FAQs
Why is a professional roof inspection important for Huntsville homeowners?
Huntsville’s weather brings intense summer heat, occasional hail, high winds, and heavy rain. A professional roof inspection identifies storm damage, hidden leaks, loose or missing shingles, and early signs of deterioration before they turn into costly repairs. Our certified inspectors use drones, moisture meters, and on-roof assessments to provide a full picture of your roof’s health, keeping your home protected and insurance claims straightforward.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection in Huntsville?
We recommend a routine inspection every 12–18 months and immediately after any major weather event (hail, tornado-strength winds, or severe thunderstorms). Regular check-ups allow us to detect minor issues early, extend the life of your roof, and maintain warranty and insurance requirements.
What does your “honest inspection” include?
Our honest inspection is a no-obligation service that covers: • Exterior evaluation (shingles, flashing, vents, chimneys, gutters) • Interior attic check for moisture, insulation gaps, and structural concerns • Infrared or moisture-meter testing for hidden leaks • Photographic documentation and drone imagery • A detailed written report with findings, recommended actions, and transparent pricing—repairs, maintenance, or confirmation that no work is needed.
How long will the inspection take, and will it disrupt my daily routine?
Most single-family homes take 45–90 minutes to inspect. Larger or complex roofs may take up to two hours. We schedule appointments at your convenience, require minimal homeowner involvement, and leave your property exactly as we found it—no mess, no hassle. You can carry on with your day while we work.
Will you try to sell me a new roof if repairs are enough?
Absolutely not. Our business is built on integrity. If your roof only needs minor repairs or is in good condition, that’s exactly what we’ll tell you. We photograph every area of concern so you can see what we see, and we outline multiple options (repair, maintenance, or replacement) with pros, cons, and costs. The decision is always yours.
What happens after the inspection?
Within 24 hours you’ll receive a digital report summarizing findings, photos, and a clear estimate for any recommended work. If repairs or replacement are needed, we help with insurance paperwork, schedule crews at your convenience, and keep you updated throughout the project. If no work is required, you still have a comprehensive health record for future reference.
