Why You Should Have a Roof Inspection
In a perfect world, roofs would always last as long as they are supposed to and wouldn’t develop problems along the way. But life happens, and weather conditions and other factors can cause problems to roof shingles and structures when least expected. That’s why it’s important to schedule a regular roof inspection by a professional roofing company before problems escalate. Here are some reasons why you should consider scheduling a professional, HAAG certified roof inspection:
Save Costs in the Long Run
Having a HAAG certified roof inspection at least once a year helps you avoid expensive and complicated problems that can develop if initial roof damage is unnoticed or neglected. A regular roof inspection reduces the chances of needing a roof replacement earlier than would otherwise be necessary. Warped, missing, or damaged roof shingles can be replaced before they lead to extensive leaks that could cause expensive water damage to your home. Ultimately, a professional roof inspection can save thousands of dollars, in addition to lots of stress and time down the road.
Spot Weather-Induced Problems Early
A professional roofer should inspect your roof at least once a year no matter what; however, it’s wise to also have a roof inspection after a severe storm or other incident, such as a tree or large limb falling on your roof. A HAAG certified roofer has the experience to spot compromised areas and potential leaks caused by external events before they lead to more serious problems.
Safety First!
A thorough, effective roof inspection must be performed from the roof itself; simply looking at the roof from the ground won’t provide adequate sightlines to all possible problem areas. However, individuals who opt to perform their own “roof inspection” pose significant risk to themselves by climbing onto and traversing their roofs, often with insufficient or inadequate equipment. Why risk injuring yourself or accidentally causing damage to your roof shingles or gutters? Hiring a HAAG certified roofing company for your roof inspection means you stay on the ground while trained professionals do the dirty work. Better safe than sorry!
Simplify Insurance Claims
If you think you may need to file an insurance claim for possible roof damage, a professional roofing inspection is the best way to get the process started.
If you’re unsure what types of roof repairs or replacement are covered by your insurance policy, a roofing company can help you determine the extent of the damage, the type of coverage you qualify for, and assist in filing your insurance claim.
Keep Informed
A professional roof inspection can provide priceless peace of mind. After the inspection, you’ll know whether or not there are any problems or potential problems with your roof, and if so, how exactly to go about fixing them. You’ll have a better idea of the general condition of your roof and how much longer you can expect to go before needing a roof repair or replacement. Often, roof inspections reveal that a roof is in perfectly good shape and needs no repairs—what a great feeling to know your roof is ready to stand up to mother nature and keep your family safe and dry for years to come!
