Serving Los Angeles, California and the surrounding communities.

What is a Roof Certification?

Roof certifications are different than a typical home inspection. Generally speaking, most home inspectors do not perform thorough roof inspections due to the possibility of damage and / or liability. Our roof inspections determine the current condition of the roof in question and provide complete computerized reports on:

• Condition of all roofing materials
  
• Flashing around roof transitions, chimneys, HVAC units, vents, and valleys
  
• Possible necessary repairs
  
• Conditions which could cause a roof leak in the future
  
• Ridgecaps and all drip edge
  
• Soundness of roof drains, downspouts, and gutters
  

How Roof Certifications Help to Sell Homes!

Roof Certifications give potential buyers peace of mind. Sellers can strengthen their home's appeal by including a roof certification during the selling process. Sellers who do not include a roof certification to potential buyers run the risk of higher out pocket costs due to higher contigency allowances given for roof repairs to be made later by the buyer's roofer.

The primary purposes of a roof certification is to:

• Disclose the condition of a roof and it's estimated minimum remaining life expectany
• Inform potential buyers of the current condition of the roof
  
• Allow sellers to make necessary repairs and certifiy their roof's longevity to potential buyers

Everyone in the real-estate community knows it is critical to be able to count on your roof inspector to give you a quick, accurate, and detailed roof inspection report. Our roofing inspectors have knowledge of all types of roof material on the market today. We'll estimate the age of the existing roofing system, locate and identify all deficiencies (if any), as well as, give an estimated life expectancy for the roof. We provide a roof inspection report on our standard inspection report form via email within 24 hours of inspection, sooner in some cases.

The vast majority of leaks found are due to:

• Missing Shingles
• Broken Roofing Tiles
• Cracked Flashing
