FAQs
How often should I schedule preventive roof inspections in Harrison?
For most residential and commercial roofs in Harrison, we recommend two scheduled inspections per year—once in the spring and once in the fall. Seasonal temperature swings, high winds, and winter freeze–thaw cycles can quickly turn small defects into leaks, so a semiannual schedule catches issues early. If your building has a flat roof, large tree cover, or houses sensitive equipment, quarterly inspections may be advisable.
What does a preventive maintenance roof inspection include?
Our certified technicians perform a 50-point check that covers: surface membrane condition, shingle or panel integrity, flashing and edge metal, seams and fasteners, gutter and downspout flow, attic ventilation, insulation moisture readings, sealant condition, penetrations (vents, chimneys, skylights), and roof-mounted HVAC supports. We finish with minor on-the-spot repairs (tightening fasteners, resealing exposed nails, clearing debris) and provide a digital report with photos, findings, and recommended actions.
Why are preventive maintenance and inspections especially important in Harrison’s climate?
Harrison experiences hot, humid summers, occasional hurricanes, and cold, snowy winters. UV exposure bakes roofing materials, while heavy rain and snow load stress seams and fasteners. Preventive inspections identify UV-cracked sealants, wind-loosened shingles, ponding water, and ice-dam damage before they breach the waterproofing layer. Early detection is far less expensive than emergency leak repairs or premature roof replacement.
Will regular inspections actually extend the life of my roof and save me money?
Yes. Industry studies show that a roof with a documented maintenance program lasts 30–50 % longer than an unmaintained roof. By repairing small defects during inspections, you avoid water intrusion that can rot decking, damage insulation, and foster mold—repairs that often cost thousands. In addition, well-maintained roofs maintain higher energy efficiency and prevent insurance premium surcharges caused by claims history.
How long does a scheduled preventive maintenance visit take, and will it disrupt my home or business?
A typical single-family home inspection takes 60–90 minutes. A mid-size commercial facility ranges from 2–4 hours, depending on roof size and complexity. Our crews work externally, so interior disruption is minimal—we only need attic access for a few minutes, if applicable. We schedule visits at your convenience and follow strict safety protocols to keep occupants and landscaping undisturbed.
Can you work with manufacturer warranties and provide documentation after each inspection?
Absolutely. Many manufacturers require documented annual maintenance to keep their material warranties valid. We are certified to inspect and service all major roofing brands and will complete any manufacturer-specific checklists. After each visit you receive a timestamped digital report, photographic evidence, and a maintenance log you can forward to warranty providers, insurers, or facility management software.
