A physical assessment of your roof’s condition, documented in a written report with photographs, covering the whole system from drains to parapets.
No inspection ends with a verbal opinion on the way off the roof. You get findings in writing, with photos to back them up.
$2M general liability insurance
An inspection looks at the roof as a complete system.
Send the building address and a photo of what you’re seeing, and we’ll tell you what an inspection would involve.
An inspection starts with a full walk of the roof, not a look from the access hatch. Every seam, penetration and drainage point gets checked by hand, and anything that isn’t visible from the surface, softness underfoot, a section that flexes under weight, gets noted as a possible sign of what’s happening underneath the membrane.
Where a finding needs more than a visual survey to confirm, a moisture reading or further testing, we say so directly in the report rather than guessing at what’s underneath. That’s the honest boundary of a visual inspection, and it’s stated plainly rather than implied away.
Every inspection closes with documentation you can act on, not a summary you have to take on trust.
A record of the roof’s condition at the time of inspection, organized by area rather than as a single paragraph of notes.
Every issue documented on the roof, not described from memory afterward.
Each finding tied to a reason, not a recommendation handed over without the reasoning behind it.
What needs attention first versus what can sit on a longer timeline, so a limited budget goes where it matters most.
A report you can hand to a board, a lender, an insurer or your own facilities team, and one that holds up to being read by someone who wasn’t on the roof.
A commercial property owner requested a roof inspection after recurring water stains appeared on an upper-floor ceiling. The roof had a modified bitumen membrane with several older repair areas.
The inspection found deteriorated flashing at a roof penetration, open areas in previous repairs, and debris restricting one of the roof drains. Photographs documented each finding, while the written report separated items requiring repair from conditions that could remain on the maintenance schedule.
The owner received a documented condition assessment they could use to plan the next round of roof work.
An inspection’s job is to point you toward the right next step.
An inspection is a one-time assessment that produces a report. It isn’t a recurring visit, and it isn’t a repair carried out on the spot. If your roof needs regular attention on a schedule, that’s ongoing maintenance. If something is actively failing and needs fixing now, that’s repair, and an emergency leak gets routed to 24/7 emergency roof repair instead.
Keeping these separate is what keeps the report honest: it tells you what the roof needs.

A full walk of the roof surface, seams, flashing, drains and scuppers, penetrations, and the roof edge, checked for damage, wear and drainage problems. Where accessible, we also check for interior evidence like ceiling staining that connects back to a roof-level cause.
A written condition report with photographs of each finding, organized by area, with our recommendations and a rough priority order. It’s built to be read by someone who wasn’t on the roof, a board, a lender, or your own team.
No. An inspection is a one-time assessment with a report. Maintenance is a recurring service. Many owners use an inspection to decide whether ongoing maintenance makes sense for their roof.
Yes. We carry $2 million in general liability coverage, and our crews follow OSHA safety standards, which matters directly here since inspection means walking a roof whose condition isn’t yet known.
