Why is it important to have my roof inspected?
Regular roof inspections are extremely important for maintaining the quality of your home. In fact, you can avoid serious problems by catching problems early, especially with older roofs. Even if you have recently had your roof repaired or redone, it is advisable to have a roofing inspection annually because you never know when something unexpected may be affecting the performance of your roof and speeding up the deterioration of your home's roof. Elements such as severe storms, satellite dish installations, or problems with flashing from temperature changes or settling can affect your roof and cause problems if left unattended.
Every year we inspect hundreds of roofs and over the years we have found that many home owners have excessive moisture and leaks that have went unnoticed for years before they started having their roof inspected. Moisture in the attic, caused by poor ventilation, can rot the roof deck, structural wood, and metal components often leading to a buildup of mould that can affect your health. Similarly, slow roof leaks can cause damage inside the walls, floors, and ceilings of your home.
Don't wait until it is too late! Have your roof professionally inspected by our roofing experts and protect your roof, your home, and your wallet from serious problems in the future that could have been easily and affordably prevented.

Weather related elements such as severe wind and hail can cause major damage to your roof's shingles. If you are not sure if your roof was damaged, call us to have one of our roofing experts inspect your roof and property for damage and missing shingles.
Once we finish our inspection we can provide your roof insurance company with a letter reporting our findings.
We all know that it is not fun dealing with roof insurance companies. It is important to record the exact date when the damage occurred and notify your roof insurance company as soon as possible because insurers usually have a time limitation on filing claims for damages caused to your roof.
It is also important to make your own decision when choosing a contractor. Do not let your insurance company persuade you to choose a specific contractor that they recommend. Even though some insurance companies appear to have your best interest at heart, they typically make every effort to minimize their claims and could be recommending a roofing contractor based on the cost rather than skills and experience.
Remember, you have the right to choose your own roofing contractor and should take as much care in doing so as you would if the insurance company was not involved in your roofing repair.
