Documents used along the form

When conducting a roof inspection, several additional forms and documents may be beneficial for comprehensive record-keeping and ensuring all aspects of the roof's condition are properly addressed. Below is a list of common documents that are often used in conjunction with the Roof Inspection form.

  • Roof Maintenance Log: This document records all maintenance activities performed on the roof over time. It includes dates, types of work done, and the contractors involved. Keeping this log helps track the roof's upkeep and informs future inspections.
  • Warranty Documentation: If the roof is under warranty, this document outlines the terms and conditions of the warranty. It is crucial to have this on hand to verify coverage for repairs or replacements that may be needed.
  • Previous Inspection Reports: These reports provide historical context regarding the roof's condition. They can highlight recurring issues and inform inspectors about previous findings, making it easier to identify new problems.
  • Repair Work Orders: This form details any repair work that has been completed on the roof. It includes descriptions of the work, dates, and the contractors who performed it. This information is vital for understanding the roof's maintenance history.
