FAQs
What does your complimentary roof inspection in Oak Ridge include?
Our no-cost inspection starts with a full visual survey of all roof surfaces, flashing, vents, skylights, chimneys, and gutters. We document shingle or membrane wear, hail or wind impact, ponding water, and signs of leaks in the attic. You receive photos, a written condition report, and clear repair or maintenance recommendations—at no charge and with no obligation.
Why is a professional roof inspection important for Oak Ridge homes?
East Tennessee’s weather swings—summer UV, sudden thunderstorms, winter ice, and occasional hail—accelerate roof aging. A professional inspection can catch loose shingles, compromised flashing, and hidden moisture before they become interior leaks or structural damage. Early detection saves money, extends roof life 5-10 years, and protects your property value.
How quickly can I schedule the free inspection and how long will it take?
Most inspections are booked within 48 hours of your call or online request, and emergency storm checks can often be handled the same day. The on-site portion usually takes 30-60 minutes for an average single-family roof, followed by a short review of findings with you. Large or complex roofs may take slightly longer.
Does a complimentary inspection obligate me to buy repairs from you?
Absolutely not. The inspection, report, and consultation are 100 % free of charge and commitment. If repairs are needed, we’ll give you written estimates you can compare with other contractors. Many customers choose us for our transparency and local reputation, but the decision is entirely yours.
How do I know whether I need a repair or a full roof replacement?
During the inspection we evaluate age, shingle granule loss, substrate condition, ventilation, and leak history. If damage is localized—like a few missing shingles or a small flashing failure—a targeted repair is usually sufficient. When more than 30 % of the roof is deteriorated, the decking is compromised, or the roof is nearing its rated life (typically 20-25 years for asphalt shingles), a replacement is the cost-effective choice. We explain the pros, cons, and expected lifespan of each option so you can decide with confidence.
Can you help with insurance claims for storm-related roof damage?
Yes. If our inspection reveals hail, wind, or fallen-limb damage, we’ll provide photo evidence and a detailed report formatted for insurers. We can meet with your adjuster on site, clarify code requirements in Oak Ridge, and supply a line-item estimate in Xactimate or your carrier’s preferred format. This advocacy often speeds approval and ensures you receive the full benefits of your policy.
