Evaluation and Testing
RoofTEC technicians use a number of diagnostic tools to assess the condition of roofing. Services, from periodic maintenance inspections to forensic investigation, help you get the answers you need. What is the condition of the roof? Should it be repaired or replaced? How much might that cost?
Infrared Testing
Infrared testing is valuable tool in solving problems with leaks, energy loss, deck rusting/rotting & structural deterioration, organic growth ("mold"). Infrared shows how much roof insulation is wet and where wet is located, to help you make the right financial decision, and create the lowest possible carbon footprint. I/R is a highly cost effective diagnostic tool used by professional roof consultants in a number of situations including analysis of existing roofs for accurate recommendations and budgets, quality control during roof installation, and as a preventive maintenance tool to extend the service life of your roofs.
Planning – Design
Most owners and even Architects and Engineers, are not knowledgeable of roof material options and installation standards. They are not prepared for the technicalities and mess associated with a major re-roof project. Your RoofTEC consultant will skillfully guide you through the procurement process.
Improper installation and inappropriate material selection far exceed product failure as the leading causes of roof failures. The best means of controlling roof failures is the combination of quality control (through design), and quality assurance (through installation monitoring).
Your RoofTEC consultant specializes in material evaluation. From conventional clay tile and built-up roofs, to state-of-the-art thermoplastics and cementitious shingles, we have researched the manufacturers and analyzed new and aged installations. We have evaluated pros and cons, performance, and cost. We know what works - and where. We have seen what does not work.
The cost of your roof will decrease as competition for materials and labor increases. Professional roof consultants serve the best interests of the building owner. Your professional roof consultant does not have a financial relationship with roof material manufacturers or contractors. You hire a contractor to install roofing and your consultant works for you, never for the contractor.
Bid documents set standards for your project. Professionally prepared technical specifications are planned down to the final details, to meet the specific needs of your roofs. This gives you not only "apples to apples" bids, but clear performance standards for the installation.
With RoofTEC on your team, you get the right roof for the right price. RoofTEC specifications promote competition among manufacturers, distributors, and contractors. Competitive system and competitive labor are held to a higher standard by quality control design documents and installation quality assurance monitoring.
Construction Phase Services
Communication is key – your consultant works actively with all parties involved in the project: the Owner, Contractor, Manufacturer, and related parties, to overcome obstacles, anticipate needs, and achieve desired outcome.
Quality Assurance Monitoring
When a RoofTEC monitor is in place, the owner has an on-site advocate. Design standards are properly and professionally interpreted as questions arise, to help ensure that the installed roof meets contract requirements. Problems can be resolved during construction, before changes are cost-prohibitive. In short, a roof worker is not left to make critical design decisions. RoofTEC's quality assurance monitors are educated and experienced. Problems are resolved expeditiously are familiar with Owner's needs, design professionals' intentions, manufacturer's and industry standards, and the logistics that contractors confront daily. Also, they work in the related technologies of moisture detection and roofing forensics. Knowing why roofs fail helps our monitors identify issues and promote quality during construction.
