We are commercial roofing and roof systems specialists.
What is an Independent Roof Specialist and how can one benefit me?
This should be changed to “An independent roof specialist is your eyes and ears. They are an expert in roofing who is focused on delivering your goals and building value throughout the many aspects of property management. Independent means that they are not tied to any contractor or manufacturer. Because of this, they provide unbiased inspection, roofing due diligence, specifications, planning, and budgets to help you get the very best value out of your roof system. This means you get better information, reduce risk, save time, save money, and build and capture value in your roofing decisions, projects, acquisitions, and dispositions.
I get free inspections from Roofers and Manufacturers, why should I pay for one?
Our clients approach us because they have found that they get different information from different sources, and they are not sure if the report is accurate based on their needs. There are many great roofers and manufacturers whom we respect, but all of them have a system or service that they do best. That represents a bias — it influences how they see the roof and your situation, which results in wildly different proposed budgets and approaches, resulting in risk, lost time, and unpredicted costs.
When do I use a roof specialist?
Many of our clients begin working with us because they need an unbiased report on their roofs condition and accurate budgeting. They see that the cost of an inspection is a small fraction of the costs to replace a roof, or what they could lose as a buyer if they don’t have accurate information. That is the starting point, but many quickly find that having an unbiased, expert opinion and access to vetted, quality contractors for all roof systems components can benefit them throughout the life of the building. By serving through the whole lifecycle, we help clients save millions of dollars on a large building.
