FAQ

Roof Inspection: common questions

How long does a roof inspection take?

Usually under an hour for a typical home, a little longer if the roofer also checks the attic.

Should I get my roof inspected after a storm?

Yes, after hail or strong wind. Many problems, like bruised or lifted shingles, can't be seen from the ground.

How often should a roof be inspected?

Once a year is a good habit, plus after major storms. Older roofs benefit from more frequent checks.

What does a roofer look for during an inspection?

Shingles, flashing, vent boots, ridge caps, signs of leaks in the attic, ventilation and the condition of the decking.

Do you do the inspection yourselves?

No. RingaRoofer is a referral service. The roofing company you speak with does the inspection and agrees the details with you directly.
