FAQs
How often should I schedule a professional roof inspection in Belvidere?
Given Belvidere’s mix of hot summers, heavy rain, and harsh winter freeze–thaw cycles, we recommend a professional roof inspection at least once every year—ideally in the spring or early fall. An annual inspection catches storm damage, ice-dam issues, and age-related wear before small problems become costly repairs.
What does your Belvidere roof inspection include?
Our certified inspector performs a 50-point assessment that covers: shingles, flashing, vents, chimney caps, decking, gutters, attic ventilation, insulation levels, and signs of moisture intrusion or mold. We document everything with photos, provide a written condition report, and outline any recommended repairs, maintenance priorities, and cost estimates.
How long does a typical roof inspection take?
For an average single-family home in Belvidere, a thorough inspection generally takes 60–90 minutes. Larger or more complex roofs, or those with steep pitches, may take up to two hours so that we can safely access every section and compile accurate documentation.
Will a roof inspection help with my homeowner’s insurance claim?
Yes. Our detailed inspection report includes date-stamped photos, material descriptions, and professional findings that insurers look for when verifying storm or hail damage. Presenting this documentation often speeds up the claims process and can maximize your settlement for necessary repairs or a full roof replacement.
Do you offer free roof inspections after a major storm?
Absolutely. Because Boone County frequently experiences hail and high-wind events, we provide no-obligation post-storm inspections within 48 hours of your call. We check for lifted shingles, impact bruising, granule loss, and hidden leaks to determine whether you should file an insurance claim or schedule preventive maintenance.
What are the signs I need an immediate roof inspection?
Contact us right away if you notice missing or curling shingles, granules collecting in gutters, water stains on ceilings or attic decking, unexpected energy bill spikes, or mold/mildew odors. These symptoms often indicate active leaks or ventilation issues that can escalate quickly in Belvidere’s humid summers and freezing winters.
