FAQs
Why should I hire a certified roof inspector in Morristown instead of doing it myself?
Certified inspectors have specialized training, manufacturer-approved tools, and up-to-date knowledge of New Jersey building codes. They can spot hidden issues such as moisture intrusion, shingle delamination, and structural weaknesses that untrained eyes typically miss. A professional inspection also produces a written report that satisfies insurance, warranty, and real-estate transaction requirements—documents you can’t create on your own.
What does a standard roof inspection in Morristown include?
Our certified inspection covers a multi-point checklist: (1) exterior walk-around to note drainage and fascia conditions, (2) attic assessment for ventilation and insulation, (3) close-up evaluation of shingles, flashing, vents, and skylights, (4) moisture scan with infrared imaging, (5) photographic documentation of all findings, and (6) a detailed digital report with repair recommendations, estimated life expectancy, and budget guidance.
How often should Morristown homeowners schedule a roof inspection?
We recommend a professional inspection at least once every two years, plus after any major weather event—such as a Nor’easter, hailstorm, or heavy snowfall—that could compromise roofing materials. For newer roofs, biennial checkups help keep warranties valid, while roofs over 15 years old benefit from annual inspections to catch age-related wear early.
How long does the inspection take, and do I need to be home?
Most single-family homes in Morristown take 60–90 minutes to inspect. Larger or complex roofs may take up to two hours. You are not required to be home, but many clients choose to walk the property with our inspector at the end for a live recap. If you can’t be present, we email the full report within 24 hours and are available for a phone or video call to review it.
What certifications do your inspectors hold?
All inspectors are certified through the National Roof Certification & Inspection Association (NRCIA) and OSHA-compliant for safety. Several team members also carry HAAG Residential Roof Inspector certification, which is widely recognized by insurance carriers. These credentials ensure accurate assessments and streamline any subsequent claims or warranty work.
How much does a certified roof inspection cost in Morristown, and is it worth it?
A standard residential inspection starts at $225, with price adjustments for larger homes, steep pitches, or multi-family properties. Considering that early detection of a minor leak (often a $250 repair) can prevent structural rot or mold remediation costing thousands, the inspection typically pays for itself many times over. Additionally, documented inspections can lower insurance premiums and increase resale value.
