What we check

On the roof, in the attic, and in the gutters.

You usually cannot tell from the ground. Missing shingles, granules in the gutters, a ceiling stain and daylight in the attic all point at different things.

Shingles and metal

Missing, lifted, cracked or worn shingles, and loose fasteners or damaged panels on metal roofs.

Flashing

Chimneys, skylights, walls and vents, where most leaks start.

Valleys and nails

Valleys carry the most water on the roof, and popped nails punch holes in the shingle above them.

The attic

Stains, daylight and soft decking tell us what is happening under the shingles.

Gutters and drainage

Half the "roof leaks" we get called out to are water going somewhere it should not. Gutters →

Storm damage

Photos of wind and hail damage for your insurance. Storm damage →

An honest inspection

We will tell you when you do not need a new roof.

  • Not every roof that gets quoted for replacement needs one. Plenty of our calls end in a repair to the flashing or a valley, for a fraction of the price.
  • We photograph what we find and show you, so you see the problem yourself.
  • A firm number in writing. Line items, not a number scribbled on a business card.
  • No pressure. We would rather talk you out of work you do not need than sell you work you do.

How it works

Three steps, and you know the price before anything starts.

Step 1

You call, we come look

Step 2

We inspect and photograph

Roof, attic and drainage. We show you what we found.

Step 3

You get a straight answer

What is wrong, what it will cost, and what happens if you leave it a year. In writing.
