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 Sharples, a roof inspection is essential due diligence. If a storm hit your area, an inspection documents damage for insurance claims. Sharples Roofing & Maintenance handles all three.
Flashing failures cause most roof leaks, not shingle failures. That's why we check every flashing point: chimney flashing (the #1 leak source), step flashing at wall transitions, counter-flashing at masonry, pipe boots at plumbing vents, and vent boots at exhaust penetrations. We check the sealant condition at each and note any gaps, corrosion, or separation.
Our Roof Inspection Process
Schedule Your Inspection
Quick scheduling by phone or online. Most Sharples inspections booked within 3-5 business days. Storm damage inspections prioritized for faster turnaround.
Surface Inspection
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.
Below-Deck Assessment
Attic inspection: we check ventilation balance (soffit vents vs. ridge vents), insulation depth and condition, and the underside of the roof deck for moisture. Dark stains, mold, or daylight through the sheathing signal active or past water intrusion.
Detailed Report
Detailed inspection report with photos keyed to a roof diagram. Every finding documented with location, severity, and recommended action. Repair cost ranges included so you can budget accurately. Insurance-ready format available.
