Flat Roof Inspection Service
Building exterior
Start by identifying abnormalities, such as the state of the waterproofing of retaining walls. We analyze the state of the metal flashings to ensure they are in order and secure.
Building interior
Look for signs of possible problems, such as traces of water infiltration, paint peeling off, joints cracking, gypsum curling, or temperature instability and discomfort in the house.
Attic inspection
The attic can reveal traces of moisture or mould, as well as tarnished or compacted insulation. Pay special attention to the vents and the temperature of the attic.
Mechanical inspection
Discharge pipes are connected to appropriate air outlets. The attic sections are well-ventilated. They include intake and exhaust vents that promote air circulation.
Inspection of drains and fascia
Gutters and drains are properly cleaned. They are not clogged and enable water drainage. Furthermore, no wood is visible on the edge of the roof.
Roof inspection
Ensure the integrity of the vents, air outlets, fireplaces, accessories, and flashings. Make sure water does not infiltrate and that the sealants are in good condition.
Coating condition
Analyze the surface condition to ensure its waterproofing effectiveness by inspecting its overall appearance, joints, walls, and sealants. The roofing is your building’s first line of defence, so it is vital to ensure its complete integrity.
Structural inspection
Please review the soundness of the structure and the decking while cautiously walking on the roof in order to test its strength. In some cases, a slight movement of the decking can be acceptable.
Why have your flat roof inspected?
Scheduling regular flat roof inspections is essential to prevent costly damage caused by water infiltration and leaks. Flat roofs are more prone to waterproofing issues than sloped roofs because water can easily accumulate on the flat surface.
During a flat roof inspection in Montreal or Laval, our team of professional roofers thoroughly examines all elements of your roofing system, including the condition of the membrane, seams, drains, and vents. We also check for signs of wear and deterioration, such as cracks, blisters, and deformations.
Beyond preventing damage, a regular flat roof inspection can also extend the lifespan of your roof and protect your investment. Our roofers can identify potential issues early and recommend repairs or preventive maintenance to help you avoid expensive repairs in the long run.
