Investigations

Investigations of in-place roofing systems are conducted by visually observing the entire roof area and photographing our observations.

Key Benefits

Identification and documentation of problems
Identification and documentation of potential roof leaks
Identification and documentation of maintenance items

Capabilities

Non-destructive testing is performed with the aid of a Troxler Nuclear Moisture Meter, capacitance moisture meter, or AGEMA 470 Infrared Scanner.  (James D. Cummins & Company is licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.)  It is necessary to verify readings with test cuts (destructive testing) in the existing roof assembly.  Test cut repairs are made in a professional, watertight manner.  Reports on findings are documented with photographs.

Visual Observation
Identifies roof system and highlights real or potential problems.
Troxler Nuclear Moisture Meter Testing
Sophisticated daylight testing executed on a 10' x 10' grid of the roofing system to finitely identify and document moisture ridden areas and leak sources.
AGEMA 470 Infrared Scanner Testing
Nighttime testing performed to identify and document leak sources and moisture ridden components of the roofing system.
Capacitance Moisture Meter Testing
Basic comparative testing of suspected moisture entrapment.
