We don’t perform quick visual assessments from the ground. Our comprehensive inspection procedures identify current issues, potential problems, and provide actionable recommendations.

Complete Exterior Assessment

We thoroughly inspect all roofing materials, examine shingle condition and granule loss, check metal panel integrity and fasteners, evaluate membrane condition on flat roofs, and assess overall system performance.

Chimney flashing, valley flashing, pipe boots, step flashing, drip edge, and all penetration details receive careful examination to identify current leaks and potential failure points.
