Visual Inspection and Evaluation
ATLroof.com's experienced staff can evaluate your existing building systems, review plans and specifications, propose corrective measures, and recommend possible building systems and alternatives.
Advantages of our Visual Inspection and Evaluation are:- Identify roofing types, siding types,insulation types and values, and deck types.
- Pinpoint problem roofing and siding areas.
- Provide recommendations for corrective measures.
- Offer construction and repair options.
- Provide budget projections and cost estimates for roofing, repairs, and preventive maintenance.
Moisture Survey
Because undetected wet insulation is the primary cause of premature roof and building failures, it is imperative to remove all trapped moisture within the roof system. Wet insulation stores solar energy from the sun, while dry insulation resists the penetration of solar energy. Our infrared scanner detects these temperature variations so that we can identify which areas of your roofing system are increasing your heating and cooling costs.
Features of the Infrared Roof Moisture Survey include:- Periodically and accurately survey a large roof area at a relatively inexpensive cost.
- Pinpoint problem roof areas before they become costly and unmanageable.
- Avoid costly roof removal and disposal costs by removing only the problem roof areas.
- Reduce heating and cooling bills by removing all wet, heat-conducting roof insulations.
- Secure accurate quotes for repair and replacement of problem roof areas only.
Architectural Sheet Metal
Ordering sheet metal fittings for your roofing system can take time, and time can cost you money. That's why ATLroof.com has the capabilities of fabricating standard and custom sheet metal fabrications.
Some of the sheet metal pieces that we can fabricate include:- Copings
- Counter flashings
- Edge trims
- Expansion joints
- Fascia
- Gravel stops
- Soffits
- Standing seam metal roof systems
- Scuppers with conductor boxes
- Gutters and down spouts
- Wall panels
- Made-to-order metal fittings and trims
Roof Maintenance Program (RMP)
ATLroof.com's Roof Maintenance Program (RMP) offers a unique approach to preventing costly roofing repairs, while also assisting your company to improve its cash flow. RMP uses a blend of data collection and organization, scheduled moisture surveys, and highly-trained personnel to provide the maximum roof system integrity at a minimum of cost.
RMP begins with data collection and visual inspections. During the roof inspection, we'll examine
- Decking.
- Vapor barriers.
- Insulation.
- Roof membranes and flashings.
We'll also look at your warranties, previous surveys, repair and maintenance history, and other documentation from other contractors, manufacturers, and architects that have worked on your roof systems. Then we'll place the data in one hard cover manual, so you can easily review your complete roof system history.
We will also provide you with:- Replacement and repair values.
- Action items.
- Recommendations.
- Capital and expense budgets.
- Warranties.
- A list of membrane defects.
- Roof top details.
- Your moisture survey.
- An inspection history.
- A history of the work completed on your roof system.
- Photographs and roof plan drawings.
How does the ATLroof.com RMP save money?
Your roofing system represents a large capital investment. It is the asset that protects your other assets. As such, you want to keep your roof maintained as well as is possible. Our RMP can realize savings for your company by:
- Extending the life of your roofing assets.
- Reducing annual service life costs of your roofing system.
- Reducing the entire service life costs of your roofing system.
- Reducing shutdown times during repairs due to shorter or eliminated repair periods.
- Reducing other-than-roof asset damage because roofing systems are repaired more quickly.
- Providing better protection than a typical warranty.
The entire process can be streamlined with reduced cycle time by being:
- Proactive rather than reactive.
- Detecting problems in their early stages.
Another advantage of establishing an effective Roof Maintenance Program is the process becomes a turn-key operation. In order for an RMP to work effectively, there must be a long-term commitment to the process. Three key aspects include:
- Gathering accurate information.
- Organizing the information.
- Establishing a preventive maintenance schedule.
Because of the cost savings and advantages associated with our Roof Maintenance Program, you can't afford not to use it. On the other hand, doing nothing could end up costing you everything.
Preventive maintenance helps to improve cash flow when the following items are taken into account:
- Deck/insulation deterioration.
- Lost energy due to wet insulation.
- Higher repair costs when damaged areas aren't quickly identified.
- Shutdown time during larger roof system repairs.
- Interior damage due to failed roof systems.
- Complete tear-off costs vs. a RAM Retrofit.
- Interest expense and the time-value of money.

Roof Tear-offs vs. RMP Retrofits
If your car gets a flat tire, do you buy a new car? Of course not; you replace only the tire. Similarly, if part of your roof is leaking, damaged, or not insulating as it should, it makes sense to replace only that part of the roof that is damaged, rather than replace the entire roof.
A retrofitted roof provides you with another cost saving. Because a retrofit takes less time than a complete tear-off, and repairs occur only over the affected area(s), the interruption to your normal business day is minimized. You still have some use of your facility while the retrofit occurs (depending on the size and location of the retrofit).
Whether you need a RMP Retrofit or a tear-off, ATLroof.com has the manpower, equipment, training, and experience to complete your roofing repair needs.
