Do you know when your roof was last inspected? If it’s been more than a year since you scheduled a licensed roofing inspection, now is the time to get this important work done.
Felgemacher Roofing & Siding serves the greater Buffalo, NY, and Rochester, NY, regions with a full menu of roofing services, including routine and emergency roof inspections.
Inspections Spot Early Trouble with Your Roof
A home’s roofing can begin to suffer damage before anyone in the house notices it. Problems below the shingles, such as damage to the underlayment and decking, can progress for years without being detected.
This is why a proper roof inspection is so critical. Our roofing technicians have the necessary strategies and equipment that allow us to see what the average homeowner can’t and spot trouble before it gets out of hand.
How We Approach a Roof Inspection
We start with a visual roof inspection, using our trained eyes to spot telltale signs of issues in various parts and materials of the roof. We also use infrared technology and drones to more closely inspect the roof for evidence of deterioration and damage.
Key roof inspection tasks include:
- Assessing the structural integrity of the roof’s underlayment and decking
- Checking for signs of water intrusion at any point(s) within the roof structure
- Inspecting the roof flashing and rain gutters
- Looking closely at the home’s interior and exterior walls for signs of water damage
- Checking the chimney and the flashing that surrounds it
- Assessing the condition of rooftop equipment and exhaust ventilation components
How to Tell if Your Roof Needs to Be Looked At
You can watch for common signs of roof damage and water intrusion that signal the need for a roof inspection and repair work.
Pay attention to:
- Sagging areas within the roof
- Damaged or missing shingles
- Water stains on walls or ceilings
- Water in the fireplace’s firebox
With older roofs, you’ll want to perform visual inspections more frequently and report your findings to us.
