RoofGeneral
Visibility None X All Partial Limited By:The following items or areas are not included in the inspection: areas that could not be traversed or viewed clearly due to lack of access: solar roofing components. Any comments made regarding these items are made as a courtesy only. Note that the inspector does not provide an estimate of remaining life on the roof surface material nor guarantee that leaks have not occurred in the roof structure, skylights or roof penetrations in the past. Regarding roof leaks, only active leaks, visible evidence of possible sources of leaks and evidence of past leaks observe during the inspection are reported on as part of the inspection. The inspector does not guarantee or warranty that leaks will not occur in the future. Complete access to all roof and attic spaces during all seasons and during prolonged periods of all types of weather conditions (e.g. high wind and rain, melting snow) would be needed to do so. Regarding the roof drainage system, and less the inspection was conducted during and after prolonged periods of heavy rain, the inspector was unable to determine if gutters, downspouts and extension were leak free
