Now, you may be asking, How can I verify that such a complicated project is done the way it’s supposed to be done? The answer is in the auditing process. The installer should handle all the details. Now listen carefully. A metal roofing specialist should be conducting timely roof audits. How many roof audits during the course of the endeavor? At LEAST 2 or 3 should be conducted by a steel building professional. Photographs and written reports are a necessity along with any “write-ups” of deficiencies. If there were deficiencies, what were the corrective actions? All these need to be listed in the audit. An experienced metal roof auditor can detect even the tiniest voids that would allow water to get inside the building. This is particularly important to ensure water tightness and prevent the damage that moisture can cause. (And don’t let anyone tell you that a tiny crack won’t matter. Such an attitude and lack of attention to quality and excellence can be a sign of laziness or incompetence.) Should you have any questions about how to correct a deficiency, then the auditor should have those details. A complete removal of all components followed by the reinstallation is essential to the integrity of the steel roof system. A final roof audit needs to be done to ensure that all noted deficiencies got corrected. If the installation process is handled well then you can expect to have a waterproof roof certain to help maintain a desirable climate controlled environment and last you for many years to come..
