Roof Consultation and Replacement Design

A proper roof system is critical to protect the building interior and structural elements. Our professionals have experience with steep and low-slope roofing systems, and work with owners to identify roof defects and recommend repairs to maintain manufacturer warranties. When a roof membrane system has exceeded its useful life and replacement is required, Ascent will evaluate the existing systems and make recommendations based on each specific building and investment plan. We work with our clients, roofing manufacturers and contractors to design and oversee roof repair and replacement projects and ensure the work is completed properly. Our scope of roofing consultation services includes:

Leak investigation and testing
Roof core cuts
Warranty claims and documentation
Roof repair or replacement design
Roof management services
Construction phase representation

Parking Garage Restoration and Consulting

The growth of ride sharing, increasing construction costs, and the decrease of parking as a programmed component of new development have emphasized the importance of maintaining existing structures. Ascent professionals work closely with the owners of these structures to develop each unique project budget, schedule, goal, and maintenance plan. We understand the importance of maintaining an active facility, and repairs can be phased to minimize disruption and downtime while maximizing contractor production rates. Our scope of professional services offered consists of:

Investigation and reporting
Concrete repair & restoration design
Waterproofing & traffic bearing membranes
Sealant & expansion joint replacement
Phased maintenance plan
