Building Envelope Assessments

The Rimkus Built Environment Solutions team can provide a complete assessment of a structure’s building envelope (façades, roofs, windows, balconies, walkways, parking areas, etc.) describing the condition of such and all items in need of repair. A recommended timeline and a projected construction cost will also be provided to assist the owner in projecting future budgets. For a full survey of all building components, Rimkus can increase the scope of the survey and provide a full Property Condition Assessment (PCA) including mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, elevators, and interiors. Building envelope assessments and PCAs are typically provided with 5- or 10-year projections; however, they may be customized to the client’s needs. These reports can be utilized as a tool to help create capital expenditure budgets and establish maintenance schedules.

Contract Administration

Retaining Rimkus to handle your Contract Administration services on your roof construction projects will provide you with seasoned professionals who know how to control costs and long term outcomes. You will experience greatly improved transparency and accountability from your contractors and you will also be far more likely to maintain critical schedules, budgets, and deadlines on your projects. Rimkus achieves these benefits by maintaining a free flow of information between the Contractor and Owner. Our services also include payment certification and preparation of change orders for any additional work that may be encountered during the course of the project. We strive to protect our clients by confirming that the solutions you invest in meet all of your roofing and building portfolio needs. At Rimkus, you will find a level of personal attention on every project that is unmatched by any of our competitors. Trust in our veteran team, state-of-the-art technology, and our decades of experience in the industry. We offer:

  • Contract Administration
  • Schedule, budget, and deadline maintenance
  • Minimization of building occupant disruptions
  • Payment certification
  • Preparation of change orders
  • Review of shop drawings / material submissions

 

Diagnostic Testing

To properly assess the condition of your roof we need to determine its composition, quality, and moisture content. At Rimkus, we can accurately assess each of those factors with our Destructive and Non-Destructive Testing protocols. It is one of the steps taken during your Roof Condition Analysis and a necessary tool in projecting the life expectancy and long-term costs of your roof. We can also use the results to save you money by identifying problems before they become catastrophic. We strive to protect our clients by confirming that the solutions you invest in meet all of your roofing and building portfolio needs. At Rimkus, you will find a level of personal attention on every project that is unmatched by any of our competitors. You can place your trust in our veteran team, state-of-the-art technology, and our decades of experience in the industry.

We offer a variety of diagnostic testing methods:

  • Infrared thermography
  • Tramex moisture meter
  • Electrical Field Vector Mapping (EFVM)
  • Core cut testing
  • Delmhorst Probe

 

Façade Inspections

When façade elements fail, components could fall, thereby putting people and property at risk. As a response to this, many cities have passed façade ordinances to identify unsafe conditions, such as loose façade components or materials that may fall and cause damage to property or injury to pedestrians. At Rimkus, we provide professional building inspections supported by recommendations and design for proactive maintenance and repair programs. Façade inspections typically fall into one of the following categories:

  • Safe: Requires no attention
  • Safe with a Repair and Maintenance Program: Requires repairs or maintenance within a time period designated by the professional in order to prevent deterioration into an unsafe condition
  • Unsafe: Has no reliable means of structural support and is dangerous to persons or property. Requires prompt remedial action.

Conducting Inspections Inspection requirements range from visual inspection of street-facing façades by architects, engineers, or contractors, to “hands-on inspections” that require licensed engineers or architects to physically touch façade components for each elevation of the building along the entire height of each elevation. Typically, inspections are required for buildings over five stories, with inspection frequencies ranging from two to five years. Our experts are well versed in façade condition assessments and have the experience and knowledge needed to identify repair details as well as oversee the completion of the repairs on behalf of the property owner.

