Roof and Pavement Condition Assessments

The cold temperatures, snow, and freezing rain of the winter season can negatively impact properties, potentially leading to costly damage and safety hazards. As spring approaches, it is important for building owners and facilities managers to take proactive measures and schedule their condition assessments of roof and pavement systems to better understand the life expectancy of their properties, address immediate concerns, optimize performance, and expedite remediation strategies.

When conducted by Rimkus’ experienced team of roof and pavement engineers, condition assessments can help clients protect their customers and employees, save money, as well as improve and maintain the integrity of their properties.

A roof condition assessment helps to better understand the life expectancy of a roof, optimize building performance and is the most effective way to avoid costly surprises. It is difficult to stop a roof leak when it is raining or when the roof is covered with snow. Proactive roof assessments are the best way to prevent unexpected damage. Similarly, after a storm event, a prompt assessment will help address immediate concerns and expedite a remediation strategy.
