Roof Maintenance Details
• Assessment of the roof’s condition, noting loose or missing roofing materials.
• Note visible damage to the roof surface, including cracks, punctures, and tears.
• Inspect flashings and roof transitions.
• Inspect the gutters and downspouts and check for blockage of proper drainage.
• Identify ponding or standing water areas.
• Inspect HVAC and rooftop equipment supports.
• Note any biological growth, including lichen or moss.
• Identify roof modifications, equipment additions, and roof penetrations.
• Look for signs of vandalism or accidental trade damage.
• Report non-conforming conditions of the roof and provide recommendations for corrective action.
“The most important reason for establishing a roof maintenance program is to protect the captial investment of a new roof. Proper roof maintenance will not only add years to the life of a roof, it will also uncover problems before a roof leak creates mold and damages the interior of the building.” Center for the Advancement of Roof Excellence
Why Do You Need Our Roof Maintenance Program?
The role of the roof as a watertight membrane offering protection from the elements can be compromised in many ways that are only evident to a professional roof inspector. If not detected, what would seem like a minor roof injury, such as an improper roof penetration by a solar installer, can lead to a costly water intrusion emergency.
Numerous research studies suggest that a formal ongoing roof maintenance program may significantly increase a roof’s life. Just as a car requires maintenance to prevent costly repairs or failure if neglected, so does a roof. Increasingly, most manufacturer roof warranties require scheduled maintenance.
It is important to note that many roof manufacturers require roof maintenance as terms of the warranty.
