A professional roof inspection typically involves a thorough evaluation of the roof’s condition and performance. Here are some of the things you can expect from a professional roof inspection:
The inspector may begin by inspecting the interior of the home or building, looking for signs of water damage, leaks, and structural problems that may be related to the roof including the rafters, trusses, and other components to ensure that they are sound and properly constructed.
The inspector will then move to the roof and inspect the exterior, looking for signs of wear and tear, damage, and missing or damaged shingles, tiles or other roofing materials.
Flashings are the metal pieces that are installed to prevent water from seeping into the roof’s joints and seams. The inspector will examine the flashings for signs of damage, corrosion or other issues.
The inspector will also evaluate the gutters and downspouts to ensure that they are functioning correctly and not clogged with debris.
The inspector will check the roof’s ventilation system to make sure that it is adequate to prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to mold growth and other problems.
If there is a chimney, the inspector will inspect it to ensure that it is properly constructed, in good condition, and free of obstructions.
After the inspection is complete, the inspector will typically provide a detailed report of their findings and recommendations for any necessary repairs or maintenance. This report can be very helpful in identifying potential problems early on and preventing costly repairs in the future.
