Roof Maintenance Agreements
The cheapest roof you will ever own is the one you already have.
A commercial roof that gets inspected twice a year and has its drains cleared routinely will commonly outlast an identical neglected roof by years. A maintenance agreement is not a service plan we are upselling — it is the thing that defers a six-figure capital project.

Why this exists
Deferred maintenance is not saving money. It is financing a roof at a terrible rate.
Roofs almost never fail all at once. They fail at a detail — a clogged drain, a lifted flashing, an uncaulked pitch pan — and then water sits in the insulation for two or three years quietly destroying the deck and the R-value. By the time it shows up on a ceiling tile, a repair that would have cost a few hundred dollars has become a section replacement.
Nearly every manufacturer warranty also requires documented maintenance. Owners regularly discover, at the exact moment they need to file a claim, that nobody kept the record and the coverage is unenforceable.
- Extends the service life of the roof you already paid for
- Keeps the manufacturer warranty enforceable
- Turns surprise repairs into a predictable annual line item
- Produces the pre-storm condition record insurers ask for
- Gives you a defensible capital replacement year and budget
Saying the obvious part out loud
Yes — a maintenance agreement also means we are the contractor already on your roof when it finally does need replacing. We would rather earn that by keeping records and telling you the truth for ten years than by knocking on your door after a hailstorm.
Multi-building portfolios
If you manage a campus, a district, a retail portfolio, or an industrial site with several roofs, the agreement covers all of them on one schedule with one report per building — ranked by urgency, so you know which roof gets the money this year.
What is included
The scope of a Badger roof maintenance agreement
Semi-annual roof inspection
Spring and fall walks of the full roof area — field membrane, every seam and termination, every penetration, curbs, drains, and edge metal — documented with dated photographs located on a roof plan.
Drain & waterway clearing
Drains, strainers, scuppers, overflows, gutters, and downspouts cleared of debris. Blocked drainage is the most common cause of premature commercial roof failure, and it is entirely preventable.
Minor repairs included
Sealant renewal at terminations and pitch pans, re-securing loose fasteners and edge metal, small punctures, and re-caulking of counterflashing — done on the visit, not quoted as a change order afterward.
Debris & damage removal
Removal of tree limbs, abandoned equipment, dead vegetation, and construction debris left behind by other trades, all of which puncture membranes and hold water.
Rooftop trade damage check
Inspection of work other contractors have done on your roof since our last visit — new conduit, new units, new penetrations — which is where a surprising share of new leaks originate.
Warranty compliance record
Documented maintenance is a condition of nearly every manufacturer roof warranty. The agreement produces the record that keeps that warranty enforceable if you ever need to make a claim.
Post-storm inspection
A priority walk after a significant hail or high-wind event, with the documentation an insurer will require — and, just as importantly, a dated pre-storm condition record to compare it against.
Annual roof asset report
One document per building: current condition, work performed, remaining estimated service life, and a recommended capital replacement year with a budget range. This is the deliverable that makes capital planning possible.
Agreement levels
Three levels, priced by roof area and complexity
Pricing depends on square footage, roof height and access, the number of penetrations and rooftop units, and how many buildings are on the schedule. Every agreement is quoted after a baseline assessment, because pricing maintenance on a roof nobody has inspected is guesswork.
Essential
One inspection per year, plus drain clearing and a written photo report, with minor sealant repairs included. Suited to newer roofs still inside a manufacturer warranty period with straightforward drainage.
Standard
Two inspections per year, spring and fall, plus drain and waterway clearing, included minor repairs, debris removal, rooftop trade damage checks, and the annual roof asset report. The right level for most commercial buildings.
Comprehensive
Two scheduled inspections plus post-storm response, priority scheduling on emergency calls, a moisture survey on a set interval, and a multi-building capital forecast. Built for portfolios, campuses, and districts.

It starts with a baseline assessment and a written report. From there the maintenance agreement gets priced off real conditions instead of a square-foot guess.
