Scope
What CKR reviews
- Roof condition review for multifamily communities planning replacement
- TPO and low-slope roof replacement planning where appropriate
- Photo documentation for owners, boards, managers, and facility teams
Approach
How the work gets planned
- Document visible roof conditions before recommending scope
- Separate maintenance items from replacement planning
- Coordinate phasing around occupied buildings, boards, managers, and approvals
Local angle
Why this page belongs in the moat
Multifamily replacement work has to be phased around residents, parking, access, leasing teams, and ownership approvals.
Decision proof
What CKR documents before a decision
- Roof photos tied to drains, seams, penetrations, curbs, edge metal, and access constraints
- A written split between maintenance items, capital replacement planning, and owner approval decisions
- Notes that help owners, boards, facility teams, and managers compare scopes without rushing
- A planned recommendation for inspections, documentation, budgeting, and phasing
FAQ
Questions this page answers
How do you replace a roof on an occupied apartment building?
CKR uses a Zero-Displacement Install Protocol: we tear off and dry-in one building section per day so no unit is ever left exposed overnight, stage materials away from resident paths, and clean the site each evening. At Arbor Garden we replaced roofs across 13 occupied buildings with zero tenant relocations and no interior water intrusion.
How long does it take to replace all the roofs in an apartment community?
Most metro Atlanta communities run two to six weeks depending on building count and weather, with each building's tear-off-to-dry-in finished in a single day. You get a building-by-building schedule in your 48-hour proposal so leasing can notify residents in advance. We sequence around move-in dates and amenity events to avoid disruption.
Should I repair or replace my apartment roofs?
If you are patching the same buildings every storm season or the membrane is past 15 years, replacement usually beats repair on cost per year of life. CKR sends a photo-documented assessment showing which buildings need full replacement now and which can be maintained, so you can phase spend across budget cycles instead of an all-at-once hit.
Can roof replacement be split across multiple budget years?
Yes. We routinely phase multifamily replacements building by building so the cost lands across two or three capital budgets. Your 48-hour proposal prices each building separately with No-Surprise Pricing, and our 10-Year No-Leak Pledge applies to each building as it is completed, not just at the end of the program.
