WHAT IS A COMPLIMENTARY ROOF INSPECTION?

A roof inspection is a service performed by a professional roofing company to determine the current condition of the roof. After this is performed, a detailed report is provided, describing any current conditions that need to be corrected as well as recommended preventative maintenance.

Roofing contractors will typically charge their customers $100 or more for a roof inspection and the issuance of the Roof Report. However, roof inspections and reports performed by us are completed at no charge and are usually issued within 1 to 2 business days after request. Roof reports are conveniently emailed within 24 hours of the inspection.

WHEN WILL I NEED AN INSPECTION?

Purchasing a home as part of the buyer inspection process
When a seller is listing a property to be made aware of a roof problem that could affect their transaction
When a roof certification is required by a lender as a condition of loan funding
When a roof certification is required by a home owner insurance policy
When a roof certification is required by a buyer, before closing on a property that they are purchasing, to make sure that the roof isn’t going to be a problem after they move into the home.

WHAT IS A ROOF REPORT?

A Roof Report is a written report, that is issued by an individual or by a company that is a licensed roofing contractor after a Roof Inspection has been completed on the roof of a home. The Roof Report provides a detailed description of any current roofing conditions that need to be corrected and any preventative maintenance to prevent a future roof problem from occurring. The Roof Report will provide options, from roof cleaning, roof maintenance, simple roof repairs, major roof repairs, roof restoration, or it may even recommend that a complete roof replacement is necessary.

WHAT ITEMS ARE NOTED IN A ROOF REPORT?

In many cases, a Roof Certification is required as a condition by the Buyer, the Lender, or the Homeowner Insurance Company before a real estate transaction can be completed. A Roof Inspection produces the Roof Report, which contains a description of what roof conditions need to be corrected before the Roof Certification can be issued. Typically, a Roof Report will contain a description of conditions that were observed and discovered during the Roof Inspection. Some of the notable items described in a Roof Report are as follows:

Number of Roof Layers
Pitch of the Roof
Roof Type
Estimated Age of the Roof
Estimated Remaining Years of Life Expectancy of the Roof
Any Noticeable Leaks
Color of the Roofing Material
Certifiable Condition of the Roof
Duration of any Required Certification
Any Findings of Current Problems or Conditions That Could Pose Future Roof Problems
Recommendations to Correct Current Problems and to Prevent Future Problems
Exclusions from Certification
