Roof Condition Reports

We use the highest quality roofing materials

At HIVE Consulting we provide detailed and comprehensive **Roof Condition Reports** for commercial flat roofing systems. These reports are designed to assess the current state of your roof, identify any existing or potential issues, and offer actionable recommendations for maintenance, repairs, or replacements. Our condition reports help property owners, facility managers, and stakeholders make informed decisions about roof care and long-term asset management.

Our Roof Condition Report Includes

Visual Inspection & Documentation

We begin with a thorough visual inspection of the roof’s surface and surrounding components. Our team inspects all accessible areas to identify signs of wear and tear, damage, or deterioration. We document all findings with detailed notes and photographs, focusing on:

Membrane wear (blistering, cracking, punctures)
Flashing integrity (e.g., damage, rust, or gaps)
Roof drainage systems (e.g., clogged drains, ponding water, downspouts)
Penetrations and transitions (e.g., HVAC units, vents, roof access points)
Evidence of biological growth (e.g., moss, algae, mold)

Infrared & Moisture Scanning (if applicable)

We employ advanced infrared thermography or moisture scanning to detect hidden issues that may not be visible to the naked eye. This technology helps identify:

Moisture infiltration within the roofing system or insulation
Areas of poor insulation performance
Heat loss or gain in the roof structure

Infrared scans allow us to pinpoint areas where water may be trapped under the roofing membrane, leading to potential leaks, rot, or mold growth.

Structural Assessment

The condition of the underlying roof structure is a critical aspect of any roof condition report. We assess the roof deck and supporting structures for signs of damage, sagging, or corrosion. This includes

Deck integrity (e.g., sagging, cracking, or signs of water damage)
Rafter or truss condition (e.g., deterioration, stress points)
Support beam assessments (e.g., rust, corrosion, structural misalignment)

Code Compliance & Safety Checks

We assess the roof’s compliance with current local building codes and safety standards. This includes reviewing:

Roof access and safety railings
Compliance with fire codes (fire-resistant materials, firebreaks)
Structural load-bearing capacity (especially for additional installations like solar panels, HVAC systems, etc.)
Compliance with energy efficiency regulations (e.g., reflective coatings, insulation standards)

Roof Lifespan Assessment & Remaining Service Life

Based on the inspection and findings, we provide an estimate of the roof’s **remaining service life**. Using data such as material age, current condition, and typical performance lifespans, we give a recommendation for how much longer the roof is likely to last before major repairs or replacement is required.

Recommendations & Action Plan

Our condition report includes detailed recommendations based on our findings. This may include:

Preventative Maintenance: Suggested maintenance tasks to extend the roof’s lifespan, such as cleaning, re-sealing seams, or minor repairs.

Repairs: Specific areas that require immediate attention (e.g., replacing damaged membrane sections, fixing leaking seams, clearing drains).

Replacement: If the roof is nearing the end of its service life, we provide a detailed plan for a full roof replacement, including material options and budget considerations.

Whether you are planning for routine maintenance, a roof restoration, or need an in-depth evaluation before a property transaction, our **Roof Condition Reports** offer peace of mind and a clear roadmap for maintaining a safe, efficient, and durable roofing system.
