Roof Scans


In roofing systems, moisture is the number one problem.  Infrared inspection of a roofing system is an excellent tool to quickly and accurately identify areas of wet insulation and thus pinpoint roof damage.  

 

During daylight hours the sun heats the roof. After sunset, the roof begins to cool, but areas of wet or moist insulation hold heat longer (higher thermal mass). During this time there is a window of opportunity when a skilled thermographer will be able to image these warmer areas. The results can be quite dramatic.

 

We then use a moisture meter to verify the problem areas, and these are marked with high-visibility paint.  A detailed report is also provided.

 

This service can help building owners save thousands of dollars. Instead of replacing the entire roof, our infrared inspection allows customers to identify and replace only the problem areas.
