FAQs
What is involved in a typical roof inspection?
A typical roof inspection involves a thorough examination of your roof's overall condition, including the shingles, flashing, gutters, and underlayment. We look for any signs of damage, wear and tear, moss or algae growth, and any potential leaks. Our professionals also inspect structural components like the attic ventilation, insulation, and the condition of your roof deck.
How often should I get my roof inspected?
It's advisable to have your roof inspected at least once a year, ideally in the spring or fall. Additional inspections should be scheduled after any major weather event, such as a storm, heavy snowfall, or high winds, to ensure there hasn't been any damage.
What are the signs that my roof needs an inspection?
Common signs that your roof needs an inspection include missing or damaged shingles, visible leaks inside your home, sagging roof areas, water stains on your ceilings or walls, and a noticeable increase in energy bills. Even without visible signs, regular inspections can catch potential issues early.
How long does a roof inspection take?
The duration of a roof inspection can vary depending on the size and complexity of your roof, but most inspections typically take between 1 to 2 hours. Our inspectors are thorough, ensuring that all potential issues are identified and addressed.
What happens if issues are found during the inspection?
If our inspectors find any issues during the inspection, they will provide you with a detailed report outlining their findings and recommendations for repairs or replacements. We will also offer an estimate for the suggested work and discuss the potential next steps with you.
Is a roof inspection necessary if my roof is relatively new?
Yes, even if your roof is relatively new, regular inspections are still important. New roofs can experience issues such as improper installation or unforeseen damage from weather events. Early detection through routine inspections can help prevent minor issues from becoming major problems.
