Potential Mold Growth:

Wet roofing provides an excellent environment for mold, supplying the nutrients, moisture, and optimum temperatures that molds need to thrive. Water penetrating the roof can enter the structure and create hidden mold problems in other building components, including floors, ceilings and walls.

Moisture damage and mold are progressive conditions, so the sooner problem areas are identified and mitigated, the greater your opportunity to reduce losses and potential liability.

Our infrared roof surveys target the sites of moisture infiltration to help you stop mold in its tracks. They also document your efforts to deal with existing and potential mold problems. Periodic infrared scanning should be included in all mold identification and control programs.

Saving big money on roof repairs, retro-fits and replacements is just one of many ways building owners improve their return on investment with our infrared roof scans.
 
Save Money on Roof Repair and Maintenance: Infrared testing finds small problems before they become bigger and more costly. By targeting the problem areas, infrared surveys help you make the most effective use of limited funds. A professional roof scan can also provide valuable assistance in locating roof leaks.
 
Acceptance Testing & Quality Control: For quality control purposes, many consultants, architects and owners are specifying post-construction infrared testing to confirm the quality of materials and workmanship. The objective, hard-copy documentation provided by our in-depth inspection reports helps reduce litigation and encourages positive solutions to any disputes.
 
Reduce Energy Costs: Moisture in the roof’s insulation significantly reduces its insulating properties (R-value). This means higher heating costs during the winter and higher cooling costs in the summer. As energy costs continue to climb, more building owners are using our roof surveys to assess their buildings’ thermal performance.
Reduce Cost of Asbestos Removal: If you’re facing repairs on a roof made with asbestos-containing materials, our infrared survey can help you greatly reduce the cost of asbestos removal and disposal by locating and removing only the water-damaged sections of the roof.
 
Improved Budget Controls and Planning: Building owners and facilities managers use the information from our inspections to make better long-term plans for roof maintenance, repair, and investment. They can help prioritize multiple roof areas for accurate and economical long-term planning. Understanding your roof’s current condition and its expected lifespan will help prevent nasty, and expensive, surprises down the road.

Due Diligence: When purchasing a property, its essential to have an accurate evaluation of the roof, one of the most critical and expensive building components. Our unbiased infrared surveys can help document the true condition and value of the roof. Due diligence surveys can alert the prospective buyer to the potential for hidden mold-related problems in the roof or other structural components. And having accurate information about water damage can protect your interests during negotiations.
