FAQs
Why is a proactive roof inspection especially important for homes and businesses in Andersonville?
Andersonville experiences a full range of Mid-South weather—from intense summer heat to heavy spring storms and occasional winter ice. These temperature swings and storm events accelerate shingle wear, loosen flashing, and widen small gaps around vents and chimneys. A proactive inspection catches that hidden damage early, preventing leaks, mold growth, energy loss, and costly emergency repairs. In short, regular check-ups tailored to Andersonville’s climate extend roof life and protect everything beneath it.
What does your “Roofing Done Right” proactive inspection include?
Our certified technicians follow a 25-point checklist that covers structural, surface, and interior elements: • Exterior scan of shingles, tiles, or metal panels for cracks, curls, or corrosion • Flashing, drip-edge, and valley integrity check to spot early rust or separation • Sealing condition around vents, skylights, chimneys, and satellite mounts • Gutter and downspout alignment, fastening, and debris build-up assessment • Attic inspection for insulation gaps, daylight penetration, and moisture staining • Infrared moisture mapping to locate hidden leaks or wet insulation • Detailed photo report with repair recommendations, prioritized by urgency Every inspection ends with a sit-down review so you understand findings, options, and next steps—no pressure, just facts.
How often should I schedule a proactive roof inspection?
For most Andersonville properties we recommend twice a year—once in the spring after severe weather season and again in the early fall before winter sets in. If your roof is over 10 years old, has experienced hail or high-wind events, or if you’re planning to sell your property, schedule an additional inspection. Keeping to this routine maintains warranty compliance and often saves 20–30 % on long-term repair costs.
Can a proactive inspection help with insurance claims?
Absolutely. We document each visit with time-stamped photos, moisture readings, and written observations. If a storm later damages your roof, this historical record proves the pre-loss condition, speeds up claim approval, and maximizes payout. Many insurers in Tennessee even offer premium discounts when you supply a current professional roof inspection report.
Do you use advanced technology like drones or thermal imaging during the inspection?
Yes. Safety and thoroughness are core to our “Roofing Done Right” promise. We deploy: • 4K drones for high-resolution overhead imagery of hard-to-reach slopes • Hand-held thermal cameras to detect trapped moisture or poor insulation • Moisture meters that read through shingles and decking These tools allow us to find issues invisible to the naked eye, reduce walking on your roof, and give you undeniable visual evidence.
What does a proactive inspection cost and how do I book one in Andersonville?
A standard single-family roof inspection starts at $199, which is credited toward any repair work you authorize within 90 days.
