What is the purpose of getting an independent Roof Inspection?
Whether your buying, selling, appraising, or renovating, knowing the condition of a properties roof can substantially change the status of the sale. Our roof inspector will determine the general condition of your roof, it's life expectancy, and determine any maintenance or repairs that are needed. We provide a clear unbiased expert assessment of the roofs condition in PDF format for easy review and transmittal.
Roof inspections are more than a general home inspection. Generally speaking, most home inspectors do not perform thorough roof inspections due to the possibility of damage, injury, and / or liability. Coupled with the possibility of damage to the existing roof, accessibility issues, personal safety, and / or liability the vast majority of general home inspections do not include a thorough roof inspection. Our roof inspections determine the current condition of the roof in question and provide a computerized report on:
- Condition of all roofing materials and applications
- Flashing around roof transitions, chimneys, HVAC units, vents, and valleys
- Required repairs and preventative maintenance tips
- Ridge caps, drip edge, specialty flashing
- Conditions which could cause a roof leaks in the future
- Soundness of roof drains, downspouts, and gutters
Easy to Read Computerized Reports
All roof inspection reports are provided in PDF format and all conditions and deficiencies are clearly notated and referenced to specific digital photos. When many corrections and/or major corrections are required these digital photos make sure that whoever is responsible for the repairs has a clear outline of what needs to be done.
