A zip level is a crucial tool for examining the foundation and floors of a property. By measuring the elevations at various points, this technology can detect even the slightest movements or shifts in the foundation. This precision allows Building Supporters to identify any irregularities that may indicate potential structural issues. Foundation movement can compromise the structural integrity of a home, leading to plumbing leaks, malfunctioning doors and windows, and visible gaps between components.

In addition to inspecting the foundation, a zip level is used to evaluate the exterior grading of a property. By measuring the elevations of the surrounding ground, Building Supporters can determine if the grading slopes away from the building as intended. Proper exterior grading is essential for effective drainage, preventing water from pooling near the foundation and causing potential water damage.

For roofing inspections, the zip level is a valuable tool for measuring the elevations of different sections of the roof, such as flat roofs like Built-up Roof (BUR), Modified Bitumen (Mod-Bit), Concrete, TPO, EPDM, PVC, and more. Analyzing the roof’s slopes and angles helps assess the overall condition and integrity of the roofing system. The zip level system can identify issues such as ponding, sagging roof decks, installation errors like crushed insulation, and more, providing valuable insights into the roof’s health and potential defects.
