What’s Included in Our Roof Inspection
Our inspections are methodical and detailed. We take the time to look at the entire roofing system, not just the most visible areas.
Exterior roof inspection checklist includes:
- Shingles for wear, cracking, curling, or missing pieces
- Flashing around chimneys, walls, skylights, and roof transitions
- Vent boots, valleys, ridge caps, and roof penetrations
- Gutters and drainage points that can affect roof edges
Interior and attic checks include:
- Signs of moisture, leaks, or past water intrusion
- Ventilation performance and airflow issues
- Insulation clues that point to heat loss or condensation
- Mold-risk indicators caused by trapped moisture
We also look for workmanship issues such as nail pops, exposed fasteners, and improperly installed flashing. Every residential roof inspection includes photo documentation and a written summary that clearly explains what matters, what doesn’t, and why.
Signs You Should Schedule an Inspection Now
Some roof problems don’t show up until damage is already done. If you notice any of the following, it’s a good idea to schedule a residential or commercial roof inspection sooner rather than later:
- Missing, cracked, or curling shingles
- Granules collecting in gutters or at downspouts
- Soft spots, sagging areas, or uneven roof lines
- Flashing pulling away or separating from surfaces
- Water stains on ceilings or walls
- A musty smell in the attic
- Peeling paint near roof edges or eaves
There are also key “after” moments when an inspection makes sense:
- After a major storm with high winds or hail
- After buying a new home
- Before a roof warranty expires
Roof Inspection Types: Which One Do You Need?
Different situations call for different inspection approaches. We tailor the inspection to your needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all method.
- Routine preventative inspections for annual or bi-annual roof health checks
- Post-storm inspections to identify wind or hail damage that may not be obvious
- Real estate or pre-purchase inspections to avoid surprises after closing
- Leak-tracing inspections focused on tracking down the source of active or recurring leaks
- Pre-solar or pre-renovation inspections to confirm your roof is ready before new systems are installed
