Roof Maintenance Services on a Spring and Fall Schedule
Roof maintenance services from Foundry Roofing put flat, low-slope and shingle roofs on Queens commercial, multi-family and residential buildings under one scheduled plan. Spring and fall inspections, minor repairs and storm checks are included, so small defects close before water reaches the deck.

Roof by roof
Five tasks every visit, matched to your roof
Each visit runs these tasks on your roof system.
| Task | Flat and low-slopeTPO, EPDM, modified bitumen | Asphalt shingleGAF, Owens Corning |
|---|---|---|
| Drains, scuppers, gutters | Drains and scuppers cleared | Gutters and downspouts flushed |
| Flashing | Base and curb flashing resealed | Step and pipe flashing resealed |
| Seams and surface | Open seams welded or patched | Lifted shingles resealed or replaced |
| Hatches and windows | Bilco hatch gaskets checked | VELUX window flashing checked |
| Photo report | Dated photos, marked roof plan | Dated photos, slope by slope |
Membrane failure too large for a patch moves to membrane roof repair.
Maintenance year
The roof's year in four visits
Spring inspection
Winter freeze-thaw damage, lifted flashing and ponding water still standing 48 hours after rain.
Fall inspection
Drains, gutters and flashing cleared and sealed before the first freeze.
After a storm
Damage check for wind uplift, with extra attention on coastal-exposed roofs. Confirmed wind damage goes to hurricane roof repair.
Winter
Snow and ice cleared from flat roofs and drains so meltwater can run off.
Deferred maintenance vs contract
Skipped visits against a signed plan
Clogged drains leave ponding water that ages a membrane early. Failed flashing at curbs and parapets becomes interior leaks. The roof reaches replacement years early.
Each visit is dated and photographed. That record is how documented upkeep keeps a long-term warranty valid. Our roof maintenance services run on apartment buildings, warehouses, schools, churches, hospitals and homes, and each roof lasts longer for it. Roofs new to us start with a standalone inspection that sets the baseline.
What is in the scope of work for a maintenance visit?
Five tasks: drain and gutter clearing, flashing resealing, seam and surface patching, hatch and roof window checks, then a photo report.
What types of roof maintenance are there?
Three. Preventive visits on a schedule, reactive repairs for defects a visit turns up, and emergency response after storms.
How does maintenance change for a snowy Queens winter?
Two ways. The fall visit seals flashing before freeze-thaw opens it, and we clear snow and ice so drains keep running.
Does a roof near the water need different maintenance?
Yes. Salt air corrodes edge metal, fasteners and hatch hardware faster, and coastal wind works perimeter seams loose, so we check both.
