A professional roof inspection covers every component of your roofing system — not just what you can see from the ground. Glencross Roofing & Maintenance inspectors walk the roof to examine each shingle section for cracking, curling, buckling, and granule loss. We check every flashing point: chimney flashing, step flashing at walls, pipe boots at plumbing vents, vent boots at exhaust fans, and valley channels where water concentrates.
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
Book Online or Call
Quick scheduling by phone or online. Most Glencross inspections booked within 3-5 business days. Storm damage inspections prioritized for faster turnaround.
Exterior Roof Walk
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.
Interior Inspection
Below-deck inspection from the attic. We verify that soffit vents aren't blocked by insulation, ridge vents are continuous, and there's no moisture or mold on the sheathing. Ventilation problems shorten roof life dramatically.
Report & Recommendations
Your roof inspection report delivered within 48 hours. Prioritized findings, annotated photos, and repair recommendations. We walk you through the report by phone or in person if you prefer.
