How Often Do You Need a Roof Inspection?

Home or business owners should get a roof inspection regularly to ensure the longevity of their roofs and avoid potentially expensive and time-consuming issues. According to the National Roofing Contractors Association’s director of technical services, Mark S. Graham, it is best to inspect your roof at least twice a year, specifically in the fall and spring when the weather is milder. Following these guidelines can be especially important if you have an older roof, one that has a history of leaks or other problems, or if the weather in Northern Virginia has been bad in the past season. 

Our Comprehensive Roof Inspection Checklist

During our Arlington roof inspections, we will check for a variety of telltale signs of issues, ensuring that your residential or commercial roof is in good shape. 

Our inspection checklist includes the following:

• Overall Appearance: This involves looking for obvious signs of aging, damage, or wear and tear. What we notice at this early stage of the inspection can give us a good idea of where to pay close attention as we go more in-depth. 
• Roofing Materials: We check shingles, tiles, and other roofing materials for cracks, blisters, curling, or missing components. We will also watch for moss or algae growth, which can cause materials to deteriorate over time. 
• Structures on the Roof: These include things like chimneys, pipes, skylights, vents, and others. We inspect them to ensure they are not compromising a roof’s strength or leaking. 
• Gutters and Drains: We look out for blockages, cracks, or holes that could lead to water damage to a property’s roof or exterior features.
• Flashing: We check for any cracks or faults in flashing that could allow moisture into a property.
• Soffits and Fascia: Inspecting these areas can reveal issues such as rot, pest infestation, or water damage. Each of these things could compromise the integrity of the entire roofing system.
• Interior Walls and Ceilings: We go inside properties to look for signs of leaks and other issues that we might not have been able to see from the outside.
• Roofing Membrane: For flat roofing membranes, we make sure they are properly sealed and check for tears, holes, abrasions, or gaps.

It is important to note that the above is a general list of the things we examine. We understand that every property we serve is unique, which is why we tailor our roof inspections to the needs and concerns of our individual customers.
