According to the University of Pennsylvania, the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season will produce between 27 and 39 storms, averaging out to a predicted 33 storms.

Earthquakes are natural phenomena that, while awe-inspiring, can also pose serious risks to buildings, especially industrial and commercial structures. One of the most vulnerable parts of a building during an earthquake is its roof. Lets consider the impact earthquakes can have on industrial and commercial roofs and explore how TeamCraft Roofing can provide solutions to mitigate these risks.

Cold storage roofs represent extreme conditions that require special considerations for proper moisture management.

What are cold storage buildings?

Cold storage buildings are processing or holding facilities maintained at reduced interior temperatures. These buildings are broadly classified as large space coolers (>32ºF) or freezers (<32ºF). Examples of cold storage buildings include food processing plants, holding facilities for refrigerated or frozen foods, horticultural buildings, and warehousing for pharmaceutical products.  

Commercial roofing systems are complex assemblies, necessitating an in-depth understanding to maintain their integrity and longevity. Core cuts are an essential diagnostic method for commercial roofers to perform detailed analysis on each layer of the roof — especially those not visible on the surface. In this article, we'll discuss core cuts in detail, their significance, and what they can reveal about your commercial roofing system.

Many of our customers understand that in order to repair or renovate a roof, access to that elevated work surface needs to be conducted safely. How are your contractors safely gaining access to your roof?  If you have other elevated work areas on your building, do you separately consider how are those areas being accessed? It might come as a surprise,  but there are many different things a building owner can do to increase safety at their facilities -- just by addressing this one aspect of safe access.

In the long history of our planet, few natural phenomena have changed the landscape or caused more tragedy than water. Life couldn’t exist without it but the destruction it can create is boundless.

Water is your building’s worse enemy. When it freezes it can cause pipes to burst, lift asphalt or concrete in parking lots, and deteriorate building components…..

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), together with the National Weather Service (NWS), have released their annual Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook.

They are anticipating that we will have a “near-normal” hurricane season, with an estimated 12 - 17 named storms. Of those storms, 5 - 9 are expected to become hurricanes, and 1 - 4 of them could become major hurricanes.

The tumultuous global environment kicked off two years ago with the COVID-19 pandemic in March of 2020, and has been exacerbated by the armed conflict and humanitarian crisis in Ukraine.  Nobody questions that the past two years have been the most tumultuous in recent history. Between labor shortages and supply chain disruptions, all contractors are finding that it is harder than ever to meet the customers’ needs.

Our Safety 101 blog series continues with an edition on cold weather roofing safety. TeamCraft understands that your commercial roofing needs do not stop when the winter months roll around. Safety is paramount to all roofing operations, but especially so when dealing with cold weather. The first and most obvious step to being safe on a roof in the winter is to be aware of your weather.

Welcome back to safety 101 with TeamCraft Roofing and Wryker Construction Supply*! This week we are diving into the variety of PPE available to construction professionals that offer protection to the head. “Head protection” is a loaded statement that encompasses a wide variety of PPE. Our article focuses on what we believe are the most vital forms of head protection, but you should always consult with a safety professional if you have any questions or concerns about your PPE. The information in this article is not meant to be a replacement to the safety labels on your PPE; the label’s warning information should always supersede what you read online.

Teamcraft began as a small commercial roofing firm in Hickory, North Carolina.

One roofing material with an incredibly long history that is still widely available today for commercial and residential building use is metal. Metal has become an increasingly popular roofing material over the past twenty years with the rise in demand for prefabricated building materials, but it has been utilized in commercial roofing since at least the 1700s. In this post we will take a detailed look at the history, application, cost, benefits and problems associated with metal roofs.

In this Meet the Team, we interview two of our HR employees: Stephanie and Brandee.

The first step to deciding which glove is correct for your work is to evaluate the hazards in your workplace. The following questions can help to evaluate the risks to your hands:

What type of equipment will I be handling? Could it cut me with a blade?

Will I be in contact with any liquids or other hazardous materials?

Do I need perfect dexterity to be able to perform the job?

Traditionally inspections begin by walking the roof to visually inspect the site, and then the core samples are taken.  TeamCraft takes a unique approach as a technological leader in the roofing industry. The first step in virtually every roofing inspection we perform is to take drone footage of the potential construction site.  Our roofing consultants are licensed drone pilots…
