A proper Crocker-Amazon inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb let go long before the covering does. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Infrared scanning on a Crocker-Amazon commercial roof locates wet insulation that no visual inspection would find. In practice, photographs with dates are part of every Crocker-Amazon inspection, because an undocumented claim gets read as wear and tear by any adjuster. Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Crocker-Amazon roofs, since the sheathing more often than not fails before the shingle does. It is the same story on most Crocker-Amazon streets. We photograph every elevation on a Crocker-Amazon work so the itemised estimate can be read against what is actually up there.
Flat and low-slope sections in Crocker-Amazon need a membrane or a coating system, not shingle laid at a pitch it was never designed for. TPO and modified bitumen both work on Crocker-Amazon low-slope roofs, and the choice usually comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. It is the same story on most Crocker-Amazon streets. As a rule, concrete tile suits Crocker-Amazon buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question earliest. That is as true in Crocker-Amazon as anywhere in San Francisco County.
