A roof inspection is a report that evaluates the current condition of your roof. The inspector will spot and document any damage, leaks, clogged rain gutters, cracks, or other warning signs.
Roof inspections (and subsequent repairs) are also commonly requested when you’re selling or buying a home, as both the seller and buyer want a professional assessment of the condition of the roof.
Who should perform a Roof Inspection?
The answer is simple, a reputable and experienced roofing contractor. It’s essential to know the difference between a roof inspection performed by a roofing company and one by a home inspector.
Home inspectors do not typically climb on the roof to evaluate it fully, and they are not explicitly looking at your roof and presenting inclusive and focused details.
