FAQs
What happens during an on-site inspection for metal roofing in Elizabethton?
Our certified inspector visits your property to examine the current roof structure, measure all roof planes, identify potential problem areas (such as rust, loose fasteners, or inadequate ventilation), and evaluate the decking and flashing. We also check local code requirements and any HOA guidelines to ensure the new metal roof will comply.
Why is an on-site inspection important before installing or repairing a metal roof?
Every roof is unique. An in-person assessment lets us verify measurements, spot hidden damage, and choose the correct metal profile and gauge for Elizabethton’s climate. This prevents costly change orders, ensures accurate pricing, and guarantees that the finished roof will perform as intended for decades.
How long does the inspection take, and do I need to be home?
Most residential inspections take 45–60 minutes. While you don’t have to be present, we recommend it so the inspector can point out findings in real time and answer your questions. If you can’t be there, we’ll email a photo-rich report within 24 hours.
What does an on-site inspection cost?
For homeowners in the Elizabethton area, we provide the inspection at no charge when it’s tied to a replacement or major repair estimate. Stand-alone diagnostic inspections (for insurance claims or real-estate transactions) are available for a flat $175, which is credited back if you hire us for the work.
What information will I receive after the inspection?
You’ll get a detailed digital report that includes roof measurements, material recommendations (standing seam, exposed-fastener, or stone-coated metal), photos of any issues, an estimated project timeline, and a transparent quote. We also outline warranty options and available energy-saving upgrades.
Can an inspection be scheduled quickly after a storm?
Yes. We prioritize storm-related calls and can usually be on-site within 24 hours. Our inspectors are trained to document wind and hail damage that insurance adjusters often overlook, helping you submit a thorough claim and avoid underpayment.
