What Goes Into the Report
Each section of the report maps to a part of the roof that affects leaks.
Surface Condition
Cracked or displaced tile, worn shingles, split membranes and metal fastener problems are noted with photos.
Roof Features
Chimneys, skylights, vents and wall joints are examined for open seams and failed sealant.
Water Flow
We look at gutters, drains and any areas where water collects or backs up.
Hidden Layers
Where we can see them, edges and exposed underlayment indicate how the layer below is holding up.
Attic Clues
When we can enter the attic, we look for stains, damp insulation and light coming through.
Repair History
Earlier patches are recorded with notes on whether they appear sound.

Mesa Roof Inspection Questions, Answered
Is there a charge for the inspection?
Yes, it is a paid service. Our free offering is the written estimate for repair or replacement work.
What separates an inspection from an estimate?
An inspection describes the roof's condition. An estimate puts a price on specific work, and you can ask for one without the other.
What does an inspection cost?
Call (480) 877-1643 for a quote that reflects the roof type and size. We do not post a set price on this page.
What do I get at the end?
A written report with photos, arranged by roof area, and a note on which items look urgent.
How much of my day does it take?
Most houses take only part of a day, depending on the size, slope and ease of access.
Should I be there?
It is not required, though it helps. We need roof access, and the attic if possible, and we can talk through findings with you.
Is this a good idea before buying in Mesa?
Yes. It gives you an independent record of the roof to use during negotiations or when planning future work.
Will it help me sell my house?
It can. A documented report answers buyer questions and shows you what, if anything, is worth fixing before listing.
When should I book one after a storm?
As soon as you notice damage, hear a drip or want a record, since some problems cannot be seen from the ground.
Can I give the report to my insurance company?
You can share the photos and notes. The insurer decides coverage, and we cannot predict or promise the outcome.
Do you check tile roofs?
Yes, including cracked or shifted tile and the signs that underlayment under it is aging.
What about flat roofs?
We examine seams, blisters, flashing, drains and ponding on low-slope roofs.
Do you actually go up on the roof?
When it is safe and the surface can take it. Otherwise we rely on ladder views and elevated photography.
Will you push me to buy work?
No. The report simply states what we found. A free estimate is available if you want to price the work, with no obligation.
How often should a roof be checked?
Annually and after major storms is a common guideline, with older roofs deserving closer attention.
Can an inspection guarantee no leaks?
No inspection can. We record what can be observed and mark anything that might need more testing.
Is your company licensed?
Yes, our Arizona ROC number is 355034, and the state registrar lists it publicly.
May I give the report to another roofer?
Yes, it belongs to you and any contractor can use it when pricing work.
How does this differ from a home inspector's roof look?
A general home inspection includes a limited roof review, while ours concentrates on the roofing system itself.
How do I schedule?
Call (480) 877-1643 with your address, the roof type and the reason you want the inspection.
