The Roof Inspection Form serves as a critical tool for assessing the condition and safety of residential roofing systems. This comprehensive document captures essential details, including the inspection date, the inspector's name, and the structure's identification. It also gathers information about the building's purpose, type, and ownership, ensuring that all relevant parties are informed. The form prompts inspectors to note previous maintenance and repair work, along with the date of the last inspection. This historical context is vital for understanding the roof's current state. The form includes specific sections to document any changes in occupancy or structural modifications since the last inspection. It also addresses potential issues such as leaks, emergency repairs, and the roof's guarantee status. Inspectors evaluate various components, including the interior roof deck, exterior walls, and drainage systems, using a simple coding system to indicate their condition.
