3 Easy Steps – Inspection Process
Damage inspection
This type of inspection is performed after a significant storm or other event has damaged your roof. It is designed to assess the extent of the damage and recommend repairs.
If the inspector finds any problems, they will recommend repairs. The cost of repairs will vary depending on the extent of the damage. In some cases, it may be necessary to replace the entire roof.
Routine inspection
We highly recommend an annual inspection to help identify potential problems with your roof before they become significant.
Routine inspections are necessary because they can help you to avoid costly repairs down the road. By identifying problems early on, you can have them fixed before they cause significant damage. Damage inspections are also necessary, as they can help you get insurance coverage for the damage to your roof.
Inspection Process
Here are some of the things that a roof inspector will look for during an inspection:
- Damaged shingles: Shingles are the most common type of roofing material, and they are susceptible to damage from storms, high winds, and falling debris. The inspector will look for cracked, missing, or curled shingles.
- Leaking seams: The seams between shingles are also susceptible to leaks. The inspector will look for any seams that are cracked or missing caulk.
- Drainage problems: Roofs must be adequately drained to prevent water damage. The inspector will look for any areas where water is pooling or where there are signs of water damage.
- Damage to flashing: Flashing is the material used to seal around vents, chimneys, and other roof penetrations. The inspector will look for damaged or missing flashing.
- Damage to chimneys: Chimneys are a common source of roof leaks. The inspector will look for any cracks or damage to the chimney.
