Understanding Roofing Inspections

Larry Walty II • April 23, 2021

Your roof is your home’s number one protection against the elements so it only makes sense that you want to keep ahead of all your  roof repair  and maintenance needs. Unfortunately, remembering your scheduled roofing inspections can be challenging. In fact, many homeowners don’t call their local roofers unless something is already wrong with their roof.

As it is, inspections and maintenance is a vital part of taking good care of your roof and it’s important to make sure that these are done regularly to spot potential problems and nip them in the bud. But what actually happens during a roof inspection? Let our experts at Larry Walty Roofing walk you through a typical inspection and show you what you can expect from this service.

The Best Time to Inspect Your Roof

Ideally, you want to have your local residential and  commercial roofing contractors  come and check your roof at least once every season. However, you can also choose to only do it once or twice a year, typically at the beginning of spring or fall. During this time, the weather is almost always cooperative and inspections can be finished with as little problems as possible.

Can You Inspect Your Own Roof?

When you contact your local roofers for an inspection, they can check parts of your roof that may not be accessible to you. First, the roofer will walk around your property and look for any visible signs of trouble. Then they will check the interior components of your roof for damage or water penetration. There’s no reason you can’t do visual inspections, but if you want a thorough checkup, it’s best to leave this job to the professionals.

Maintenance Agreements

Ask your local residential and  commercial roof repair  experts if they offer maintenance agreements and programs. This way you no longer have to keep track of your scheduled visits and you never miss any important appointment ever again.
