Additional Services Beyond Traditional Roofing

At Cran-Marsh Inc., we understand that maintaining your commercial property requires more than just standard roofing solutions. Our comprehensive range of exterior remodeling services ensures your building envelope remains protected from every angle. With over 50 years in business, we’ve expanded our capabilities to meet the evolving needs of property owners throughout New England, including Cape Cod and the Islands.

Our team has developed expertise in specialized areas that complement our core roofing services. From advanced waterproofing systems to custom metal fabrication, we provide solutions that enhance the longevity and performance of your building. These services integrate seamlessly with our roofing work, creating a cohesive approach to property protection that saves you time and reduces coordination challenges between multiple contractors.

Comprehensive Gutter Systems and Drainage Solutions

Proper water management extends far beyond the roof surface itself. We install and maintain commercial-grade gutter systems designed to handle the heavy rainfall common in New England. Our approach includes calculating proper sizing based on roof square footage, pitch, and local precipitation data to ensure optimal water flow and prevent overflow during storm events.

We also provide complete drainage solutions that protect your foundation and landscaping. This includes downspout extensions, underground drainage systems, and strategic grading recommendations. By addressing water management comprehensively, we help prevent costly damage to your building’s foundation, walkways, and parking areas. Our family-owned and operated business takes pride in designing systems that protect your entire property investment.

Skylight Installation and Solar Tube Systems

Natural lighting transforms commercial spaces while reducing energy costs. As a Velux 5 Star Skylight Specialist, we bring exceptional expertise to every skylight project. We assess your building’s structure, insulation requirements, and sun exposure patterns to recommend optimal placement and sizing. Our installation process includes proper flashing techniques, thermal barriers, and condensation management systems that prevent common skylight problems.

Solar tube systems offer another innovative lighting solution, particularly effective for interior spaces without direct roof access. These systems capture sunlight through rooftop domes and channel it through highly reflective tubes to illuminate bathrooms, hallways, and storage areas. We handle the complete installation process, including cutting through multiple ceiling levels, ensuring proper insulation around the tubes, and installing diffusers that distribute light evenly throughout your space.

Specialized Coating Applications

Protective coatings extend the life of various building components while improving energy efficiency. We apply specialized coatings that reflect solar radiation, reducing cooling costs by up to 30% during summer months. These elastomeric and silicone-based products create seamless membranes that bridge minor cracks and prevent water infiltration.

Our coating services include:

• Reflective roof coatings that meet ENERGY STAR requirements
• Waterproofing applications for parapet walls and equipment curbs
• Anti-corrosion treatments for metal components and fasteners

Preventive Maintenance Programs

Regular maintenance prevents minor issues from becoming major expenses. We develop customized maintenance programs based on your roof type, age, and specific vulnerabilities. Our certified technicians conduct thorough inspections, documenting conditions with detailed reports and photographs. This proactive approach typically extends roof life by 25-40% compared to reactive repair strategies.

Our complete maintenance services encompass debris removal, sealant replacement, fastener tightening, and drainage cleaning. We maintain detailed records of all work performed, helping you track your roof’s condition over time and plan for capital improvements. With our GAF Master Elite Certification and CertainTeed Master Shingle Applicator credentials, we understand manufacturer requirements for maintaining warranty coverage.

Custom Sheet Metal Fabrication

Many roofing projects require custom metalwork that standard products cannot address. Our skilled craftsmen fabricate custom flashings, coping caps, and transition pieces in our shop. We work with various metals including aluminum, copper, and galvanized steel, matching existing materials or upgrading to more durable options. This capability allows us to solve unique challenges while maintaining aesthetic consistency across your building.

Whether you need specialized solutions for equipment penetrations, architectural details, or weather protection, our additional services complement our roofing expertise perfectly. Being big enough to handle complex projects yet small enough to provide personalized attention, Cran-Marsh Inc. delivers comprehensive building envelope solutions that protect your investment for decades to come.
