Roof QA Observations (RRO-Certified)

Why Roof QA Observations Matter

Even on well-managed projects, roofing systems can fail early due to small installation issues that go unnoticed during construction:

• Membrane attachment inconsistencies

• Improper flashing terminations

• Slope and drainage details missed in the field

• Unverified substrate conditions

• Unaddressed moisture or deck deterioration

• Incomplete manufacturer requirements

Once the roof is closed in, these problems are difficult (or impossible) to verify — and even harder to enforce.

Roof QA Observations provide an independent, third-party layer of oversight so that key details are reviewed before they become costly problems.