Façade Restoration

The appurtenances of a façade (balconies, fire escapes, etc.) often deteriorate faster than the façade itself and therefore require particular attention and, often, increased maintenance. Repairs to these elements should be addressed in a manner that will prolong the useful life of the appurtenance as well as the repairs performed. The Rimkus Building Envelope team can assist in all phases of façade restoration. We are well versed in façade restoration, with a long track record of success on projects varying from low-rise commercial and residential buildings to luxury high-rise towers. The façade, while best known for its aesthetic, also provides structural support for a building and vertical weatherproofing for its interior spaces. All three of these components should be analyzed during façade restoration. Performing a thorough analysis of the building’s façade prior to design, Rimkus provides a detailed list of findings and recommendations for immediate repairs as well as preventative maintenance to completely address façade functions. At Rimkus, we believe that the key to a successful façade restoration project often occurs before the contractor arrives on-site. A thorough and detailed pre-construction effort, including preliminary investigation, preparation of contract documents, bid process and review, pre-construction meeting(s), and review of all mock-ups and submittals, will often eliminate unnecessary costs and construction delays.

Historic Preservation

Rimkus has had the distinct pleasure of working on numerous historic and landmark structures, including both high-rise and low-rise office buildings as well as a number of ornate residential buildings. Exhaustive research, early coordination with all governing agencies, and involvement of qualified experienced professionals are all essential components in the preservation of these delicate historic structures. When analyzing and repairing the building envelope of historic structures a conservationist perspective is preferable, full-scale repair or replacement is not always best. Thorough documentation of existing conditions including sketches, photographs, and cataloging of deteriorated elements is imperative to the restoration process. The use of new technologies to eliminate unnecessary probes and demolition is advisable. By incorporating the use of laser scanning, Rimkus can achieve an unprecedented level of detail and accuracy during the design phase often without the need for hands-on visual inspections. In addition to providing thorough contract documents; these laser scans will allow for the creation of 3D models of decorative stone units for shop drawings and mold casting.

Leak Investigations

Rimkus offers a thorough approach to leak investigations, recognizing that a successful investigation requires pursuing all possible sources of water infiltration. With years of experience, Rimkus understands that there may be multiple factors contributing to a leak. Rimkus offers a range of services to assist in determining the source(s) of water infiltration, including hands-on and visual inspections, non-destructive testing techniques, and more traditional methods of probes and water tests. Our non-destructive testing techniques include the use of infrared imaging to identify thermal anomalies and moisture-compromised insulation, the use of roof and wall moisture scanners and moisture meters to perform impedance testing and identify the relative moisture content of the material, and electronic leak detection (electric field vector mapping) to identify the precise location of water infiltration.

Roof Condition Assessments

Rimkus recommends a roof condition assessment to better understand the life expectancy of a roof and to address an immediate concern. The result is a promptly delivered roof analysis outlining the strengths and weaknesses of the existing roof system. Our findings are put into a clear and legible report that includes photo evidence, illustrations, and a colored AutoCAD roof plan. We believe that a high level of clarity and transparency is crucial to help our clients make informed decisions. Many of our technicians are RCI Inc., RRC, and RRO certified. Our emergency leak responders can diagnose numerous problems on the spot and expedite the remediation strategy. Capital planning is also an important component that we provide as part this process. We believe it is important to provide our clients with a strategy for future investments and expenditures to meet both the short and long-term budget plans.

Waterproofing and Weatherproofing Assessments and Design

Rimkus assists in the evaluation of existing roofing/waterproofing systems, as well as the design and construction administration of the repair or replacement, of all roofing/waterproofing systems including:

  • Single Ply (Thermoset and Thermoplastic) Systems
  • Modified Bitumen Roof Systems
  • Fluid-Applied Liquid Membranes
  • Vegetative/Green Roofs
  • Balcony Waterproofing
  • Below-Grade and Sidewalk Vault Waterproofing

Similar to most aspects of construction one size, does not fit all with respect to roofing and waterproofing systems. Several factors determine the appropriate system for a particular building, including:

