## Why choose preventive maintenance ?
## 1. Prevention Over Repair
### Regular maintenance helps :
- Identify open joints, cracks, or other damage before they cause leaks.
- Clean drains and remove debris to prevent blockages and water buildup.
- Maintain your warranties by meeting manufacturer requirements.
## 2. Maximize Your Roof's Lifespan
With proper maintenance, you can extend your roof's lifespan by several years, avoiding significant costs related to premature reroofing.
## 3. Tailoring Maintenance to Your Reality
### Every building is unique. We adjust our interventions based on :
- The environment (proximity to trees, windy areas, etc.).
- The age and type of your roof.
- Specific needs identified during inspections.

## Our Approach: A Tailored Program
Key steps of our preventive maintenance program:
1
Complete Initial Inspection
We assess the overall condition of your roof to identify immediate and future needs.
2
Cleaning and Maintenance
Drains cleared, debris removed, and critical points such as joints and membranes checked.
3
Customized Planning
Regular visits tailored to your roof (twice a year or as specific needs require).
4
Detailed Report
After each visit, we provide a clear report with photos and recommendations.
"We adjust our schedules based on your roof's actual condition, because every client's situation is unique."
Stéphane Poissantpresident
## Economic Benefits
- Avoid costly repairs through early problem detection (for example, sealing an open joint for $200 instead of dealing with $5,000 in damage).
- Reduce your energy costs by maintaining optimal insulation.
- Preserve your building's value through thorough documentation of all work performed.
## Roof Snow Removal : A Natural Complement
Preventive maintenance to protect your roof and equipment is a year-round job. During winter, our on-demand snow removal service is ideal for preventing dangerous buildup or water infiltration. Our expertise ensures safe intervention without damaging your roof. Another great way to extend your roof's lifespan!
## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How often do you recommend preventive maintenance? We generally recommend two inspections per year (spring and fall), though this can vary depending on your roof's environment and age.
Which types of roofs need the most maintenance? All types of roofs benefit from regular maintenance, but certain conditions call for extra vigilance. This includes roofs near trees, exposed to strong winds, or subject to heavy traffic (maintenance, mechanical equipment, etc.).
Is maintenance necessary for a new roof? Yes! Even a new roof needs follow-up to maintain its warranties and prevent issues related to its environment.
"Thanks to Ernest Hotte Inc.'s preventive maintenance program, we avoided costly leaks and extended the lifespan of our roof."
