FAQs
Why are regular roof inspections important for Briceville homes?
Briceville’s mix of humid summers, frequent rain, and occasional winter freezes can accelerate shingle wear and create conditions where hidden leaks form. A semi-annual inspection helps detect small punctures, loose flashing, and early moisture intrusion before they cause rotten decking, mold, or interior ceiling stains. Proactive inspections typically cost far less than major leak repairs or a premature roof replacement.
What does Hidden Leaks Roofing look for during a roof inspection?
Our certified inspectors perform a 25-point evaluation. We examine shingles for cracking, curling, and granule loss; check flashing around chimneys, skylights, and vents; inspect gutters and downspouts for clogs or backing-up water; probe roof valleys and penetrations for soft spots; scan attic spaces with infrared cameras to locate hidden moisture; and document ventilation, insulation, and structural integrity. Every finding is photographed and included in your digital report.
How long does a typical roof inspection take in Briceville?
Most single-family home inspections take 60–90 minutes. Larger or complex roofs (multiple dormers, steep pitches, metal or tile sections) can take up to two hours. After the field work, our technician prepares your written report, which you receive via email the same day.
Will the inspection damage my roof?
No. We use soft-soled shoes, avoid unnecessary foot traffic, and employ drones for hard-to-reach or fragile sections. Infrared scanning is non-invasive, and moisture meters simply touch the surface. Your roof, gutters, and landscaping remain undisturbed throughout the process.
What happens if the inspector finds a hidden leak?
You receive a detailed leak-source map, moisture readings, and recommended repair options. Minor issues such as resealing flashing or replacing a few shingles can often be scheduled within 24–48 hours. For larger repairs, we provide a fixed-price proposal and can assist with insurance documentation if storm damage is involved.
How much does a professional roof inspection cost in Briceville?
Our standard residential inspection is $149. This includes the on-site assessment, infrared scan, gutter check, and a comprehensive digital report with photos. If you hire Hidden Leaks Roofing to perform any recommended repairs totaling $500 or more, we credit the full inspection fee toward that work.