  • Building Code Regulations
  • Requirements of Owner’s Insurance Provider
  • Climate and Wind/Weather Exposure
  • Frequency and Type of Foot Traffic
  • Intended Use (of Roof Surface and Interior Space Below)
  • Mechanical Equipment and Exhaust Units
  • Overall Size
  • Roof Slope
  • Desired Life Expectancy
  • Owner’s Budget
  • Number of Penetrations
  • Roof Deck Composition

Several commonly overlooked processes can be established during the installation of a new roof that will help reduce the cost of future maintenance and extend the service life of the roof system:

Leak detection systems can be installed in most roof systems to use as a quality assurance tool and to allow for easy identification of future leaks. This is particularly important in roofs with an overburden (i.e., inverted roof systems and vegetative roofs). A custom-tailored roof inspection and maintenance schedule should be provided for the owner’s use in prolonging the useful life of the roof system and minimizing the risk of leaks resulting from roof damage.

7 Signs You Need A New Roof

Here in Jacksonville, roofs take a beating from salt, wind, UV radiation, and heat. Generally, roofs in northern Florida will last about 15-20 years, but any roof in the region should be inspected every year. Roof repairs should always be done by a local, professional roofing company who is licensed and insured. But how do you know when to call them? Depending on the style of roof, some will show wear better than others, so today we will suggest seven visual signs that your roof needs replacing.

Sign 1: Leaks and Stains
Visible stains on a ceiling or wall may appear to be an obvious roof problem. However, roof leaks can be tricky to locate because water can enter the attic, travel along framing like trusses, and drip somewhere unrelated to the leak. If you see a new stain along an exterior wall or ceiling you may need an emergency repair.

Crawling around in attics with no floor can lead to accidents and personal injury, so leave that task to the pros. Jacksonville roofers have experience working in hot Florida attics and can use that experience to find elusive roof leaks and their sources. Many Jacksonville roofers even wear special boots that allow them to safely walk across trusses and up steep roof angles.

Sign 2: The Roof is Old
It’s a good idea to keep maintenance records on your home like the age of your roof. Most asphalt shingle roofs will last between ten and twenty years, but if your records show it’s time for a replacement, get your roof inspected by a licensed and insured, Jacksonville roofing company. Roof repairs are critical to the health of your home because leaks can cause mold and mildew growth. Even if you see no visual problems yourself, let a pro perform a no-obligation inspection of your roof to prevent future damage.

Sign 3: Look For Debris In Your Gutters
It might seem counterintuitive to look for roof issues in your gutters, but doing so is a smart move. Most Jacksonville roofs are made from materials that wear over time, like fiberglass/asphalt shingles, tiles, and wooden shakes. As the roof wears, the material it sheds will usually collect in the gutters, as the material is too heavy to be washed away.

To perform your own inspection, look for what appears to be sand in the bottom of the gutter. Most of the debris will collect at the lowest point on the gutter, so usually the first place to look is near the downspout. If you cannot see the bottom of the gutter because the debris is blocking your view, a significant amount of the roof has eroded away. If you discover you need an emergency roof repair caused by a strong storm, get a professional inspection by a licensed and insured roofer.

Sign 4: Cracks or Gaps in Your Flashing
Jacksonville roofs can get some severe weather, so even a small crack around roof flashing (thin sheet metal) can allow precipitation to penetrate the roof. Even if the leak only occurs when the rain is blowing sideways, eventually the damage will accumulate. When it does, the roof underlayment and roof decking will begin to soften and rot.

Sign 5: Sags in the Roof
You may have seen older homes with roofs that appear to dip and sag. More often than not, the framing under these roofs has become water damaged, allowing the framing to bend under the weight of the roof. Sagging roofs can still be repaired and reroofed, but care should be taken to hire an experienced professional who is licensed and insured.

Professionals should determine which style of roof will function best in the situation. For example, an inexperienced roofer may be unaware that certain types of roofing require specific roof pitches to work as designed. Using the incorrect roof material on a sagging roof can actually cause more problems than it solves, so always consult a professional in these situations.

