Check your roof conditions the soonest

Even though some images may seem dramatic, we find similar damages during almost any roof assessment. Sometimes it only requires a quick repair, but also it could be too late for a minor fix.

Now, take these problems as conditions to trigger a professional roof inspection, which will lead you to a full assessment including a detailed report.

And if your roofer is accredited and registered, you will receive an estimate to relieve you from such worries that may be valid for your insurance company.

When objects impact your roof, they usually leave marks spotted by trained eyes. Those marks might let you see the asphalt and even fiber hidden under the granules’ protective layer.

Mold or stains on the ceiling or walls
