Roof systems, unlike other components of a building are susceptible to severe weathering, expansion, contraction and human abuse.

 

It is not uncommon for some leakage to develop within a very short period after the original roof application as a result of these causes, thus requiring continual inspection and maintenance. In addition, exposure to unusual pollutants, strong winds, hail and long continued rains, may result in additional roof system degradation.

​

As a result, building owners and property managers should routinely implement a scheduled roof inspection and maintenance program.