Sign 6: Moss and Mold On Your Roof
Moss on your roof indicates a moisture problem severe enough to cause rot. These plants require near constant moisture and limited sunlight, so if they are actively growing on your roof, the roof is never completely drying out. Roofs should be dry in a matter of hours after a rain shower, so if your roof is holding moisture, the moss and mold will be a likely indicator.

Sign 7: Small Visible Damage
Most roofing materials will degrade over time and leave debris in the gutters. A very common find are small bits of roofing material that have dry rotted and broken away. For asphalt shingles, these are often small corners of a shingle, or in the case of shakes, small splinters of wood as  these roofing materials begin to degrade with age.

Get Help Today! Contact Stonebridge Roofing
If you are unaware of the age of your roof, but begin to see small pieces of debris at the base of your downspouts, you can assume your roof is approaching its lifespan. This is a perfect time to contact a reputable Jacksonville roofing company, like Stonebridge Roofing and request a roof health report from a local expert roofer. For $150, your roof health report will include an overview of any visible damage (with photos), repair recommendations and an assessment of the lifespan left on your current roof.

Stonebridge Roofing is a licensed and insured, certified roofing installer, so they are approved by the manufacturer to provide a warranty. Stonebridge Roofing can also help with new replacement windows, vinyl siding, gutters, and painting as well.

The daily beating of the sun on an asphalt shingle roof bakes at a quicker rate than the same roof type in northern states. I want my customers to understand that the demise of this asphalt shingles is “dry” and “brittleness.” The best and easiest way to explain it to you is the “burnt toast” analogy. If you take a fresh slice of bread and leave it in the toaster for too long, it will come out black and burnt. If you bend it, it will crunch or break in half. Now if you spread butter on that same piece of toast and let it sit for 20-30 minutes, you would be able to bend it without breaking in half. Very simple to understand. This is the condition of your asphalt shingle. You will pay more money for a roof replacement, more frequently, because less asphalt is used in the shingle.
Insurance has been difficult with homeowners here in the Tri-County area and it was tougher to sell the service here because of that. Now that SB-2D was passed into law (May 2022) by the Florida state legislators, we now have a much better opportunity to help those older roofs qualify for at least FIVE more years of life (if not longer), thus helping those property owners save their money and their roofs.
We won’t do repairs because of our limits with state licensing, but we offer minor maintenance, such as painting rusted vents, caulking some exposed nail heads, which are common, or replacing a missing shingle tab or two. This roof tune-up is a $499 value, usually done as a courtesy if a Roof Maxx treatment is done with us. We also offer discounts on such things as seniors, veterans and civil employees (like police and fire or first responders). We also give discounts to repeat customers and discounts base on volume (like commercial jobs).

Commercial Roof Maintenance in South Florida by PSI Roofing

Commercial Roof Maintenance in South Florida

by PSI Roofing / Paulo Souza ,Poul Folkersen

Each year, millions of dollars are wasted on unnecessary roof replacement due to lack of ongoing maintenance.  90% of early roof failures are caused by lack of proper roof maintenance.  Small leaks can cause extensive damage to the interior of your building as well as the roof system itself and may not be detected for some time.  Regular maintenance can prevent unforeseen costs and extend the life of your roof by up to 30%.

The best way to extend the life of your roof is to have a roofing company perform regular roof inspections and maintenance.  All roofing manufacturers require regular inspections and maintenance to maintain coverage.  Regular inspections can also prevent costly problems from issues not covered by the manufacturer’s guarantee. Such as damage from vandalism, damage done to the roof by other contractors, or structural deterioration.  PSI Roofing provides roof maintenance in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and surrounding areas. We offer one, three and five year warranties on your new roof to take care of any outstanding problems not covered by the manufacturer.

Leak-Free Guarantee With Our Annual Roof Maintenance Program
