FAQs
What does your no-cost roof inspection in Charleston include?
Our complimentary inspection covers a full visual assessment of all accessible roof surfaces, flashings, vents, skylights, gutters, and the attic (when permission is granted). We check for missing or damaged shingles, lifted nails, soft decking, moisture intrusion, mold, and insulation issues that can shorten a roof’s life. You receive a written report with photographs, a condition rating, and repair or maintenance recommendations—at no charge and with zero obligation.
How do I schedule a free roof inspection, and how soon can you come out?
You can schedule an inspection by phone, online form, or live chat 24/7. During hurricane season we keep extra crews on standby, so most Charleston–area homeowners are booked within 24–48 hours. Emergency leak calls are prioritized and can often be inspected the same day.
Why is a professional roof inspection especially important in Charleston’s climate?
Charleston roofs face intense UV exposure, salty coastal air, high humidity, and frequent tropical storms. These factors accelerate shingle granule loss, rust flashing, loosen fasteners, and promote hidden moisture damage. A periodic professional inspection helps spot early problems before they lead to costly structural repairs or interior water damage, and it documents your roof’s condition for potential insurance claims after severe weather.
If issues are found, how quickly can roof repairs be completed and what will they cost?
For minor repairs such as replacing a few shingles or resealing flashing, we can often perform the work the same day or within 72 hours of your approval. Larger repairs may require special-order materials and a city permit, which typically extends the timeline to 5–7 business days. After the inspection you receive a detailed estimate that outlines labor, materials, and warranty coverage. Because every roof is different, prices vary, but we strive to present at least two repair options to fit your budget.
Are your technicians licensed and insured to work on roofs in South Carolina?
Yes. We hold an active South Carolina Residential Specialty Roofing License and all technicians are covered by $2 million in general liability and full workers’ compensation insurance. Copies of certificates are provided upon request. Our crews also complete OSHA safety training and manufacturer-specific education so any repairs maintain your product warranty.
Can you help with homeowners insurance claims for storm-related roof damage?
Absolutely. If the inspection reveals storm damage that may be covered, we’ll document all findings with photos and a detailed scope of work formatted for insurance adjusters. We meet the adjuster on-site to advocate for you, explain code requirements, and provide supplemental documentation if needed. While we can’t guarantee coverage decisions, our assistance streamlines the claim process and often speeds up approvals so repairs can begin sooner.
