Beyond the Inspection
The Proof-of-Value Roof Inspection gives you a clear picture of your roof's current condition. When deeper analysis is needed to support capital planning, asset strategy, or investment decisions, these advanced diagnostics give you the complete picture.
Infrared Thermographic Moisture Survey
Drone-mounted and handheld thermal cameras map trapped moisture beneath the membrane. Pinpoints problem areas invisible to visual inspection alone and provides a data layer for targeted repair planning.
Remaining Useful Life Estimate
Professional projection of serviceable years remaining based on system type, age, condition, and environmental exposure. Gives ownership a defensible timeline for replacement planning and budget allocation.
Capital Expenditure Forecasting
Multi-year CapEx projections tied to hold period, budget cycle, and asset strategy. Translates roof condition data into financial planning you can present to stakeholders, lenders, and investment committees.
Qualification Suitability Report (QSR)
Thermal imaging, core sampling, moisture scanning, and lab analysis combined into one comprehensive diagnostic. The QSR determines whether your roof qualifies for a recover or coating system versus full replacement. Depending on the results, property owners can see significant savings compared to a default tear-off.
