FAQs
Why is a certified roofing inspection important for homeowners in Benton?
A certified inspection gives you an expert, unbiased evaluation of your roof’s condition. In Benton, roofs face intense summer heat, high humidity, and spring storms that can loosen shingles and create hidden leaks. A certified inspector is trained to spot early signs of damage, follow Arkansas building codes, and document findings in a way that satisfies insurers and lenders. This protects your investment, helps you plan maintenance budgets, and can even increase the resale value of your home.
What does your certified roof inspection process include?
Our process starts with a free phone consultation, followed by an on-site visit where we: 1) examine shingles, flashing, vents, and seals from the roof surface; 2) inspect attic insulation, ventilation, and decking from inside; 3) check gutters, downspouts, and fascia for water diversion issues; 4) look for storm, wind, or hail impacts using industry checklists; 5) take high-resolution photos and drone images if needed; and 6) test moisture levels with infrared or pin-type meters. All findings are compiled into a detailed digital report with repair recommendations and cost estimates.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection in Benton’s climate?
We recommend a full inspection at least once every two years for asphalt shingle roofs and annually for older roofs or those with previous storm damage. After any major weather event—such as hail, heavy winds, or tornado warnings—an additional post-storm inspection is advisable. Regular checks help catch small issues before they become costly leaks or structural problems.
Will you provide a written inspection report and estimate for repairs?
Yes. Within 24–48 hours of the inspection you’ll receive a PDF report that includes photographs, detailed notes on each roofing component, a condition grade, and a prioritized list of recommended repairs. If repairs are needed, we include transparent pricing, projected timelines, and material options so you can make an informed decision. This report meets insurance and real-estate documentation standards.
Can a roof inspection help with insurance claims for storm damage in Benton?
Absolutely. Insurance carriers often require proof that damage was storm-related and not due to neglect. Our certified inspectors document impact points, measure hail dents, and reference NOAA storm data for the date of loss. We supply the photos, diagrams, and narrative insurers need, and can meet adjusters on site to discuss findings, increasing your chances of a fair settlement.
How much does a professional roof inspection cost and how long does it take?
For single-family homes in Benton, a standard inspection costs between $150 and $275, depending on roof size, pitch, and accessibility. The on-site portion usually takes 60–90 minutes; more complex roofs or drone imaging can add another 30 minutes. You will receive the completed report within two business days, and emergency storm inspections are available for same-day service at a modest surcharge.
