Roof Inspection Checklist Template: Smarter than PDF/Excel

Most of what is covered in a roof inspection can be easily understood by just viewing and/or using Sitemate's roof inspection checklist template, as it guides you through what is covered in any good roof inspection. The key sections include project basics like the location of the roof and inspection date, as well as more specific roof details like the roof condition, type of roof, issues or defects found and supporting evidence (photos etc.).

The great thing about Sitemate's templates is that they can be used while directly in the field. This means you can perform your roof inspection using a mobile or tablet device, by simple ticking and flicking checklist items as you progress through the roof sections, adding evidence and details as you go. Once finished, the form will be saved in the cloud, so you can revisit it at any time.

Good question, and it depends on the type of roofing inspection you are performing. Most roof inspections are relatively straight forward to trained professionals, and the checklist ensures that you understand the steps you need to take. You can expect the focus of most roof inspections to be on the exterior as that is the most prone to damage and defects, unless there is a known leak, in which case an internal inspection will be required too. As we flagged above, photo evidence is a critical part of any inspection, and even drone footage or surveys can be conducted on larger scale roofs (for non residential settings) in some circumstances.
