FAQs
Why should I schedule a professional roof inspection in Elizabethton?
Our corner of Northeast Tennessee is prone to heavy rain, high winds, and the occasional hailstorm that can damage shingles, flashing, and decking. A certified inspection catches hidden problems—like loose fasteners, moisture intrusion, or weakened underlayment—before they lead to leaks, mold, or costly structural repairs. Early detection can extend the life of your roof and protect your home’s value.
How often do experts recommend having my roof inspected?
For most asphalt-shingle and metal roofs in Elizabethton, we recommend a full inspection every 12 months, plus an additional check after any major storm event. Older roofs (15+ years) or those with prior storm damage benefit from a spring and fall inspection schedule. Regular assessments keep your manufacturer’s warranty intact and satisfy many homeowner-insurance requirements.
What does your certified roof inspection include?
Our NRCA-certified inspectors follow a 50-point checklist. We examine shingles, tiles, or metal panels for cracking, granule loss, and corrosion; inspect flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights; test gutter alignment and drainage; evaluate attic ventilation and insulation; use moisture meters and infrared imaging to locate hidden leaks; photograph every finding; and provide a digital report with repair recommendations and cost estimates.
How long does the inspection take and will I need to be home?
A typical single-family roof in Elizabethton takes 60–90 minutes to inspect, plus another 30 minutes for attic and interior checks. You do not have to be present, but we do need access to the attic hatch and any locked gates. If you can’t be home, we’ll email you a link to your photo report and schedule a follow-up call to review the results.
Are your inspectors fully certified and insured?
Yes. Every technician holds certifications from the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) and HAAG Engineering for residential roof damage assessment. Our company carries $2 million in general liability coverage and full workers’ compensation, exceeding Tennessee state requirements. Copies of all licenses and insurance certificates are available upon request.
Can you help with insurance claims if storm damage is found?
Absolutely. We document damage with date-stamped photos, thermal images, and a written scope of loss formatted for insurer review. Upon request, we’ll meet your adjuster on-site, answer technical questions, and provide supplemental estimates. This advocacy can speed claim approval and ensure you receive fair coverage for repairs or a full roof replacement.
