What we check on a Raleigh roof inspection

• Shingles: lifted, creased, cracked or missing shingles, granule loss and worn spots.
• Flashing: chimneys, walls, valleys and skylights, where most leaks start.
• Pipe boots and vents: cracked boots and failing seals around plumbing vents, exhaust and ridge vents.
• Gutters and drainage: clogs, loose runs and overflow that backs water under the roof edge.
• Decking signs: soft spots, sagging and rot along eaves and valleys.
• Attic: ventilation, water stains and damp insulation where we can access it.

You get photos of what we found and a plain answer: no work needed, a repair, or a replacement, with a written estimate if work is recommended.

When to get a roof inspection

Book one if you see ceiling stains, damp insulation or lifted shingles, after a strong wind, hail or tropical storm, before winter, before hurricane season, or when a roof is getting older and you want to plan ahead. We recommend an inspection once a year for most homes. Our hurricane season roof prep checklist covers what to check before and after a storm.

Selling or buying a home in Raleigh?

A roof question can hold up a closing. We inspect roofs for sellers before listing, for buyers during due diligence, and for agents who need a clear answer on a roof flagged by a home inspector. You get photos and a plain-language summary, and if a repair is needed we can quote it. Read more on roof inspections before selling a home in Raleigh.

After-storm roof inspections

Wind and hail damage is not always visible from the ground. After a storm we look for lifted, creased or missing shingles, hail marks, damaged flashing and dented gutters, and document it with photos. If you decide to file a claim, we can meet your adjuster at the home; your insurer decides coverage. See storm damage repair, wind damage roof repair and roof insurance claims.

What happens after the inspection

If the roof is sound, we tell you so. If it needs work, the next step is usually roof repair or roof leak repair. If the roof is near the end of its life, we explain repair versus replacement and, for roof replacement, offer the Owens Corning Platinum warranty with 25 years of non-prorated coverage. We also inspect metal roofs, flat and low-slope roofs, gutters and siding.

What Raleigh homeowners say

I had an issue with my roof that was found in a home inspection. I was referred to Roof Revivers by my realtor. They were excellent to work with throughout the process. Kellan was on time, knew what he was doing, did a thorough repair and was very professional and easy to work with. I would highly recommend Roof Revivers!

I had roof checked due to seeing some lifted shingles. Nick came on time, was courteous and informative. He did some light repair and went above and beyond on this inspection. I would recommend to anyone.

We had roof and siding damage on our house caused by a hail storm. We called roof revivers and Zeke with roof revivers came out and did a full inspection on the roof and siding. We contacted our insurance and Zeke came out again with the insurance company and explained everything to us about the process for repairing the house. Although hail damage is never a fun process Zeke and Roof Revivers made the process as seamless as possible and I have already recommended them to neighbors and friends. Thanks for the great work and would use Roof Revivers again with our roofing and siding repair needs.
