Roof portfolio management
Multi-Building Roof Asset Management on One Dashboard
Multi-building roof asset management puts every roof in a portfolio on 1 dashboard, ranked by years remaining, so you can see which 3 roofs to fund this year instead of reading 40 separate PDFs.
Every roof is scanned the same way, scored on the same 0 to 100 scale and reported in the same format.
What does a portfolio roof dashboard show?
The portfolio dashboard shows every roof on 1 screen with its Roof Condition Score, Estimated Remaining Service Life, square footage and next recommended action, sorted so the roofs with the fewest years left sit at the top.
Example data for illustration. The 3 highlighted roofs are the candidates for this year's capital budget.
Each row links to the full PE-stamped report for that roof, with its Moisture Map, Deficiency Map and 1-3 Year Recommendations, so the detail is one click away when a decision needs it.
Why is 1 dashboard better than 40 separate roof reports?
Forty reports from different roofers use different formats, scales and dates, while 1 dashboard compares every roof on the same scale from the same scan method.
| Task | 40 separate PDFs | One portfolio dashboard |
|---|---|---|
| Find the worst roof | Read every report and compare by hand | Top row of the ranked list |
| Compare condition | Different scales or none at all | One 0 to 100 Roof Condition Score |
| Know when money is needed | Rarely stated | Estimated Remaining Service Life per roof |
| Check moisture | Usually not measured | Moisture Map for every roof |
| Answer an owner or lender | Days of assembly | Export the ranked list |
| Track change over time | Reports not comparable year to year | Score history at every scan |
How do you choose which 3 roofs to fund this year?
The 3 roofs to fund are usually those with 3 years or fewer of service life and a score below 56, weighed against what sits under each roof and what a repair could still save.
- Years remaining: roofs at 1 to 3 years are the funding candidates.
- Score band: Poor and Critical roofs (55 and below) come first.
- Moisture: a large wet area under the membrane narrows the options to replacement.
- Occupancy: a roof over inventory, tenants or equipment carries more risk.
- Repair value: a Fair roof with a small wet area may be restored for a fraction of replacement.
Turning the ranked list into a year-by-year budget is covered on roof capital planning.
How is a multi-building roof program rolled out?
A portfolio program rolls out in 4 steps, and at about 50,000 square feet an hour, several buildings on one site can be scanned in a single visit.

Addresses, approximate roof areas, roof types, and any warranties or prior reports.
Schedule the scans
Buildings are grouped by site and region so crews move efficiently.
Publish the baseline
Each PE-stamped report arrives within 48 hours and joins the ranked dashboard.
Assign a tier to each roof
Monitor, Protect or Manage, set roof by roof according to condition and risk.
What does multi-building roof asset management cost?
A portfolio of 12 buildings totaling 400,000 square feet costs $88,000 to $100,000 a year on Protect, because the square footage of every roof is added and priced at 1 plan rate.
400,000 sq ft multiplied by $0.12 to $0.15, $0.22 to $0.25 and $0.40 to $0.45 per square foot per year.
Rates, minimums and inclusions are on maintenance programs and pricing.
