When you schedule a roof inspection, here’s what you can generally expect during the process:







Roof inspectors check for existing damage and signs of potential future issues. This includes roof leaks, broken shingles, cracked sealant, moss, debris, standing water, and damaged flashing.
A thorough roof inspection will take place on the ground, on the roof, and in your attic if there is an access point. The roof inspector will document every damage they find and walk you through any needed repairs.
A roof inspection helps you catch small problems before they become big. By the time leaks show on your ceiling, there is often already significant damage.
A thorough roof inspection will take place on the ground, on the roof, and in your attic, if accessible. The roof inspector will document every damage found and explain the needed repairs.
This depends entirely on negotiations, but typically the seller covers roof repairs or adjusts the sale price accordingly.
First, review your policy. If your reason for a new roof isn’t covered, you may need to cover the costs yourself. If it is covered, you’ll likely be able to work with your insurance company to pay for some or all of the roof replacement. Be sure to document the damage thoroughly, with written notes and photos, especially those with timestamps, to provide clear evidence. Also, consider the age of your roof. Roofs less than 10 years old are often covered by insurance, while older roofs may have some limitations. Your next step should be to obtain a professional assessment and an estimate for repairs or replacement, which will help demonstrate to your insurer that the repairs are both necessary and cost-effective. Storm Guard will guide you through filing your claim and beginning the repair process.
