New roof installation
A new roof performs best when roofing, framing, ventilation, insulation and water management are coordinated before installation begins. Early review reduces change orders at penetrations, parapets, walls and drainage points.
Best next step
Match the scope to the condition
System choice should reflect roof geometry, expected service, maintenance access, climate exposure and the building’s budget rather than appearance alone.
Condition review
What the inspection needs to establish
Plan review should confirm slopes, drainage, deck type, curb and penetration locations, membrane or shingle compatibility, access and sequencing with other trades.
- Late mechanical penetrations
- Unclear transitions between trades
- Temporary exposure before dry-in
- Ventilation paths blocked by insulation
- Details that do not match the selected roof system
