Professional Roof Inspections That Catch Problems Early
Our roofing experts follow a thorough checklist that detects structural, material, and interior damage during inspections.
It’s easy for homeowners to spot minor damage like missing or curling shingles but there are other forms of damage that can’t be seen by the untrained eye. Professional roof inspectors are trained to detect certain damage on your roof that you may not have access to. Hiring a professional roof inspector will ensure that your property is thoroughly analyzed. During our roof inspections, we check for structural damage such as cracks or chimney damage. The materials that cover your roof will be looked over to ensure there are no missing or rusting parts. An interior inspection is one of the most important parts of the checkpoint list because it uses the inside of your home to check for tell-tale signs of damage like water stains.
Your roof should be professionally inspected at least once a year before the rainy season starts, and especially after extreme weather conditions such as tropical storms and hurricanes! We are the #1 roofing company in the Wesley Chapel area, servicing Plant City, Lakeland, Winter Haven, and surrounding cities.
Our Roof Inspection Checklist
We make sure no area of your roof goes unchecked because the safety of your home is our number one priority.
Structural Inspection
The structural inspection focuses less on the outward appearance of your roof and more on the structures that hold your roof together. Our roofers will look for uneven roof planes, sagging pitch points, and chimney cracks. We’ll also check your gutter systems for worn-out fascia and soffit as well as examine your attic for improper venting that could lead to a decreased roof life.
Interior Inspection
The inside of your home can alert roofers of small, undetected leaks that may be lurking somewhere on your roof. During a material inspection, we’ll check your ceilings, interior walls, and attic for water stains, rot, and other signs of water damage. Streaks of light on your interior walls can also be signs of an opening on your roof.
Material Inspection
This is the part of the inspection where we’ll attend to the aesthetics of your roof as we check for missing, loose or curling shingles. Flashing, also called fasteners, are a thin material that’s used to redirect water away from critical areas within your roof such as chimneys or skylights. We’ll make sure that your flashing isn’t damaged, rusty, or stained.
Roof Analysis & Recommendations
Once, we’ve completed the roof inspection we’ll deliver our findings to you in a detailed roof analysis. The analysis will include the current condition of your roof and recommended repairs to fix issues that we’ve found and to ensure your roof stays in good shape. We want you to get a full understanding of our roofing inspection which is why we create an analysis that is transparent and easy to grasp.
If your roof needs extensive repairs, we’ll take one thing off your plate and file your roof insurance claim for you!
You Need a Roof Inspection if You Notice
- Sagging Roof – If you notice that your roof is starting to present a sagging appearance, a roof inspection is needed as soon as possible. This indicates major structural damage within your foundation or attic.
- Missing Shingles – The problem with missing shingles is that they expose the underlayment of your roof to water damage. Water can eventually leak into your attic and ceilings and cause even more damage.
- Old Age – If your roof is a few decades old, you’re definitely in need of a roof inspection. A well-maintained roof can stand the test of time so if your roof is already aged, it’s best to schedule yearly inspections.
- Stains on the Ceiling – Water stains on your ceiling are a sure sign of a leak in the roof.
