Severe Winter Weather On Flat Roofs
Severe winter weather can pose a threat to commercial roofs. Deep snow can also result in a total or partial roof collapse that can cause extensive damage to the interior contents. This is a particular problem for flat roofs, which are often used in commercial construction. Similarly, ice dams can back up underneath a roof covering leading to water leaks into the attic. For business owners such losses could wreak havoc to their bottom line.
Utica National has issued a handy risk management advisory about severe winter weather and roofs. The advisory includes general guidelines to help estimate the weight of snow.
