Quality control roofing inspections play a crucial role in the construction and maintenance of commercial buildings, particularly in the long-term performance and durability of the roof system. Ensuring that strict quality control measures are in place throughout the construction process ensures that the new installation is completed in accordance with contract documents and industry standards.
Effective quality control through the time of construction allows minor issues to be identified and resolved at that time, rather than allowing the condition to expand and become costly to repair.
In order to achieve a seamless quality control roofing process, the third party inspector or consultant is involved in the project from time of contract award to the project close-out. Inspectors attend pre-construction and daily site meetings with the contractor foreman / superintendent, review work to be completed during the working day, review specifications and work completed for compliance to documents, and notate any variances observed throughout the day. Daily observation reports are then provided to all designated project contacts. Upon completion a final / close-out inspection is completed and a “Punch” list of items that require correction is generated. The installing contractor is then required to properly address the identified items in accordance with the construction contract.
The use of high-quality materials and the expertise of skilled contractors are vital in ensuring the longevity and performance of a commercial roof. Roofing contractors are required to provide detailed submittals of proposed materials for approval by the designer of record for compliance to contract documents. Onsite quality control inspectors ensure that the materials used are those that were approved, storage of the materials on site is in accordance with the manufacturer’s requirements, and no materials that were damaged during transport or storage are used on the project.
Quality control is a paramount aspect of any construction project, particularly when it comes to roofing. Business owners must be diligent in ensuring the proper execution of their roofing projects, as subpar work can lead to costly damages, reduced operational efficiency, and even health concerns. In the remainder of this article, we discuss some important tips to help you maintain quality control throughout the process, encompassing everything from selecting the right contractor to monitoring the project’s progress.
