Roofs may be both an organization’s most valuable and most vulnerable assets. Because roofs are exposed to weather 24/7/365 no roof system lasts forever, according to an article from Building Operating Management on the FacilitiesNet website.
Neglecting roofs can mean leaks, degradation or major damage, so roof inspections should address specific indicators or conditions.
Most issues can be traced back to one of three categories — design, materials, or workmanship — or a combination of the three.
Proactive roof evaluation will allow the facility manager to manage the roofing assets on a prioritized basis and to develop a successful long-range roofing program.
