FAQs
Why are regular roof inspections important?
Routine roof inspections help detect minor issues—such as missing shingles, small leaks, or deteriorating flashing—before they escalate into costly repairs or premature replacement. Early identification preserves structural integrity, protects interior spaces from water damage, and extends the service life of your roof, ultimately saving money and reducing unexpected downtime.
How often should I have my roof inspected in Reliance?
In Reliance’s mixed climate, we recommend a professional inspection at least once a year, ideally in the spring or fall. Additionally, schedule an inspection after any major hail, wind, or snow event. Regular annual check-ups combined with post-storm assessments ensure damage is caught quickly and handled under warranty or insurance when applicable.
What does a professional roof inspection include?
Our inspectors perform a comprehensive 20-point evaluation. We examine shingles or other roofing materials for cracks, curling, granule loss, and punctures; inspect flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights; check gutters, downspouts, and drip edges; assess attic ventilation and insulation; scan for moisture intrusion with thermal imaging when requested; and provide photos, findings, and straightforward repair or maintenance recommendations in an easy-to-read report.
Can a roof inspection help lower my insurance costs?
Yes. A documented, professional inspection demonstrates that your roof is well-maintained, which some insurers reward with lower premiums or discounts. Early detection and repair of issues also reduce the likelihood of large claims, preserving your claims history and potentially preventing rate increases. Always share the inspection report with your agent to explore available savings.
Will an inspection disrupt my daily routine or damage my roof?
Not at all. Most residential inspections take 60–90 minutes. Our technicians use low-impact practices—soft-soled shoes, proper ladder placement, and drone or camera poles when possible—to avoid damaging shingles or landscaping. You can remain inside your home, and we clean up any debris before leaving.
What happens after the inspection—do I have to commit to repairs immediately?
No obligation. We provide a detailed report outlining roof condition, estimated remaining life, and recommended actions prioritized by urgency. You’re free to review, seek second opinions, or schedule repairs at your convenience. If you choose us for the work, we’ll supply a transparent quote and timeline; if not, you still have the inspection documentation for future reference.
