Roof Thermography

Infrared inspection is a valuable technique for detecting and finding roof leaks before they grow into expensive problems, especially in flat roofs. We are experienced in surveying all types of flat roof coverings ranging from traditional tar and gravel to modern single ply coverings of EPDM or TPO. Flat roofs should be inspected periodically for leaks and moisture intrusion at seams and penetrations. We perform roof surveys for roofing companies, building owners and maintenance staffs to help them detect failures before they cause expensive water damage to tenants or building structures.

Weather and temperature conditions must be considered when using infrared to locate roof leaks. We are experts in the right conditions for detecting moisture under roof membranes. Whether you want to know the extent of an active roof leak, suspect your roof covering, or just want some peace of mind prior to the expiration of a roof warranty, we can help. Roof surveys are very affordable compared to the cost of water damage and repair of an undetected leak. Call us for a quote on your particular building.
