Roof Covering
|
An inspection of accessible roof systems and surfaces is done.
Roof surfaces are observed from ground level or from a ladder. If abnormalities in the roof surface are noticed the inspector may walk on some roof surfaces to better evaluate it's condition. Common abnormalities the inspector looks for are: -Trees impinging on the roof, causing raking of the roof surface. -Flashing that has lifted or separated from the roof line which can cause water penetration. -Visable nail heads and staples that may be exposed to the weather which could cause them to rust and create leaks. -Gutters that are not properly secured or sloped and free of debris. -Wavy roof decking or other indications that the roof structure is not properly supported. -New roof layers over old roofs, such as wood shingles or too many layers of compostition shingles. -Any lifted, damaged or missing shingles will be noted. -Improper sloping of roofs that will not shed rain water. -Missing or improperly secured drip edges. |
