Steep Roofs

Becht offers roof consulting services to facilities managers, property managers, building owners, and manufacturers for both steep roofs. We are experienced in the investigation and specification of repair, replacement or recover procedures for steep roof systems. Our life cycle analysis investigations will report on the condition of your roof and evaluate possible repair, restoration or replacement options. As an experienced consultant, we advise our clients on the best course of action to manage their roof as an asset of their building.

Our roof consulting services are supported by our in house professional engineering expertise. This allows for complete roof systems evaluations including the diagnosis of structural and mechanical engineering issues that may be impacting the performance of your roof.

Understanding the conditions of a particular building and what is proper in a given situation is a hallmark of our roof consulting services. Providing a cost effective, long term solution to a roofing problem requires this knowledge of alternative methods and where their advantages and limitations lie.

Becht has a long history of providing consulting services for the inspection, analysis, repair and replacement of steep roof systems. We have overseen the replacement of hundreds of thousands of squares of steep roofing at multitudes of residential development communities. We were at the forefront of remediation efforts for the replacement of defective Fire Retardant Treated Plywood (FRTP) at multi-unit housing complexes.

Steep roof systems typically utilize asphalt shingles, metal roofing panels, wood shakes, tiles, or newer alternative products such as plastic shingles or steel tiles.
