When to call

When to get your roof inspected

Suburban house with a grey shingle roof and a lawn

Before you buy a house

A general home inspector looks from the ground or a ladder. We walk the roof and look at the flashing, the decking and the chimney.

Before you sell

Know what a buyer's inspector will find, and fix the small things first.

FAQ

Roof inspection questions

How long does an inspection take?

Usually 30 to 60 minutes on site for a typical house, longer if the attic is hard to reach.

Do I need to be home?

It helps if we can get into the attic. If you can't be there, we'll inspect from the roof and send you the photos.

Can you inspect a house I'm buying?

Yes, with the seller's permission. Book early; inspection windows in a sale are short.

Will you try to sell me a new roof?

No. If the roof has years left, we'll say so. Many inspections end with a small repair or nothing at all.

Can you help with an insurance claim?

We document storm damage with dated photos and a written scope you can give your adjuster. We don't decide claims; your insurer does. See storm damage.

Do you inspect chimneys too?

We check the outside of the chimney (crown, brick, mortar, flashing, cap) as part of every roof inspection. For flue and liner inspections, use a certified chimney sweep.
