — which is the condition behind most winter structural calls.
Who is this for?
Property managers, facility managers, building owners and tenants responsible for their own roof under a lease. Retail, warehouse and light industrial, offices and medical buildings, churches and schools, restaurants and apartment buildings.
Seasonal arrangements are available where clearing is triggered by an agreed snow depth, so the decision is not being made during the storm. That also produces a documented maintenance record, which matters if a claim is ever filed.
