Deciding whether to install a new roof on an institutional or commercial facility is a complex decision, and it often centers on the potential future costs of maintaining the existing roof. To ensure maintenance and engineering managers have as much information as possible about the state of the roof in question and to make a smart repair-or-replace decision, they can perform a roof-condition assessment.
To succeed, however, the process involves setting parameters for the assessment. A recent article in Maintenance Solutions magazine covers this topic with suggestions for understanding assessment costs, scheduling and staffing, and reporting and acting on assessment results.
