What a Roof Inspection Covers
A roof inspection involves a thorough review of every layer of your roofing system. We check shingles for granule loss, curling, or cracking. Flashing around chimneys and vents gets a close look. We also examine the decking for rot or sag. Gutters and downspouts are cleared and checked for proper drainage. The goal is to spot weak points before water seeps in.
We climb onto the roof, not just eyeball it from the driveway. On a recent inspection in Chambersburg, we found a small puncture near a vent boot that would have leaked during the next nor'easter. That's the kind of detail a ground-level look misses.
When You Need an Inspection
Schedule a roof inspection after a severe storm, especially with hail or high winds. Trenton gets its share of thunderstorms and nor'easters, so damage is common. Also get an inspection if you notice stains on ceilings, missing shingles, or granules in the gutters. If your roof is over 15 years old, an annual check is wise.
Ice dams are another trigger. When snow melts and refreezes at the eaves, water can wick up under shingles. An inspection after a cold winter catches that damage early.
Our Inspection Process
We start with a ground assessment, looking for obvious issues. Then we walk the roof, checking each course of shingles. We use self-adhered membrane samples to test sealant quality. We check for exposed fasteners, overdriven nails, and gaps around pipes. We inspect the attic for signs of water intrusion or poor ventilation.
After the walkthrough, we give you a clear report with photos. You'll know exactly what's wrong and what can wait. No pressure, just facts.
Most inspections take about an hour. We schedule them at your convenience, including evenings and weekends.
How Much It Costs
A roof inspection from our Trenton roofing contractor team is free when you request it through our website or by phone. That's right — no charge, no obligation. If we find issues, we'll give you a written estimate for repairs. If your roof is fine, we'll tell you that too.
Some companies charge $100 to $300 for an inspection. We don't. We'd rather earn your trust and your business when the time comes.
