 ROOFING,
WINDOWS AND WATERPROOFING
Roofing and windows are potential sources of water infiltration
that could result in serious damage to facade support elements.
Early detection and analysis of possible problems is critical.
Modern construction materials and techniques present cost-efficient
options for repair and replacement of roof and window systems,
while the FacadeMDTeam's expertise in resolving problems with unique
and historic structures, offers realistic solutions to issues
of restoration and preservation.
FacadeMD Survey Teams will carefully assess the cause, extent and
severity of water infiltration and damage. Then, FacadeMDwill analyze
the results and present solution options taking into consideration
the anticipated life of the structure, cost of repair vs. replacement
(which in older structures may also relate to energy and future
maintenance costs), historical restoration considerations and
restrictions, or cosmetic concerns.
FacadeMD has experience with virtually all roofing materials and architectural
treatments including historic clay tile, slate, sheet metal, asphaltic
and single-ply, and roofing structures from timber-supported types
to steel framing and truss-supported structures.
Thorough professional examination of existing conditions, review
of legacy data and discussions with owner/managers are critical
to arriving at the best short-term "quick fix" and long-term solution
alternatives & decisions that can optimize the building's life
span and economic usefulness.
