FAQs
Why are regular roof inspections important in Morristown?
Morristown experiences four distinct seasons, including humid summers, heavy spring rains, and cold winters with freeze-thaw cycles that can stress roofing materials. A professional inspection uncovers small issues—such as lifted shingles, deteriorated flashing, or clogged valleys—before they evolve into leaks, mold growth, or structural damage. Regular inspections protect your home, preserve the roof’s life span, and help you avoid costly emergency repairs.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection?
Most homes and commercial properties in Morristown benefit from a professional inspection twice a year: once in the spring after winter weather and again in the fall before freezing temperatures return. You should also schedule an inspection after extreme events like hail, high-wind thunderstorms, or falling branches, even if you don’t see obvious damage from the ground.
What does your roof inspection include?
Our comprehensive inspection covers: (1) exterior visual assessment from the ground and on the roof surface; (2) close examination of shingles, tiles, or metal panels for cracks, warping, or granular loss; (3) evaluation of flashing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and wall junctions; (4) gutter and downspout condition and drainage flow; (5) attic inspection for proper ventilation, insulation, and signs of moisture or pest intrusion; (6) photographic documentation and a detailed written report with repair or maintenance recommendations.
Will a roof inspection affect my warranty or insurance coverage?
No—routine inspections actually help you maintain manufacturer and installer warranties by documenting that you have cared for the roof properly. For insurance purposes, our detailed reports create a dated record of the roof’s condition, making the claims process smoother if storm damage occurs later. Some insurers even offer premium discounts when you can show proof of ongoing professional inspections.
How long does a typical roof inspection take, and is it disruptive?
For an average single-family home, the on-site portion of the inspection usually takes 45–90 minutes. Larger or more complex roofs may take up to two hours. Our team uses ladder safety practices, protects landscaping, and keeps noise to a minimum. You don’t have to be present on the roof; we’ll review findings with you afterward using photos and a clear, written report.
What happens if you find problems during the inspection?
If we discover issues, we will categorize them as urgent, moderate, or maintenance-related. You’ll receive a detailed estimate for any recommended repairs along with alternative solutions and timelines. Minor fixes, such as replacing a few shingles or sealing small flashing gaps, can often be scheduled quickly. For larger projects, we’ll help you understand costs, material options, and permitting requirements in Morristown, and we can coordinate directly with your insurance company if a claim is warranted.
