Roof Inspection

While your home’s foundation and walls support the home, your roof is ultimately what protects you. If your roof is in bad shape, then it can’t protect you to its full extent. You may not know if your roof needs repairs or replacement. To identify that, you’ll need a roof inspection. If you’ve noticed curling or cracked shingles or if your ceiling or wall leaks after rain, you may need an inspection. Additionally, if you are buying or selling a house, you will want to get a roof inspection. Read on to learn more about Blue Fox’s roof inspection services.

Buying or Selling a House – You’ll Want a Roof Inspection

Home inspectors are not usually roof inspection experts. While they will note any obvious surface issues they can see on your roof, many home inspectors usually recommend a separate roof inspection whenever they notice a problem.

Renewing Home Insurance Policy or Changing Insurance Company – You’ll Need a Roof Inspection

Before renewing your insurance policy or changing your homeowners insurance company, it’s wise to get roof inspection report. If your roof sustained storm damage while under the protection of one insurer, it’s best to have it repaired or replaced while you’re still that insurer’s client.

Missing, Loose or Curled Shingles – You Should Get a Roof Inspection

Loose roof tiles can wreak havoc on your home and be a signal that major damage and larger problems are on the horizon, such as water damage, mold, rotting, and the depreciation of home value.

Roof Leaks and Ceiling stains – A Roof Inspection Will Tell You Why

If you notice stains on your ceiling, it is most likely that you have an active roof leak. Even one loose or missing shingle can let water and moisture into your house. Leaks can rot the wood in your home, damage your appliances, furniture, ceilings, walls, and insulation fast! And mold can start growing in just one day, resulting in expensive cleanup costs and exposing you and your family to health problems you want to avoid.

The Inspection

Blue Fox’s experienced roofers thoroughly inspect your roof from both the exterior and the interior. We start from the inside and check for any sign of leaks and water damage. Then we inspect the eaves and roof overhangs for any sign of trouble.

Your expert inspector then climbs up on the roof to check for the following:

• Broken Shingles
• Clogged roof valleys
• Clogged gutters
• Debris and vegetation on the roof
• Cracked or failing seals like pipes, plumbing vents, and attic vents

Post-Inspection

The result of the inspection greatly depends on the condition of your roof. If repairs are needed, we give you a written and precise estimate for the repairs. If no repairs are needed, we prepare a written inspection report for you.

After a Storm

Even if you didn’t observe any damage, having your roof inspected after a major storm is always a smart thing to do. Don’t climb up the roof to check for yourself, Blue Fox Roofing and Renovations has the knowledge, experience, expertise, and equipment to do it safely.

The importance of your roof can’t be emphasized enough. Protect you and your family’s health and safety, prioritize keeping your roof in good shape.
