There are many reasons to check the condition of your roof on a regular basis. Over time, shingles may get damaged, stained or covered by moss or debris. A detailed inspection may reveal issues that a few quick repairs and a good cleaning can resolve, which will restore your home’s safety, beauty and curb appeal.
While the repair of a modest number of damaged or missing shingles is usually inexpensive, coping with undetected leaks that infiltrate your roof’s substructure can be much more expensive. The early detection and elimination of roof leaks also protect against interior damage and it may help ensure the continued safety and well-being of your family.
When it is time to sell your home, a well-maintained roof sends a message to prospective buyers that the homeowner truly cared about the property and resale values may benefit. In fact, when homeowners keep up with roof cleaning and maintenance, they help preserve real estate values throughout the entire neighborhood. If you ignore the need for periodic visits a residential home roof inspection may reveal hidden damage that must be addressed before closing.
Finally, regular inspections by qualified roofing professionals may postpone full roof replacements for years to come. Timely inspections and repairs are almost always the best solutions.
What To Expect From Residential Inspection Work
What exactly does an inspection by a J&S Roofing professional entail? When our technicians arrive for a residential home roof inspection, they begin by inspecting shingles and flashing from the ground. They note any visible damage. Next, they climb up to the roof to take a closer look at all roof components. Any evidence of damage or deterioration is noted. After your inspection is completed, we will meet with you to review our findings and give you an estimate for any necessary repairs.
