Seattle roofs age through wet seasons, equipment changes, code updates, repairs, and occupancy changes. A roof is easiest to manage when that history is written down.
What a useful roof history includes
- Installation year, system type, and any manufacturer warranty on file.
- Every leak call, repair, and inspection, with dates and locations on a roof plan.
- Rooftop equipment additions and the penetrations they created.
- Condition notes and photos from each visit so changes are visible over time.
Why it matters
With a record in hand, owners can separate urgent leak control from planned restoration or replacement, and budget capital work in the right year instead of reacting to the next storm.
If your building has no roof record, a first roof walk can start one. Contact us at [email protected] or 206-203-3602.
