FAQs
Why is a professional roof inspection important in Townsend’s climate?
Townsend experiences a mix of heavy rain, high winds, and occasional snow or hail, all of which can accelerate wear on shingles, flashing, and underlayment. A professional inspection identifies small problems—like loosened fasteners, lifted shingles, or micro-cracks—before they evolve into leaks, mold growth, or structural damage. Early detection saves money on repairs, protects your insulation and drywall, and can even extend the life of your roofing system by several years.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection for my home or business in Townsend?
For asphalt-shingle and metal roofs alike, we recommend a full inspection at least once a year, ideally in the spring or fall. Additional inspections are wise after severe weather events such as windstorms or hail. Commercial flat roofs with membrane systems benefit from twice-yearly checkups due to their greater exposure to pooling water and foot traffic.
What does your comprehensive roof inspection include?
Our certified inspectors perform a 30-point evaluation that covers attic ventilation, insulation, decking, shingles, flashing, chimneys, skylights, gutters, and downspouts. We use drones for high-resolution imagery of hard-to-reach areas and moisture scanners to detect hidden leaks. Afterward, you receive a digital report with color photos, condition grades, and prioritized repair or maintenance recommendations.
Can a roof inspection help me with insurance claims after storm damage?
Absolutely. We document all storm-related damage, including impact marks, torn shingles, and compromised flashing, with timestamped photographs and written notes that comply with insurer guidelines. Our inspectors can meet with your adjuster on-site to explain the findings, improving the likelihood of fair coverage and speeding up claim approval.
Will the inspection process cause any disruption or damage to my roof?
No. Our team follows a non-destructive protocol: we walk the roof only when shingles are cool to avoid scuffing, use padded ladder stabilizers to protect gutters, and rely on drones for steep or fragile sections. Most residential inspections take roughly 60–90 minutes, and you don’t have to be home for exterior assessments.
What happens if the inspection reveals issues—do you provide repair estimates?
Yes. Your report will categorize each issue as urgent, moderate, or routine maintenance. For urgent and moderate findings, we attach detailed repair proposals that outline scope, materials, timelines, and transparent pricing. If you choose us for the repairs, the cost of the inspection is credited toward the project, giving you seamless service from diagnosis to completion.
