Why You Shouldn’t Wait To Replace The Roof Of Your Apartment Building

Have you ever thought about replacing the roof of your apartment building? While it might seem like a daunting task, it is one of the best ways you can upgrade your building! If you begin to notice structural damage, leaks, or missing shingles – it is probably time that you start thinking about installing a new roof. Plus, a new roof will make your apartment a more attractive place to live! Keep reading to learn more about how replacing your commercial roof is a wise investment for your business.

Not Replacing Your Roof is Costing You Money

Roofs are the first line of defense against extreme weather. The roof of your building protects your tenants from everything, from the sweltering Texas sun to spring hailstorms. Eventually, your roof will require maintenance and repairs and those costs will add up over time. Also, you will spend a significant amount of time and energy finding and paying for contractors during which you could be spending your time and energy on other aspects of your business. It is inevitable that you will eventually have to replace your roof no matter how many repairs you make.

It Lowers Your Retention Rates

In the apartment industry, having high retention rates is one of the best things that you can do for your business. Tenants that love the place they live are less likely to move out, which means you keep earning a steady revenue for your business. Having persistent problems with your roof, such as leaks and water damage, will require constant and noisy repairs. No one wants to live in a construction zone! Replacing your old roof will help your tenants to live in a nice and safe environment.

You Could Higher the Cost of Rent

First impressions really do matter! An old and dirty roof is not attractive for people considering living in your building. Even worse, they might assume that you don’t properly maintain your buildings and worry about what they might experience if they moved there. Replacing your apartment building’s roof will make your complex seem more aesthetically pleasing. With upgrades that increase the look and safety of your complex, you’re able to increase how much you charge for rent.

Lowering the Value of Your Building

Eventually, there will come a time when you decide to sell your apartment building. Installing a new roof is an excellent way to help. How so? Well, when you sell in the future, having a newer roof will increase the value of your building!

About The Author

Founder. Builder. No Plan B.

For ten years, Scott worked jobs that looked stable on the surface—finance, insurance, corporate roles—but always felt like they belonged to someone else’s vision. He wasn’t building anything of his own, and the day-to-day offered little more than repetition.

After a personal and financial low point—including a Chapter 7 bankruptcy—he found himself starting over with almost nothing. A friend gave him a shot in roofing sales. Two small jobs in, someone wrote his commission on a napkin at a diner table. The number was more than he’d made in weeks. That’s when he saw what this industry could offer—not just income, but real ownership over your success.

From there, everything changed.

Scott built this company to give others the same shot he got. He doesn’t look for perfect résumés—he looks for people with drive, character, and something to prove. His goal is simple: train in weeks what took him a decade to learn, and create a path to success that’s real, not theoretical.

Today, he leads one of the fastest-growing roofing and solar teams in Texas—but he’s still walking jobs, coaching reps, and checking in with homeowners. Because no matter how big the company gets, the mission stays the same: do the job right, take care of your people, and never forget where you started.
