Our roof inspection goal: Empower the building owner with knowledge and a written report that can be their tile roof “owner’s manual” in the future.
When buying a home with a clay or concrete tile roof you want to know the condition and potential repair and maintenance needs of the existing roof. In addition, what type of ongoing maintenance will be most effective for prolonging the look and life of the tile? Home Inspectors are typically limited to looking at the surface of the tile, which has often been cleaned in preparation for the sale. Functional flashing, accessories and underlayment are hidden beneath the tile surface. That is why your home inspector or the American Society of Home Inspectors may refer you to us.
When gathering proposals for a major roof repair or home remodel, differences in the proposals from various roofing contractors can be confusing. Because we restrict our services to inspections, consulting and training, we can provide information and insight to you with no conflict of interest.
Our tile roof inspection report will include information about the tile roofing material, the flashing installation methods used, material degradation if identified, and detailed recommendations for repair work, if needed. In addition we will provide recommendations for ongoing maintenance for the best and most efficient care of the roof. We will also help you find the right roofing contractor to do the work.
We have experience in the following areas:
- Tile roofing inspections for homeowners and homebuyers.
- Tile roofing project management for contractors
- Advice, bid evaluation & recommendations for home owners
- Tile Roof Inspections for manufacturers
