FAQs
Why do I need a professional roof inspection in Jellico?
Jellico’s weather swings from hot, humid summers to sudden storms and winter freezes. These shifts can loosen shingles, crack flashing, and open small leaks you may never see from the ground. A trained inspector knows where to look, spots early warning signs, and documents them in plain language so you can fix issues before they become expensive repairs or insurance claims.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection?
Most homes in Jellico benefit from a full inspection once a year, ideally in the spring or early fall. If your roof is over 15 years old, or you’ve experienced high-wind storms, hail, or heavy snow, consider an extra check-up right after the event. Regular inspections extend roof life and keep your warranty valid.
What does your “jargon-free” roof inspection report include?
You’ll receive a clear, photo-rich PDF that covers: • Roof surface condition (shingles, tiles, or metal panels) • Flashings around chimneys, vents, and skylights • Gutters and downspouts • Attic ventilation and insulation levels • Moisture readings that indicate hidden leaks Each section has a simple green-yellow-red rating, plain-English explanations, and prioritized recommendations so you know what needs attention first.
How long does a typical roof inspection take?
For an average single-family home, the on-site portion takes about 45–60 minutes. Complex roofs with multiple levels or very steep pitches can take up to 90 minutes. We then spend another 30 minutes compiling your report, which is emailed to you the same day.
Will the inspection damage my roof?
No. We use safe walk-pads, soft-soled shoes, and drones or telescopic cameras for hard-to-reach areas. Our goal is to leave your roof exactly as we found it—just better documented.
What happens if you find problems during the inspection?
Your report highlights every issue, from minor sealant cracks to missing shingles. We’ll discuss the findings, answer questions, and give you repair options with ballpark costs. You’re free to hire us, choose another contractor, or handle simple fixes yourself. There’s no obligation—our job is to inform, not pressure.
