The Importance of Professional Roof Inspections (Routine and After Storms)

As the first line of defense for your home or business, your roof takes a beating year round and can become severely damaged in a storm. Routine professional roof inspections provide you with a full report on your roof’s condition, including information about how many years of life are likely left, and estimates for repairs or replacement. Roof inspections following severe storms are crucial for catching small problems before they become larger, more difficult, and more expensive.

Routine Roof Inspections

Ignoring or skipping roof inspections could lead to much larger problems, like structural issues, insulation damage, and mold growth. Early detection of problems will save you from major headaches (and costs) down the road. At Reset Roofing, we will fully inspect your roof’s structure, materials, and workmanship. Upon completion of our inspection, we will provide you with a detailed report stating the condition of your roof and, if necessary, any recommended repairs.

Immediate Inspections Following Severe Storms

Just because you don’t immediately see any leaks inside your home after a severe storm, doesn’t mean your roof wasn’t damaged. It is highly advisable to contact your roofing contractor to look for lifted or missing shingles; standing water on the roof; bubbles in the roof; and bent, crooked, or gapped fascia, gutters, and downspouts.

Don’t DIY

A roof inspection is not a task your should do yourself. Not only is it dangerous but you may miss significant problems that a professional roofing contractor would not. Homeowners may be able to detect obvious roof problems (missing or flapping shingles) with their naked eye from the ground, but a roofing professional is specially trained to climb on a roof and detect issues that are not visible to the untrained eye.

“Unexpected roof repairs or roof replacements may not fit in your budget right now but they should not be put off or neglected.”
