What to Expect During a Roof Inspection

What Happens When Your Roof Gets Inspected?

Is it your first time hiring an expert to take a look at your roof? A roof inspection should be done, on average, at least once every 6 months. This would change depending on the age of the roof and the weather conditions you usually have in your area. Here is what you can expect from having one:

The inspection

Doing the inspection yourself is not a good idea. It is not as easy or as risk-free as you might think. Climbing your roof is not something you should do without experience or the proper safety gear. You will also find it hard to know what signs to look out for if you don’t even know what you are looking for.

Experts will know. They will know what to do and the steps to follow to ensure that they are safe when they are up on your roof. Before climbing they will go through the process of inspecting the ceiling inside your home for leaks. Then go around the property to look for signs of roof overhangs. Then proceed to climb to check the state of your shingles and so on.

After the inspection

After the inspection, you can ask this expert to tell you the state of your roof and if repairs are needed. Expect to get estimates of the work needed and reasons as to why you should get these repairs. The expert will also inform you if you need to replace your roof or not. You should listen to what the expert has to say and even ask them of the consequences if you do not.
