Inspection Focus Parameters
- 01Membranes, sheets, laps and fixings
- 02Flashings, penetrations and drainage
- 03Plant zones and access paths
- 04Visible moisture, corrosion and storm damage indicators
Target Deliverables
- 01Annotated roof plan or defect locations
- 02Photographic condition record
- 03Thermal anomaly record where suitable
- 04Prioritised maintenance recommendations
Define the roof system and boundaries
A scope should identify roof construction, accessible areas, plant zones and whether internal ceiling or underside observations are available. That context prevents external observations being overstated.
Key Considerations
- Record roof type and approximate extent
- List known leaks or prior repairs
- Identify inaccessible or concealed areas
Use thermal data with context
Thermal capture can identify patterns that warrant further investigation, but conditions at the time of capture and the roof build-up matter. Report anomalies as evidence, not automatic diagnoses.
Key Considerations
- Plan a suitable capture window
- Correlate thermal and visual observations
- State limitations and follow-up needs
