From the ground and inside the building
Look for displaced material, blocked gutters, damaged edges, interior stains, damp odours and changes after storms.
- Check ceilings and upper walls
- Note when stains appear
- Photograph visible exterior damage from the ground
- Keep downspout discharge paths clear
During a suitable roof review
A safe review may consider surface condition, flashing, drains, penetrations, debris, transitions and signs of previous repair.
Turn observations into priorities
Separate routine cleaning, items to monitor, focused repair and broader replacement planning.
