RoofSens combines several proven sensing and integrity-testing methods. Each technology is suited to different roof types, project stages, and detection requirements — and they can be deployed individually or in combination for layered protection.
Proprietary
RFID Sensing
Wireless smart tags with humidity and temperature sensors, embedded across the roof and read with a handheld scanner. No cables, no batteries.
Detection effectivenes
Reading:
Handheld scanner
Power:
Passive, no battery
Best for:
Concealed layers
LORAWAN
Long-range, low-power wireless network. Sensors continuously transmit moisture and ambient data to a gateway — ideal for large or distributed sites without dedicated wiring.
Detection effectivenes
Reading:
Continuous, remote
Best for:
Large sites, real-time
CONDUCTIVE MEMBRANE
A conductive layer integrated into the waterproofing detects breaches by measuring changes in electrical resistance, pinpointing leaks with high spatial accuracy.
Detection effectivenes
Reading:
Electrical resistance
Resolution:
High — exact point
Best for:
Critical sites
ild systems
Integrity Leak Detection using established low-voltage and high-voltage techniques. Verifies membrane integrity at handover and during scheduled inspections.
Detection effectivenes
Reading:
On-demand testing
Use case:
Commissioning
Best for:
Warranty verification
grid wire system
Permanent grid of conductive wires installed throughout the roof assembly. Each grid cell is independently monitored 24/7, pinpointing moisture intrusion in real time.
Detection effectivenes
Reading:
24/7 continuous
Resolution:
Per grid cell
Best for:
Inverted, green roofs
turnkey solution
End-to-end delivery: we design the optimal technology mix for your roof, manage installation with your contractor, and operate the monitoring system on your behalf — a single point of accountability.
Scope:
Design + install + operate
Approach:
Hybrid, project-tailored
Best for:
Full project handover
Hybrid deployments. Most projects combine two or more of these technologies — for example, a grid wire system for instant breach localisation paired with RFID sensors for ongoing moisture tracking. We select the right combination based on roof type, criticality, and budget.
partner opportunities
From your roof to a tailored system.
Every roof is different. We work alongside your team to design and deliver a monitoring solution that fits the project — from initial assessment through installation and long-term support.
PHASE 01
Assessment & Consultation
We evaluate your roof type, project stage, and risk profile to determine the most effective detection approach.
On-site or remote review
Risk and exposure analysis
Roof type classification
PHASE 02
System Design
Custom system architecture: which technologies, how many zones, sensor density, and integration points.
Tailored technology mix
Zone mapping & layout
Integration planning
PHASE 03
Installation & Commissioning
Our team coordinates with your contractor to install sensors, verify coverage, and bring the system online.
Installation supervision
Initial integrity testing
System commissioning
PHASE 04
Operation & Support
Ongoing monitoring, periodic inspections, and a direct line to our team for the lifetime of the system.
