Why Commercial Roof Inspections Matter
Proudly serving Spokane, WA; Coeur d’Alene, ID; Lewiston, ID; Clarkston, WA; Liberty Lake, WA; Moscow, ID; Post Falls, ID; Pullman, WA; and surrounding communities.
Protecting commercial buildings across Northern Idaho and Eastern Washington requires proactive care, especially given the region’s challenging weather conditions. As a Lewiston & Spokane roofing company, Russell Quality Roofing understands the unique challenges faced by commercial buildings in the Inland Northwest. Snow load, strong winds, and intense sun exposure can all take a toll on roofing systems over time. Regular commercial roof inspections help identify potential issues early, reducing costly downtime and preventing expensive repairs before they escalate.
Russell Quality Roofing offers commercial roof inspections and repair guidance for sloped roofing systems, tailored to the specific needs of each building. It’s important to note that Russell Quality Roofing specializes in commercial sloped roofing systems and does not specialize in installing commercial flat roofing.

What We Look for During a Commercial Roof Inspection
Roof Surface & Material Condition
We thoroughly examine the roof’s surface to assess the condition of materials such as architectural asphalt shingles and standing seam metal systems. We use premium roofing materials and emphasize the importance of selecting the right roofing materials for long-term performance and durability in the Inland Northwest climate. Our metal roof inspections follow MBCI-certified installation standards to ensure quality and durability.
Flashing, Transitions & Penetrations
Flashing around vents, chimneys, edges, and wall transitions are critical high-risk points for water entry. We carefully inspect these areas to detect any vulnerabilities that could lead to leaks.
Drainage Paths & Debris Accumulation
Proper water drainage is essential to prevent pooling and water damage. We assess drainage paths and note any visible obstructions or conditions that could impede proper water flow.
Attic or Upper-Structure Indicators
Inspection extends to attic spaces or upper structures to identify ventilation issues, signs of moisture, and signs of moisture or ventilation-related issues that could impact roof performance.
Signs Your Commercial Roof May Need Attention
Leaks or Interior Stains |
Missing, Bent, or Damaged Shingles |
Metal Panel Issues (Loose Fasteners, Damaged Seams) |
Rising Energy Costs From Heat Loss or Poor Ventilation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visible leaks or water stains inside the building often indicate roof damage requiring immediate attention. | Damaged shingles compromise the protective layer of the roof and increase the risk of water intrusion. | Visible metal panel conditions such as seam separation, panel movement, or fastener-related concerns that may indicate the need for repair or replacement. | Increased heating or cooling expenses may signal ventilation problems or heat loss through the roof. |
