How This Automation Works
Scheduled inspection date approaching → Inspection reminders sent and tracked
Set Inspection Schedules
Configure inspection intervals for each property based on roof age, climate, and manufacturer recommendations. The system stores all pipe boot locations and their individual maintenance histories.
Monitor Upcoming Due Dates
The system continuously monitors all scheduled inspections and identifies which pipe boots require inspection within your defined advance notice period, typically 7-14 days before the due date.
Send Automated Reminders
Automatically sends detailed inspection reminders to assigned technicians via their preferred communication channel, including all relevant property details, access instructions, and previous inspection notes.
Notify Property Owners
Simultaneously notifies property owners or managers about the upcoming scheduled maintenance, demonstrating proactive service and maintaining transparent communication about roof care activities.
Track Completion Status
Monitors whether inspections are completed on schedule. If a due date passes without completion confirmation, the system sends follow-up reminders and escalation notifications to management.
Document and Archive
Automatically logs all inspection activities, completion dates, findings, and follow-up actions required. This creates a comprehensive maintenance history for warranty compliance and liability protection.
How It Works
Pipe boot failure is one of the leading causes of roof leaks, often going unnoticed until significant water damage occurs. This automated inspection system monitors inspection schedules for all pipe boot penetrations across your roofing portfolio, sends proactive reminders to technicians and property managers, and tracks completion status. By systematically inspecting pipe boots for cracks, deterioration, and proper sealing before problems escalate, you can prevent emergency repairs, extend roof life by years, and maintain warranty compliance. The system integrates with your existing maintenance calendar, customer database, and documentation tools to ensure no pipe boot goes uninspected.
The Trigger
The system automatically monitors your maintenance calendar and triggers notifications when pipe boot inspections are due based on seasonal schedules, manufacturer recommendations, or custom intervals you've set for each property.
The Action
Automatically sends inspection reminders to assigned technicians via email or SMS, notifies property owners of upcoming maintenance, creates inspection tasks in your project management system, and logs all activities for compliance documentation.
