A roof certification begins with an inspection of the roofing material and underlayment for damage or defect. During the inspection, minor maintenance will be done at no additional cost, such as setting slipped tiles or sealing flashings. If no other work is required in order to certify the roof, the roof certification will be issued at this time with a full report. If other work is required for the certification a proposal with pictures and full descriptions of defects and required work will be prepared. After all roof defects are corrected the roof certification will be issued.
Note: If additional work is required the cost of the inspection/certification will not be added to the additional invoice and will be deducted from the final cost.
We look for signs of deferred maintenance, roofing material failure, improper installation, or out of date installation techniques.
We often find worn shingles, slipped tiles, and cracked sealants at the flashing which can allow water into the home.
We provide you with a detailed written report and roof certification that you can use to help sell your home or to add peace of mind when you purchase a new home!
We can help you determine the lifespan of your roof with our roof certification inspection! Slate roofs can last 100+ years, while tile roofing lasts between 50 and 100 years, and asphalt shingles last between 20 and 40 years.
Yes, we sure can! Solar panels do not typically interfere with the inspection and roof certification process.
