When it comes to roof problems, too many people don’t recognize the urgency in getting a problem fixed promptly. A stain on the ceiling or some loose shingles here and there, they don’t seem like a big deal to laypeople.

Nothing could be farther from the truth!

The thing with roofs is ,even the smallest leak can not only wreak havoc on your house it can be a costly repair. Left untreated, small holes in your roof or missing shingles can cause all kinds of problems all over your house.

From shorting out electrical systems (risking fire) and damaging your homes infrastructure to mold and mildew causing health problems, tracking down and solving the problem quickly is imperative to prevent further damage.

A professional roof inspection is the place to start when you notice a problem with your roof. Besides being free for most, there are a myriad of reasons not to handle this yourself or hand it over to Cousin Vinnie. A professional roof inspection is always a good idea.

Why A Professional Roof Inspection?

As simple as roofs may look, they are highly complicated systems designed specifically to protect your home from moisture. The slightest mistake or problem can throw the entire system out of whack, preventing the roof from doing what it was designed to do. The result is leaks or worse.

The purpose of a professional roof inspection isn’t just to determine how to fix a problem now but also to prevent future problems and assess the general health of the roof.

Even if no problems are found (or the problem is a quick fix), a proper roof inspection will  tell you how much life your roof has left plus you get the added benefit of obtaining a proper certificate of inspection that’s valid for 2 -5 years . This certificate can come in handy for future warranty or insurance claims or even if you decide to sell your home.

Even Home Inspectors Prefer A Roof Contractor For Roof-Specific Inspections

When purchasing a home, many people hire a home inspector to make sure their purchases are solid. While they can point out any obvious problems seen from the ground, they typically don’t get up onto the roof for a full inspection. This is the job of the roof inspection specialist.

When even the professional home inspectors don’t want to mess with the roof, you shouldn’t either.

Roof Inspection Shouldn’t Be Performed By Just Anyone, Including You

For Do-it-yourself’ers and other laypeople, a self roof inspection is not only NOT recommended, it’s strongly discouraged. Walking around on a roof without knowing what you are doing is dangerous not only to your person but to the roof itself.

A properly trained roof inspector will have the training and equipment to safely inspect your home without risk to life or property.   Even those who may be able to pull it off without killing themselves end up missing problems that are clear to a trained eye, defeating the whole process.
