Projects - Roof Consulting (sloped and low slope):
At Aegis West Engineering we provide experienced roof consulting for
low (flat) sloped and sloped roof systems. Failure to manage and maintain
roofing systems often leads to big problems inside the building and costs
more money to repair.
New and replacement roof systems are not a separate building component and
must be properly detailed and integrated with all adjacent building systems.
Too often roofing related failures are caused by a lack of foresight and project
quality control and assurance.
