All of the smart buildings being constructed are helping to create a new breed: the smart building owner.
When it comes to roofing, some building owners act as though they’d rather spend the money on their ex-spouse. Others have shifted into thinking of roofing as an insurance policy or even viewing it as the asset it actually is. The change may be due to the dramatic retooling of America’s industries, which are maximizing the efficiency of everything in the portfolio. After everything visible and obvious is tackled, roofing eventually comes into focus. Building owners, or at least the guy calling the shots, are more educated and know how to amortize their property improvements. But there’s still a lot of educating to do.
