Reliable Roof Inspections to Protect What Matters
A professional roof inspection is your first line of defense against costly roof damage. At Certified Roofers, we offer detailed residential and commercial roof inspection services designed to catch potential issues early and extend the life of your roof.
Our certified roof inspectors use a combination of visual assessments, moisture detection, and photo documentation to identify damage that might go unnoticed by the untrained eye. Whether you’re buying a home, filing a claim, or simply practicing preventative maintenance, we’re here to give you peace of mind.

When to Schedule a Roof Inspection
Routine inspections are crucial to ensuring your roof is structurally sound. Industry standards recommend at least one roof inspection every year, or after major storms, hurricanes, or hail events.
According to the National Roofing Contractors Association, early detection through inspections can reduce roof repair costs by up to 50%. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) also emphasizes roof maintenance as a critical step in storm preparedness.
Consider a roof inspection if:
- You notice leaks, missing shingles, or sagging areas
- A storm with strong winds or hail has recently occurred
- You plan to sell or buy a home
- Your roof is over 10 years old
Brands We Work With
What Our Roof Inspections Include
We visually inspect the roofing material (shingles, tiles, metal, etc.), flashing, gutters, soffits, and fascia for signs of wear or damage. We also check for moss, pooling water, and impact damage.
Our team checks attic ventilation, insulation, moisture levels, and signs of roof leaks such as water stains or mold. We ensure there’s no structural damage developing from inside out.
Every inspection includes a detailed set of images to show you the condition of your roof and help with future insurance or repair decisions.
You’ll receive a professional roof inspection report highlighting current issues, expected lifespan, and maintenance recommendations. If repair or replacement is needed, we’ll provide next steps.
Residential and Commercial Roof Inspection Services
We serve homeowners and business owners alike with inspection services tailored to different roofing systems:
- Shingle Roofing Systems – Detect curling, cracking, granule loss, and poor installation
- Flat Roofs (TPO, Bitumen, EPDM) – Assess for punctures, ponding, and membrane damage
- Tile Roofing – Look for broken tiles, flashing problems, or water intrusion
- Metal Roofs – Identify rust, seam issues, and loose fasteners
- Asphalt Shingle Roofs – Evaluate for hail impact or wind damage

Roof Inspection Cost – What to Expect
The average roof inspection cost ranges from $150 to $350, depending on property size and access. Some situations—like drone or infrared inspections—may cost more.
If you proceed with repair or replacement through Certified Roofers, the inspection fee may be credited toward your project. Ask about our free roof inspections for qualifying storm damage claims.
