How We Tackle Eastern Iowa’s Weather
Cedar Rapids and surrounding areas in the midwest face unique weather challenges. At CentiMark, we understand these conditions and offer specific solutions to protect your roof and keep your business running smoothly:
✔ Severe Storms & High Winds:
Powerful storms can cause damage that disrupts business operations. CentiMark’s roofing team can reinforce roof systems with durable materials while offering emergency repair services to address urgent needs associated with storm damage.
✔ Heavy Rainfall:
Eastern Iowa’s frequent heavy rain can lead to pooling water and roof leaks. To help prevent these issues, we install advanced waterproofing systems and drainage solutions to keep your roof dry and to avoid water damage.
✔ Hailstorms:
Due to its location in the Great Plains, Iowa possesses the ideal atmospheric conditions for large hailstorms. Since hail can cause punctures and dents, CentiMark can recommend hail-resistant roofing materials for buildings in this area. Regular roof inspections are also important so contractors can identify and repair damage before they progress into larger problems.
✔ Snow and Ice Accumulation:
Harsh winters, common to the midwest, come with snow loads and ice formations that can stress commercial roof systems. Not to worry though. CentiMark provides preventative services such as rooftop snow monitoring and snow removal to keep your building fully operational during the winter months.
✔ Hot, Humid Summers:
In addition to harsh winters, Iowa also experiences intense summer conditions as heat and humidity are often high. These conditions can accelerate roof wear and tear so to combat this, our roofers offer reflective coatings and energy-efficient materials. These roof options help reduce heat absorption while prolonging the life of your roof.
✔ Temperature Fluctuations:
The drastic fluctuations between hot and cold cause roofing materials to expand and contract. When materials aren’t flexible or installed properly, this can lead to cracks and splits. CentiMark will make proper recommendations and carry out expert installation techniques that take these factors into account.
