Roof Certification
What is it?
A roof certification is a written statement issued by a licensed roofing contractor or inspector after a thorough inspection of your roof. It confirms the current condition of the roof and estimates how long it’s expected to remain in good, working condition. Roof certifications are often required by insurance companies, lenders, and homebuyers, especially during real estate transactions.
We Inspect:
- The entire roofing system, including shingles, tiles, flashing, vents, and gutters.
- Check for signs of damage, leaks, sagging, or deterioration.
- Inspect the roof deck (from the attic when possible) for structural soundness.
- Evaluate the installation quality and estimate the remaining useful life of the roof.
Benefits:
- Confidence for Buyers & Sellers
Provides peace of mind in real estate transactions by confirming roof integrity. - Insurance Savings
Some insurers require roof certification for coverage or offer premium discounts when a roof is in good condition. - Preventative Care
Identifies small issues before they become big, expensive problems.
What to Expect:
A typical roof certification inspection takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. You will receive a detailed, insurance-ready report, including photos and notes, within 24 hours.
