With over 40 years experience John D. Shepherd has conducted over 2000 roofing, waterproofing and exterior wall related leak investigations on residential and commercial buildings. Shepherd Consulting Services uses a range of inspection methodologies and a wide selection of investigation tools to identify the source of leaks, the cause of the conditions that lead to the leaks, and the extent of hidden damages that have resulted from the leaks.
Methodologies include both invasive and non-invasive standards developed by ASTM, AAMA, RCI, and several proprietary test protocols. Tools include infrared cameras, calibrated spray racks and wands, bore scopes, and many more.
Our leak investigation process begins with the collection of information from the client to determine the location(s) and history of the leaks, information on the original roof or wall system, past repairs, possible changes in building usage, and any other data that could be useful in the leak investigation. The location of the various leaks are plotted on floor and roof plans (either one provided by the client or one field drawn by our team).
A detail written report, which includes photographs and may include drawings and attachments, is prepared at the conclusion of our investigation.
