Here are ten telling signs you need to have your roof inspected.
-
Age of the Roof: Over time, shingles or other roofing materials deteriorate due to exposure to the elements, leading to cracks, breaks, and leaks.
-
Storm Damage: High winds, hail, or heavy rain can damage shingles, loosen roofing materials, or cause structural issues.
-
Poor Installation: Incorrect installation of roofing materials, flashing, or underlayment can lead to leaks and premature roof failure.
-
Lack of Maintenance: Not cleaning gutters, checking for debris, or inspecting the roof regularly can lead to clogged drainage systems, water buildup, and roof damage.
-
UV Exposure: Prolonged exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays can cause shingles to crack, warp, and loose granules, weakening their protective layer.
-
Ice Dams: In colder climates, ice dams can form at the edge of the roof, causing water to back up under shingles and potentially leading to leaks inside the home.
-
Clogged Gutters: When gutters are clogged with leaves or debris, they can overflow, causing water to pool on the roof and lead to rot or damage.
-
Improper Ventilation: Lack of proper attic ventilation can cause heat and moisture buildup, leading to mold growth, wood rot, and premature roof deterioration.
-
Tree Damage: Overhanging branches can scrape against the roof, causing shingles to break or get dislodged, while falling limbs can cause significant damage.
-
Pest Infestation: Animals like rodents or birds can make holes in roofing materials or create nests, leading to leaks and further damage if left untreated.


What Sets Us Apart
Our Comprehensive 12-Point Inspection Process: What we Look For

-
Shingles: Check for missing, cracked, curled, or damaged shingles, which could indicate wear or storm damage.
-
Roof Flashing: Inspect the metal flashing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys for rust, damage, or improper sealing.
-
Gutters and Downspouts: Ensure they are clean, free of debris, and properly attached, as clogged or damaged gutters can lead to water damage.
-
Roof Decking: Examine the underlying wooden structure for signs of rot, sagging, or water damage that could compromise roof integrity.
-
Attic Ventilation: Verify that the attic is properly ventilated to prevent heat buildup and moisture accumulation that can lead to mold and premature roofing material wear.
-
Roof Valleys: Check the valleys where two roof sections meet for signs of wear or damage, as these areas are prone to leaks.
-
Chimney and Skylights: Inspect these areas for cracks, leaks, or missing seals that could allow water penetration.
-
Roof Pitch: Evaluate the slope of the roof to ensure it's adequate for proper drainage, preventing water pooling or ice dams.
-
Flashing Around Vents: Check around vents for signs of cracks, gaps, or deterioration, which can lead to leaks if left unaddressed.
-
Shingle Granules: Inspect the gutters and surrounding areas for excessive granule loss, which is a sign that shingles are aging and losing their protective layer.
-
Signs of Water Damage: Look for water stains, mold, or mildew in the attic or ceilings, which may indicate a hidden leak.
-
Structural Integrity: Assess for any sagging, uneven areas, or noticeable shifts in the roof’s structure, which could point to underlying problems with the roof’s support system.
These elements all play a vital role in determining the overall health and lifespan of your roof. Regular inspections help catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs. Our detailed inspection covers every critical aspect of your roofs condition. This ensures that homeowners are fully aware of any potential issues and whether minor repairs or complete replacement is warranted.
