FAQs
How often should I schedule a professional roof inspection in Dandridge?
Because Dandridge experiences hot, humid summers, occasional hail, and the freeze-thaw cycles of East Tennessee winters, we recommend a professional roof inspection at least once a year—preferably every spring or fall. You should also book an inspection after any major storm, hail event, or if you notice interior leaks, missing shingles, or unusual roof noise.
What does your roof inspection include?
Our certified inspectors perform a comprehensive 60-point evaluation that covers exterior shingles, flashing, chimneys, vents, gutters, attic ventilation, insulation levels, and moisture intrusion. We document all findings with high-resolution photos, thermal imaging (when needed), and a written report outlining current condition, life-expectancy estimates, and any recommended repairs or maintenance.
How long does a typical inspection take, and do I need to be home?
Most single-family homes in Dandridge take 60–90 minutes to inspect. You do not have to be home, but we encourage you to be present near the end so we can walk you through the photos and answer questions. If you can’t be there, we’ll email the report the same day and schedule a call to review it together.
What are the benefits of a professional inspection versus a DIY check?
DIY checks can spot obvious problems, but a professional inspection uses specialized equipment (drones, moisture meters, thermal cameras) and code-knowledge that homeowners rarely have. Early detection of hidden leaks or ventilation issues can save thousands in structural and mold repairs, protect your warranty, and preserve home value—especially important in Dandridge’s competitive real-estate market and variable climate.
How much does a roof inspection cost, and is it refundable if I choose your company for repairs?
A standard residential inspection in the Dandridge area starts at $149. This fee is fully credited toward any repair or replacement work you authorize within 90 days of the inspection. For larger or multi-family properties, we provide a custom quote up front so there are no surprises.
Will the inspection affect my roof warranty or insurance coverage?
No. Our inspections are non-invasive and comply with manufacturer and insurance guidelines. In fact, many insurance carriers prefer or require documented inspections after severe weather. If we find storm damage, our detailed report, photos, and repair estimate can streamline your claim and help you receive fair coverage faster.
