## Two different roof areas

The initial request covered approximately 5,000 square feet of metal roofing and a separate 500-square-foot low-slope section. The owner also raised concerns about possible deterioration in the supporting material.

## Repair, coating or replacement

The owner preferred to retain the metal roof if its condition allowed coating or waterproofing. The low-slope corner was considered separately, including a possible TPO replacement and its connection to the larger metal roof.

## Planning the inspection

Customer-supplied aerial photographs supported the initial review. Field measurements, substrate checks, leak tracing and access planning would shape the final scope.
