FAQs
What does a “pressure-free” roofing & siding inspection involve?
Our pressure-free inspection is a no-obligation service where a licensed technician carefully evaluates your roof, siding, flashing, gutters, and ventilation without trying to sell you anything on the spot. We document findings with photos and written notes, explain what we see in plain language, and leave you with a detailed report and cost-effective recommendations. You decide if and when to proceed—no surprise up-selling or on-site contracts.
How does Monterey’s coastal climate affect my roof and siding?
Monterey’s salty sea air, frequent fog, and occasional high winds can accelerate corrosion, moisture intrusion, and UV degradation. Metal fasteners can rust, asphalt shingles can lose granules faster, and wood siding may swell or rot. Our inspectors focus on salt-spray damage, wind-lift points, and moisture traps unique to this climate so you can address issues before they turn into costly leaks or structural problems.
How long will the inspection take and do I need to be home?
A typical single-family home inspection takes 45–90 minutes. While we prefer homeowners to be present so we can discuss findings in real time, it isn’t mandatory. If you can’t be there, we’ll email a photo-rich report and schedule a phone or video call to review it together at your convenience.
What happens if the inspection finds damage? Am I obligated to hire you?
Absolutely not. We provide a prioritized list of repair or replacement options, complete with transparent pricing. You’re free to compare quotes or even DIY minor fixes. Our goal is to give you the facts so you can make an informed decision—no commitment required.
Do you help with insurance claims for storm or wind damage in Monterey County?
Yes. If we identify damage that may be covered by your homeowners or windstorm policy, we’ll supply a detailed inspection report, photographs, and an itemized estimate you can forward to your insurer. We can also meet with the adjuster on-site to ensure all legitimate damage is documented, but you are never locked into using us for the repair work.
What roofing and siding materials do you recommend for homes near the ocean?
For roofing, we often recommend Class-A asphalt shingles with algae-resistant granules, standing-seam aluminum, or stone-coated steel—all of which resist salt corrosion and high winds. For siding, fiber-cement boards, engineered wood with marine-grade sealants, or premium vinyl rated for coastal exposure perform well. During the inspection we’ll assess your existing materials and discuss upgrade options that balance longevity, curb appeal, and budget.
