Roof Consulting for Grain Elevators and Ag Storage
Elevators, storage buildings and processing facilities have tall, large and hard-to-reach roofs, often in open country exposed to hail and wind. We document them safely and independently.
We focus on the largest facilities and large-loss scale: big single roofs, multi-building campuses and portfolios, on buildings from 10,000 square feet to multi-million-square-foot facilities.
Common roof problems
- Tall structures and large roofs that are dangerous to walk
- Open-country exposure to hail and high wind
- Metal roofs and wall panels where fasteners, seams and corrosion matter
- Leaks that can damage stored commodities
- Multi-structure sites where one storm affects many buildings

Frequently asked questions
Can you inspect tall structures safely?
Drone inspection lets us document tall and hard-to-reach roofs without putting people at height for the whole survey.

Yes. Metal panels, fasteners, seams and coatings are part of our assessments.
