FAQs
Why is a multi-point roof inspection important for Winfield homeowners?
A systematic, multi-point inspection examines every critical component of your roofing system—shingles, flashing, underlayment, ventilation, decking, gutters, and penetrations. In Winfield’s climate, freeze–thaw cycles, hail, and high winds can cause hidden damage that isn’t visible from the ground. Catching small issues early prevents leaks, mold growth, structural deterioration, and costly emergency repairs down the road, while also protecting manufacturer warranties and maintaining your home’s resale value.
What does your Winfield multi-point checklist include?
Our certified inspectors follow a 30-plus-item checklist tailored to Mid-Kansas roofing. Key steps include: (1) exterior walk-around for sagging or uneven planes; (2) close-up shingle inspection for granule loss, cracks, hail bruising, and thermal splitting; (3) flashing and sealant check at chimneys, skylights, walls, and valleys; (4) gutter and downspout evaluation for proper slope and debris buildup; (5) attic assessment for insulation levels, moisture stains, and ventilation airflow; (6) fastener and decking integrity test with moisture meters; (7) inspection of soffit, fascia, and drip edge; and (8) photographic documentation of every finding.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection in Winfield?
We recommend a professional inspection at least once every two years for asphalt or architectural shingle roofs, and annually for older roofs (15+ years) or specialty materials such as wood shake or metal. Additionally, schedule an inspection after any significant hail, wind, or ice event that passes through Cowley County. Regular inspections meet most insurance carriers’ preventive-maintenance requirements and keep small problems from compounding.
How long does the inspection take and will it disrupt my day?
A standard single-family home in Winfield generally takes 60–90 minutes to inspect thoroughly. Larger or steep-slope roofs may require up to two hours. Our team uses safety harnesses and low-noise equipment, so disruption is minimal. You can stay inside, run errands, or accompany the inspector—whatever is most convenient. We coordinate precise appointment windows and text you when we’re en route.
Will I receive a written report and estimate after the inspection?
Yes. Within 24 hours you’ll receive a digital, photo-rich report detailing each checklist item’s condition, a color-coded priority rating, and maintenance recommendations. If repairs or replacement are needed, we attach a transparent estimate with material options, timelines, and warranty coverage. This documentation helps you budget accurately and satisfies real-estate disclosure or insurance requirements.
What if the inspection uncovers storm damage—do you help with insurance claims?
Absolutely. If we document hail impact, wind-lifted shingles, or punctures, our Haag-certified inspector notes each item with date-stamped photos and a square-foot measurement of affected areas. We can meet your adjuster on-site, explain the findings in industry terminology, and submit the paperwork your carrier requires. This advocacy streamlines the claims process, maximizes coverage, and ensures approved scope aligns with code requirements for the Winfield area.
