Spring Snow: Hidden Risks for Commercial Buildings
🌨️ 🌨️
Spring may be around the corner, but late-season snow can still put your commercial property at risk. Heavy, wet snow adds extra weight to roofs, overhangs, and aging structures, leading to potential leaks, ice dams, and structural stress. 🌡️❄️
🔍 Key risks to watch for:
✔️ Roof Load Concerns – Melting snow combined with new snowfall can strain older or weakened roofs.
✔️ Ice Dams & Water Intrusion – Freeze-thaw cycles can cause water to seep into ceilings and walls, leading to costly damage.
✔️ Drainage Issues – Blocked gutters and downspouts increase the risk of foundation flooding and structural erosion.
✔️ Slip Hazards – Melting snow refreezing overnight creates dangerous ice patches in parking lots and entryways.
💡 Prevent costly damage with a professional inspection. Our expert evaluations help identify risks before they turn into major problems.
