Roof Inspection
Inspection performed for: Gretchen Green Inspected By; Gene Whiting
Date of Inspection: November 17, 2014 Building Type: House
Job Address- 5506 Oleander Ave, Ft. Pierce
Note: Inspection does not include carport and front door overhang.
Aize of roof. Thirteen years old. Approximate Size: 1976 square feet
Roof System: A Whiting SPF (Spray Polyurethane Foam) roof system installed August 2001. The Whiting SPF
roof system is applied over a prior modified bitumen roof membrane. The modified bitumen membrane was
fastened to the wood deck prior to SPF installation.
Water tightness: No leaks were reported. Drainaize: Over the edges of the roof
Rooftop Equipment:, No roof top equipment.
Roof edge flashing: The roof edge flashing appears to be in good shape. There are some areas where the
elastomeric coating has worn through exposing the metal.
General roof condition:
Overall the SPF roof is in good shape but it is in need of some maintenance if you want it to continue to
perform as it should.
1. There are trees that are close to the house that have overhanging branches rubbing the roof. These trees
growing so close to the house are bad for the foundation, bad for the walls, provide a pathway into the
house for insects and will cause serious damage to the roof as the bralches sway in the wind. These trees
should be totally removed but at the minimum should have all branches cut back so that there is no contact
with the house or roof.
2. There are several areas throughout the roof where the protective elastomeric coating has worn through
exposing the SPF. It is fairly minor and repairable at this time. It is an indication that the entire roof is in
need of being cleaned, repairs done and then a new coat of elastomeric coating applied.
SUMMARY
The Whiting SPF roof system is a sustainable, insulated and hurricane resistant roof system. This roof is
currently in fair shape and with proper repairs and maintenance should remain in service indefinitely. This roof
is way overdue for regular maintenance. Our recommendation would be to perform a recoat to preserve your
roofing investment before it deteriorates beyond repair and becomes a reroof instead.
