Commercial Roof Inspection Checklist

1. Visual Exterior Inspection

The first step in our commercial roof inspection checklist involves a thorough visual examination of the exterior of the roof. This includes:

  • Checking for any signs of damage such as cracks, punctures, or blistering
  • Examining the condition of the flashing, eavestroughs, and downspouts
  • Inspecting the condition of the chimney, vents, and skylights
  • Ensuring that gutters and drains are clear of debris

2. Interior Inspection

The next step focuses on conducting an interior inspection to identify any potential issues concealed beneath the surface. Key areas to assess include:

  • Checking for water stains or leaks on the ceiling
  • Examining insulation for signs of moisture or damage
  • Inspecting the attic for any signs of mold or mildew
  • Evaluating the condition of any roof hatches or access points

3. Roof Material Assessment

After completing the visual inspections, the next step involves a thorough examination of the roof materials. This includes:

  • Checking for loose, damaged, or missing shingles or tiles
  • Inspecting the condition of the membrane or waterproofing layer
  • Evaluating the integrity of any built-up roofing systems
  • Examining the condition of any exposed metal roofs

4. Roof Drainage Evaluation

Proper roof drainage is crucial in preventing water damage and ensuring the structural integrity of your commercial roof. In this step, we assess:

  • Inspecting the condition of downspouts, ensuring they are securely attached
  • Checking for any blockages or obstructions in the gutter system
  • Evaluating whether the roof slope facilitates efficient water runoff
  • Ensuring the functionality of any roof drains or scuppers

5. Roof Structural Inspection

The final step in our commercial roof inspection checklist focuses on the overall structural integrity of the roof. This involves:

  • Examining the condition of support beams and trusses
  • Assessing the integrity of any roof seals or joints
  • Checking for signs of sagging or uneven areas
  • Evaluating the load-bearing capacity of the roof
