High winds can cause severe damage to commercial roofs from uplift, debris impact and more. Here are some tips to minimize wind damage:
| Preventive Measures | Explanation |
| Regularly clear roof drains and remove debris to prevent clogging | Clogged drains can lead to water ponding, which can cause leaks and damage to the roof structure. |
| Trim overhanging tree branches near the roof | Overhanging branches can damage the roof during strong winds or storms, and falling leaves can clog drains. |
| Install wind-rated rooftop equipment secured to the deck | Properly secured equipment can withstand high winds and prevent damage to the roof. |
| Examine flashing, membranes for signs of loosening and make repairs | Loose or damaged flashing and membranes can allow water to seep into the building, causing leaks and interior damage. |
| For older roofs, apply sealants and adhesives around vulnerable spots | As roofs age, they become more susceptible to leaks. Applying sealants and adhesives can help prevent water infiltration and extend the life of the roof. |
| Fix leaks promptly since water infiltration can undermine roof integrity | Leaks can cause damage to the roof deck, insulation, and building interior if left unrepaired. |
| Consider installing a stronger roof system when replacing aged roofs | Older roofs may not be designed to withstand current weather conditions. Upgrading to a stronger roof system can provide better protection for the building. |
