Houston gets an average of 50 inches of rain per year — more than Seattle. When apartment roofs leak, the water damage can affect multiple units, cause mold growth, and destroy tenant belongings. A pre-rainy-season roof inspection is essential.
Spring is the ideal time for a comprehensive apartment roof inspection in Houston. Before the heavy spring rains and summer thunderstorms arrive, have a professional inspect your roof for potential leak points.
A thorough roof inspection covers: membrane condition, flashing integrity, drain functionality, penetration seals (HVAC, vents, skylights), parapet wall condition, and ponding water assessment.
Common roof problems found during inspections: cracked or separated flashing, clogged roof drains, blistered membrane, loose edge metal, failed penetration seals, and UV degradation of the roof surface.
Documenting roof conditions before rainy season provides critical evidence for insurance claims if storm damage occurs later. Photos of pre-existing conditions help distinguish between new storm damage and pre-existing wear.
Don't wait for the first leak to inspect your roof. By then, water has already penetrated the building envelope and damage has begun. Call Tell Projects at (832) 203-7987 to schedule your pre-rainy-season roof inspection.
