WHY USE THERMAL IMAGING For Commercial Roof Leaks?

Roof leaks in a commercial roofing system can be difficult to find.  Flat roofs are especially notorious for multiple leaks and being challenging to pinpoint.  Even the most knowledgeable commercial roofing company may have trouble finding the exact cause or location of a flat roof leak.

By using an infrared camera and the state of the art thermography technology, our experienced commercial roofers are able to find the source of the leak or moisture that may be trapped within the roofing system.  A thermal imaging infrared camera roof inspection can also detect potential weak areas which may lead to future roof  leaks on a commercial roof.   An infrared camera allows us to see the commercial roof through a unique filter that puts a spotlight on potential leaks and weak portions of the roofing system.

What is an infrared camera?

INFRARED CAMERA THERMAL IMAGING IS A COMBINATION OF THERMOGRAPHY AND INFRARED LIGHT USED FOR ROOF LEAKS

Infrared Camera Thermal Imaging uses an energy that has a longer wavelength that our normal vision cannot see.  When thermal imaging is used, it expands the spectrum we perceive and allows us to see or measure thermal energy that is emitted from an object.  When using thermal energy, things are measured by temperature allowing us to see even cold objects or in total darkness.

An infrared camera allows us to find moisture in a roof, especially a flat roof, that our eyes cannot necessarily see.   Infrared cameras produce images of heat radiation and provide precise capabilities.
