The project brief

Identify the source of a problem and understand whether a targeted repair can address it.

The starting point is a review of the existing space, project goals, budget, and constraints. The following considerations show how that discussion can become a defined scope.

Roof-assessment considerations

  1. Review the location and history of reported leaks
  2. Inspect accessible roof areas and related details
  3. Define the repair area and material compatibility
  4. Explain findings and any limits of the assessment
