FAQs
Why are regular roof inspections important for Spring City homeowners?
Spring City experiences four distinct seasons, bringing heavy rains, summer heat, and freeze-thaw cycles that can quickly deteriorate roofing materials. A professional inspection spots early signs of damage—such as loose shingles, membrane punctures, or flashing gaps—before they turn into leaks, mold growth, or structural rot. Preventive inspections protect your investment, preserve your warranty, and often save thousands in repair costs.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection in the Spring City area?
For most homes we recommend two inspections per year: once in the spring after winter weather and again in the fall before snow returns. If your roof is over 15 years old, was recently hit by hail or high winds, or you notice attic moisture, schedule an additional assessment right away. Commercial flat roofs may need quarterly check-ups due to higher foot traffic and mechanical equipment.
What does your certified roof inspection include?
Our NRCA-certified specialists follow a 50-point checklist that covers: exterior shingle or membrane condition, flashing integrity, chimney and vent seals, gutter and downspout performance, attic ventilation and insulation levels, moisture readings, and structural decking review using thermal imaging. We provide a photo-documented digital report with repair recommendations, maintenance tips, and an estimated life-expectancy for your specific roof system.
How much does an inspection cost and do you offer free roof checks?
A full residential inspection with written report starts at $129. However, we offer complimentary visual inspections after severe weather events and for real-estate transactions when scheduled through a partner agent. Any paid inspection fee is credited toward repair work we perform within 90 days, effectively making the inspection free if you proceed with the recommended fixes.
Will your inspection report help with my insurance claim?
Yes. Our detailed reports meet or exceed carrier documentation requirements. We highlight storm-related damage, include date-stamped photos, and provide a repair estimate formatted for Xactimate—the software most insurers use. We can also meet on-site with your adjuster to ensure all eligible damage is recognized, streamlining the approval and reimbursement process.
How soon can repairs be scheduled if the inspection finds problems?
Minor issues such as replacing a few shingles or resealing flashing can usually be handled within 24–48 hours of your approval. Larger repairs or full replacements are typically scheduled within one to two weeks, pending material availability and weather. Emergency tarping is available the same day to prevent further water intrusion while we arrange the permanent solution.
