Core sampling is the reliable way to verify membrane, insulation and deck composition before reroofing or warranty work. Take cores at least 6 in. from seams and flashings, and always patch and seal the hole to the roof manufacturer’s spec. A 2 in. cutter suits membrane and BUR sampling; larger diameters are used when full insulation build-up must be reviewed.

Core cutters have sharp cutting edges; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection, and always patch core holes to maintain roof watertightness.
