When should you consider a roof inspection?
Most roof problems start long before a leak shows up. Small issues build up over time and repairs don’t always explain the full picture. It’s easy to feel unsure about what your roof actually needs. A quick inspection helps you catch problems early and understand what’s going on before damage spreads. You should consider a roof inspection when:
- Your roof is around 15 to 20 years old
- You’ve noticed small leaks or stains in the ceiling
- The same problem keeps returning
- You want peace of mind about your roof
A simple check can help you get ahead of problems and avoid the stress of not knowing what’s happening above your home.
An inspection now can save you from major repairs later!
A Full Examination of Your Roof’s Current Condition
Roofs across the Bronx have been patched, repaired, and layered over the years, and only someone familiar with these systems can understand what’s happening. Our thorough assessment gives you clarity without relying on assumptions, especially when the roof has a history you don’t fully know. Our roof inspection looks at:
- How the roof feels and responds when walked
- The seams, edges, and transition areas
- How water moves or settles across the roof's surface
- Areas that feel soft, uneven, or stressed
- Moisture buildup where it shouldn't be
Once we’ve gone through the roof, we’ll walk you through what we found. If something stands out, we’ll show you photos so you’re not relying on anyone’s word for it.
Types of Bronx Roofs We Inspect
Roofs across the Bronx come in all forms, and we’re familiar with the issues that tend to show up in each style.
Flat Roof Inspection
Flat roofs are common across the Bronx, and most of the issues start with drainage. During an inspection, we look closely at seams, ponding water, old patches, and any soft areas that may signal trapped moisture. Even small changes in the surface can reveal bigger problems underneath.
Shingle Roof Inspection
Shingle roofs show wear in very specific ways. We check for missing or lifted shingles, soft spots from past leaks, and any areas where the roof decking may be weakening. Shingle roofs often tell their story through patterns, and we look for the ones that stand out.
Slate Roof Inspection
Slate roofs last a long time, but they still need careful attention. We look for slipped or cracked tiles, worn flashing, and stress points around chimneys or valleys. Slate doesn’t show problems the same way shingles do, so the inspection takes a slower, more detailed approach.
Metal Roof Inspection
Metal roofs are durable but can develop issues around seams, fasteners, and areas where the panels move with temperature changes. We look for rust, loose fasteners, lifted edges, and anything that affects how well the panels shed water.
Top Warning Signs of a Failing Roof
Spot the signs early to prevent costly damage:
- Stains on ceilings
- Ponding water
- Cracks or blisters
- Separated seams
- Interior mold or mildew
- Loose flashing
- Increased energy bills
- Visible wear and tear

FAQs
Common Questions About Roof Inspections
How long does a roof inspection take?
Most inspections take around 45 minutes to an hour. It depends on the size of the home and what we find once we get up there. We inspect carefully so nothing gets missed.
Do I need to be home during the inspection?
It’s helpful but not required. If you’re not home, we’ll still complete the assessment and review everything with you afterward, including photos.
Will you go on the roof or just look from the ground?
We get on the roof whenever it’s safe to do so. A proper inspection needs a hands-on look at the surface, seams, and weak points. A ground-only check doesn’t tell you enough.
What will I receive after the inspection?
You’ll get a clear breakdown of what we found, photos of anything that needs attention, and an estimate for any repairs. If the issue can be fixed, we’ll point you to our roof repair options. If the roof is near the end of its life, we’ll explain what a roof replacement would involve.
Can you inspect flat roofs and older Bronx buildings?
Absolutely! Most roofs in the Bronx are flat or low slope, and many buildings have layers of past repairs. We work on these roofs every day and know how to read the seams, patches, and drainage patterns that matter. Older buildings are not a problem. They simply need a slower, more careful approach, and that is exactly what we do.
