Roof Basics 

We know roofing

Purchasing a roof system is often a once-in-a-generation event for many building owners. In that time, technologies, materials, and building codes can change dramatically. For first-time buyers, understanding a few fundamentals can make all the difference.

At Lutz Roofing, we perform a thorough needs assessment so we can design and install the right proven systems for our customers. Lutz always uses manufacturer-approved methods, backed by warranties and maintained for long-term performance.

Why Roofs Fail Prematurely

Choosing the Right System Every building is different. The best roofing solution depends on factors such as:

Importance of Proper Terminations

Proper terminations are critical to the long-term performance of any commercial roofing system. As the transition points where the membrane meets walls, edges, curbs, and penetrations, terminations are the most vulnerable areas of the roof—and the most common source of leaks. In fact, the majority of roofing failures originate at poorly designe or deteriorated terminations. Ensuring these details are correctly desgned, installed, and maintained is essential to prevent water infiltration, protect your building’s interior, and preserve the integrity of the entire roofing system.

Safety First

Even with legal disclaimers in place, building owners can be pulled into lawsuits. Ensure your contractor has a documented safety program and that fall protection is integrated into the roof design.

Understand the Warranty

Not all warranties are the same. Full system warranties from the membrane manufacturer ensure accountability. Avoid piecemeal warranties that could conflict. And remember: warranties do not replace maintenance agreements they require annual inspections.
