Roof inspections aren't just for obvious leaks. If your roof is over 10 years old, you should have it inspected annually. If you're buying or selling a home in Empire, a roof inspection is essential due diligence. If a storm hit your area, an inspection documents damage for insurance claims. Empire Roofing & Maintenance handles all three.
We photograph everything. Every damaged shingle, every corroded flashing point, every blocked vent. Your inspection report includes annotated photos keyed to a roof diagram so you can see exactly where each issue is and how urgent it is. No guesswork, no vague summaries.
Our Roof Inspection Process
Appointment Setup
Quick scheduling by phone or online. Most Empire inspections booked within 3-5 business days. Storm damage inspections prioritized for faster turnaround.
Exterior Roof Walk
Full exterior roof walk. We check every square foot of shingles, every flashing transition, every penetration seal. Pipe boots squeezed for brittleness. Chimney flashing probed for gaps. Valley channels checked for debris buildup and wear. Photos taken of every finding.
Interior Inspection
We enter the attic to check from below. Soffit vent airflow verified. Ridge vent continuity checked. Insulation levels measured. Roof deck inspected for moisture stains, mold, daylight, or sagging between rafters. This catches problems the surface walk can't see.
Findings Delivered
You receive a written report with annotated photos within 48 hours. Findings prioritized by urgency: critical (active leaks, failed flashing), moderate (worn shingles, marginal ventilation), and low (cosmetic, long-term maintenance). Repair estimates included.
