Professional Commercial Roof Inspections in Gilbert, AZ

A commercial roof inspection isn't just checking for visible damage. A thorough inspection documents the current condition of every component — membrane, seams, flashings, penetrations, drains, parapet cap, and substrate — using a systematic approach that produces an actionable written report you can use for budgeting, insurance claims, and maintenance planning.

When You Need a Commercial Roof Inspection

• Annual maintenance: Most manufacturers require documented annual inspections to maintain warranty coverage
• After severe weather: Post-monsoon and post-hail inspections document storm damage before it worsens
• Before purchasing a property: A roof inspection during due diligence can identify deferred maintenance and remaining roof life
• After a leak: Finding the source of a leak requires systematic inspection, not guesswork
• For insurance claims: We provide detailed written reports with photographs suitable for insurance documentation
• Capital planning: Knowing your roof's condition helps you plan for replacement on your terms, not reactively

What Our Inspection Covers

Visual Membrane Assessment

We walk the entire roof surface, not just accessible sections. We look for membrane shrinkage, cracking, alligatoring, blistering, punctures, and surface erosion. We check seam integrity at every lap and document areas that show deterioration.

Flashing and Termination Inspection

Parapet wall flashings, HVAC curb flashings, pipe boot flashings, and termination bars are checked for separation, corrosion, sealant failure, and proper overlap. This is where most commercial roof leaks originate and where we focus careful attention.

Drainage Assessment

We inspect every primary drain and overflow drain. We check drain collar condition, clamping ring integrity, and strainer condition. We assess whether the roof has adequate slope to drain or whether ponding conditions exist that need to be addressed.

Infrared Moisture Scanning

For buildings where moisture intrusion is suspected, we can conduct or arrange an infrared thermal scan. Infrared scans work on the principle that wet insulation holds heat longer than dry insulation — after sunset, the roof surface is scanned and wet areas show as thermal anomalies. This maps moisture without opening the roof and gives us precise locations for further investigation.

Written Report with Photographs

Every inspection produces a written report documenting what we found, with photographs keyed to a roof diagram. The report includes a condition rating, a priority list of recommended actions, and an estimated remaining service life. This is a document you can put in your property files and hand to a lender, insurer, or buyer.
