When, Why and How to Schedule a Professional Roof Inspection

How To Schedule A Professional Roof Inspection - A.J. Roofing & Construction

When you’re a homeowner, you know that you have to maintain your house – and part of that is keeping up with the roof. Having periodic roof inspections can help you save money on costly repairs caused by damages that start out small, but how do you know when to schedule a roofing inspection (and how do you do it)?

This guide walks you through when, why and how to schedule a professional roof inspection with the best roofing company in Dallas.

When to Schedule a Professional Roof Inspection

If you see any damage to your roof, or if you’re experiencing leaks inside your home, don’t wait – call a roofing pro to your home immediately. Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against storms and other weather events, and if it’s damaged, the rest of your house is at risk, too.

Under normal circumstances, such as when there haven’t been any major hail storms, high winds and other weather events, and when everything is business-as-usual at home, you should have your roof inspected each year. You can even inspect it yourself if you’re not experiencing any problems with it.

However, there are some big red flags that let you know you need to call a roofing pro right away.

Red Flags That Mean You Need a Roof Inspection ASAP

If you notice any of these issues, you need a roof inspection right away:

  • A sagging roof deck. Many roofs have different degrees of pitch, but all the lines should be pretty straight. If some lines look like they’re sagging, it can indicate a big problem that you need to address right away.
  • Algae growth. Algae growth alone isn’t a sign that you need roof repair, but it does mean there’s moisture present on your roof. Typically, this looks like dark spots or streaks.Algea-Growth-A.J.-Roofing-Construction
  • Damaged shingles. If you have missing shingles, or if your shingles are cracked, curling at the corners are edges, or look “bald” because they’re missing granules, repairing them can save you big bucks. You should call a professional roof inspector to check out how bad the damage is.
  • Leaks inside your home. If your roof is leaking, you need a pro to come out and assess the damage before it gets worse.
  • Light showing through from the attic. If light can get in, so can pests, water and other undesirables. You’ll need to call a roofing expert as soon as possible to make repairs.
  • Shingle granules in your gutters. When you notice shingle granules in your gutters, your roof’s quality is degrading. Those granules are there to fight off the weather and protect your house – and if they’re coming loose from your shingles, the shingles can’t do their job.
