FAQs
What does a roof inspection typically involve?
A roof inspection typically involves a detailed examination of all roofing components. This includes assessing the condition of shingles or tiles, checking for signs of damage like cracks or leaks, evaluating the status of gutters and downspouts, inspecting the flashing around chimneys and vents, and looking for any structural issues. Our inspectors will also check for proper insulation and ventilation to ensure the roof's health.
How often should I have my roof inspected?
It is recommended to have your roof inspected at least once a year. However, if there have been severe weather events, such as heavy storms, hail, or high winds, you should have it inspected immediately afterwards. Regular inspections help in identifying potential issues early, which can save costs on major repairs in the long run.
What are some common signs that my roof needs an inspection?
Common signs that your roof may need an inspection include visible damage like missing or curling shingles, water stains on your ceiling, unexplained increases in energy bills, sagging roof sections, moss or algae growth, and granules from shingles in gutters. If you notice any of these signs, it's a good idea to schedule an inspection.
Do I need to be home during the roof inspection?
While it's not strictly necessary for you to be home during a roof inspection, it can be beneficial. Being present allows the inspector to discuss findings in real-time and address any specific concerns you may have regarding your roof. However, if you can’t be present, we will provide a comprehensive report of our findings afterwards.
How long does a roof inspection take?
The duration of a roof inspection can vary depending on the size and complexity of your roof, as well as the condition it is in. On average, a thorough inspection will take between 45 minutes to an hour. For larger or more complex roofs, it may take longer.
What happens after the roof inspection is complete?
After the roof inspection, we will provide you with a detailed report of our findings. This report will include any issues identified, recommendations for repairs or maintenance, and an estimate if repairs are needed. We will also be available to discuss the report with you, answer any questions, and help you plan the next steps for maintaining or repairing your roof.
