Roof Tear-offs vs. RAM Retrofits

If your car gets a flat tire, do you buy a new car? Of course not; you replace only the tire. Similarly, if part of your roof is leaking, damaged, or not insulating as it should, it makes sense to replace only that part of the roof that is damaged, rather than replace the entire roof.

Our interactive RAM Tear-off Calculator will show you how much a RAM Retrofit can save you versus a complete tear-off. It will also show you when a complete roof tear-off makes sense.

Retrofitted Roofs Cost Less

A retrofitted roof provides you with another cost saving. Because a retrofit takes less time than a complete tear-off, and repairs occur only over the affected area(s), the interruption to your normal business day is minimized. You still have some use of your facility while the retrofit occurs (depending on the size and location of the retrofit).

Whether you need a RAM Retrofit or a tear-off, Stephenson Corporation has the manpower, equipment, training, and experience to complete your roofing repair needs.
