Strata roof-planning checklist
A strata roofing checklist should move from records and condition to scope, approval, construction and closeout. Skipping the early record review often creates inconsistent bids later. Resolve deficiencies, collect warranties, receive roof maps and photos, confirm cleanup and record the first maintenance date.
Before condition work
Collect plans, warranty documents, prior reports, repair invoices, leak logs and contact information for affected buildings.
Before tender or proposals
Confirm roof areas, detail requirements, allowances, phasing, resident communication, parking, landscaping protection and decision dates.
Before final payment
Resolve deficiencies, collect warranties, receive roof maps and photos, confirm cleanup and record the first maintenance date.

- Council authorization and project contact
- Roof inventory and leak log
- Condition report and priorities
