Overview

What We Do

Most people only think about their roof when it leaks. By then, the damage has been progressing for months or years. A proper inspection catches the eight common failure points before they become emergencies — and provides documentation that's invaluable for insurance, real estate transactions, and warranty claims.

  • 20+ years serving Santa Clara, Alameda, San Mateo, and surrounding counties
  • Fully licensed (CSLB #1092531), bonded, and insured
  • Manufacturer-certified installers for major roofing brands
  • Written warranties on workmanship and materials

Everything You Should Know

What We Inspect, and Why

A complete inspection covers: field condition (granule loss, blistering, cupping); penetrations (vents, pipes, skylights, HVAC curbs); flashing (sidewalls, chimneys, valleys); gutters and downspouts; ridge and hip caps; attic ventilation; and visible interior signs (stains, sagging, daylight). Background on the broader practice is on the Wikipedia article on home inspection.

Real Estate and Insurance Inspections

If you're buying a home, the general home inspector will note the roof but rarely walk it. A dedicated roof inspection from a licensed contractor carries more weight in negotiation. The HUD 203(k) program and most FHA-backed loans require roof life verification — we provide the documentation in the format underwriters need.

After the Inspection

Most inspections produce a prioritized list: items requiring action now, items to address within 12 months, and items to monitor. Action items usually fall into repairs; monitoring items fold into a maintenance plan; end-of-life findings lead to a conversation about replacement or restoration.

FAQ

Common Questions

How often should I have my roof inspected?

Annually for most properties. Twice annually for commercial. After any major storm event.

Can you inspect without walking on the roof?

Drone inspection covers 90% of what walk-on covers, with zero damage risk. We add walk-on inspection when conditions require it.

Is the inspection free?

Initial estimate inspections are free for repair or replacement quotes. Standalone documented inspections (for real estate, insurance, warranty) are a flat fee.
