A focused look at the roof covering, flashing and drainage — and the attic ventilation, insulation and framing beneath it.
The roof and attic work together as a system. A roof and attic inspection evaluates the roof covering, flashing, penetrations, valleys and drainage from the outside, then looks inside the attic at ventilation, insulation, visible framing and decking, and any evidence of leaks or moisture.
North Texas is tough on roofs. Hail, high winds, intense summer heat and sudden storms all take a toll — and damage isn’t always obvious from the ground. A small leak or poorly ventilated attic can quietly lead to rot, mold, damaged insulation and higher energy bills.
Anthony is a Certified Master Inspector with 15 years of experience inspecting Metroplex homes. He documents what he finds with photos so you can see the roof’s condition for yourself.
The roof and attic tell the story of how well a home is protected from the weather.
Shingles or other materials, overall condition, wear and visible storm damage.
Chimneys, vents, skylights, valleys and wall intersections where leaks begin.
Gutters, downspouts and how water is carried away from the home.
Ventilation, insulation, framing, decking and signs of moisture or leaks.
Roof replacement is one of the most expensive repairs a homeowner faces. Knowing a roof’s condition before you buy helps you negotiate and budget for the future.
Attic ventilation matters more than most people realize. In a Texas summer, a poorly ventilated attic can shorten the life of your roof and drive up cooling costs.
For homeowners, a roof and attic inspection after a major storm or before winter is a smart way to catch issues early — before water finds its way inside.
Your roof and attic inspection includes:
When it’s safe and accessible, yes. If a roof is too steep, wet or fragile, Anthony uses other methods to evaluate it and notes any limitations in the report.
Inspectors can describe the roof’s visible condition and wear, but an exact age usually requires records from the seller or roofer.
Anthony looks for visible signs of storm and hail damage and documents what he observes. For an insurance claim, your insurance adjuster or a roofer will make the final determination.
Proper ventilation helps control heat and moisture in the attic, which protects the roof decking, extends the life of shingles and helps keep cooling costs down.
Yes. The roof and attic are part of every comprehensive inspection. A focused roof and attic inspection is a good option when you only need this part of the home evaluated.
