FAQs
How often should I schedule a professional roof inspection in Rutledge?
For most homes in Rutledge, we recommend a professional roof inspection at least once every 12–18 months. The region’s mix of summer storms, winter freezes, and year-round humidity can accelerate wear on shingles, flashing, and decking. If your roof is over 10 years old, or if you’ve recently experienced hail, high winds, or heavy debris impact, schedule an inspection right away even if it hasn’t been a full year.
What does a Roof Health roofing inspection include?
Our comprehensive inspection examines every critical component of your roofing system. We visually assess shingles, tiles, metal panels, or membrane surfaces for cracks, blisters, granule loss, and punctures. We check flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys for rust or separation, inspect gutters and downspouts for clogs or sagging, evaluate attic ventilation and insulation levels, identify moisture intrusion with infrared scanning, and document structural issues in decking or rafters. You receive a detailed digital report with photos, findings, and recommended next steps.
How much does a roof inspection cost?
A standard residential roof inspection in Rutledge typically ranges from $149 to $249, depending on roof size, pitch, and accessibility. If you pair the inspection with annual maintenance—such as gutter cleaning, minor sealant touch-ups, or skylight resealing—we offer bundled discounts. Commercial or multifamily inspections are quoted individually after a brief phone assessment or site visit.
What signs indicate I should call for an inspection sooner?
If you notice missing or curled shingles, persistent roof leaks or water stains on ceilings, granules in downspouts, sudden spikes in energy bills, moldy attic smells, or visible sagging along the roofline, contact us immediately. Early detection often means smaller, less expensive repairs and prevents structural damage to sheathing, insulation, and interior finishes.
Will you help me with insurance claims if storm damage is found?
Yes. Our team is experienced in documenting storm-related damage for insurance carriers operating in Tennessee. We provide photo evidence, written assessments, and an itemized repair estimate that complies with insurer requirements. Upon request, we can meet with your adjuster on-site to ensure all legitimate damage is acknowledged and properly valued.
How long does a typical inspection take and do I need to be home?
Most single-family roof inspections take 60–90 minutes. You don’t have to be home for the exterior portion, but we recommend being present if you’d like us to check attic ventilation or interior ceiling stains. If you can’t be there, we’ll email or text our full digital report—including photos, infrared imagery, and recommendations—within 24 hours, and follow up by phone to answer questions.
