Frequently Asked Questions

A roofing failure evaluation involves the systematic examination of roofing systems to identify the causes of failures, assess the extent of damage, and recommend corrective actions that support the long-term longevity and stability of roofing systems. This process involves identifying the root causes of roofing failures by evaluating signs of damage, such as weather, poor installation, or material defects, to prevent similar issues in the future.

The process of roof failure analysis followed at Prema Consulting Group includes:

  • Site Visit: We begin with a comprehensive onsite roof evaluation to document the current condition and determine the extent of the damage and gather essential data. This visit includes documentation of the roof, attic and any other affected interior spaces as well as interviews with property owners to capture damage details and background information.
  • Weather Impact Analysis: We analyze weather conditions on the roofing system by using available data to assess the impact of wind, rain, and hail before and after the reported damage. This analysis helps us correlate weather events with observed damage and is a critical component of our investigation
  • Comprehensive Report Generation: After we complete our assessments, we compile detailed reports that summarize the findings from each stage of the roof damage assessments. These reports provide clear, actionable insights and recommendations tailored to addressing the clients' project-specific requirements.

Prema Consulting Group offers independent, scientifically-based roofing assessments that go beyond typical contractor evaluations. Our licensed engineers assess both roofing materials and structural components and provide detailed reports to guide informed decisions on repairs and replacements. These services apply to milestone inspections and condition assessments as well as forensic investigations.
