Roofmaster Roof Surveys & Investigations
Roofmaster's roof survey and investigation service is designed to protect and enhance building performance. When it comes to ensuring the longevity and performance of your roof, proactive maintenance and inspections are key. Comprehensive assessments of your roof's condition can identify potential issues and schedule maintenance repairs, before they escalate into costly problems. From electronic leak detection to aerial surveys, we utilise advanced techniques and technologies to deliver accurate and actionable insights tailored to your needs, including:
- Dry Electronic Leak Detection
- Wet Electronic Leak Detection
- Ariel Surveying
- Intrusive and non-intrusive surveys
- Roof fixing integrity testing – vacuum testing
Wet & Dry Leak Detection
Detecting leaks in roofing systems is essential for preventing water damage and maintaining structural integrity. Our dry electronic leak detection method utilises specialised equipment to identify leaks without the need for water testing. By analyzing changes in electrical conductivity, we pinpoint the exact location of leaks, allowing for precise repairs and maintenance.
In addition to dry electronic leak detection, we also offer wet electronic leak detection services for more challenging scenarios. This method involves the introduction of a conductive solution onto the roof surface, which is then monitored using specialised equipment to detect leaks. Wet electronic leak detection is particularly effective for detecting leaks in membrane roofs and areas with complex roof structures.
Aerial Roof Surveys Using Drone Technology
Incorporating cutting-edge drone technology into our aerial surveying services offers numerous advantages for our clients. Drones allow us to access and inspect areas of the roof that may be difficult or dangerous to reach using traditional methods. With their agility and manoeuvrability, drones can navigate around obstacles and provide detailed views of the entire roof surface, including areas that are inaccessible from ground level.
Aerial surveys conducted with drones enables us to minimise safety risks for personnel by reducing the need for manual inspections at height, and identify potential issues with greater accuracy and efficiency, leading to more informed decision-making and proactive maintenance planning. Drone technology helps us deliver thorough and reliable assessments of your roof's condition, helping you maximize its longevity and performance.
Intrusive, Non-Intrusive and Vacuum Testing
Depending on the nature of your roofing system and the level of detail required, we offer both intrusive and non-intrusive surveying options. Intrusive surveys involve physical examination and testing of roof components, while non-intrusive surveys utilise techniques such as infrared thermography or moisture meters to assess roof conditions without causing disruption to the building's occupants.
Roof fixing integrity testing (vacuum Testing) ensuring the integrity of roof fixings is essential for maintaining the stability and performance of your roofing system. Our vacuum testing method provides a non-destructive way to assess the strength and reliability of roof fixings. By applying controlled suction to the roof surface, we can evaluate the resistance of fixings to uplift forces, identifying any areas of concern that require attention.
- Pre-manufactured units, they are designed for easy installation into the roof structure.
- They come in standardised sizes and configurations, offering consistency and uniformity.
- They may not include insulation, or the same level of thermal performance as FAIRS.
- Installation involves inserting pre-made units into and aligned with the roof surface.
- They offer a clean and uniform appearance, with consistent dimensions and specifications.
- Inline rooflights are suitable where standard sizes and quick installation are required.
