Roof Inspection in Katy

Roof inspectors look for damage to your roof and anything that may cause future damage. This includes roof leaks, broken shingles, cracked sealant, moss, debris, standing water, and broken flashing.

A thorough roof inspection will take place on the ground, on the roof, and in your attic if there is an access point. The roof inspector will note the damage they find and walk you through any needed repairs.

A roof inspection helps you catch small problems before they grow bigger. When you can see leaks on your ceiling, you may already have much damage.

An annual roof inspection is ideal, but you can do it less frequently if your roof is under 5 years old and hasn’t been exposed to extreme weather.

This depends entirely on negotiations, but typically, the seller pays for roof repairs or adjusts the home price to cover the repair cost.

1. Review your insurance policy to see if the damage is covered. If it is, your insurer may cover part or all of the roof replacement cost.
2. Document the damage in writing and pictures. Pictures help make your situation clear, especially photos with timestamps.
3. Check the age of your roof. Roofs under 10 years old are usually covered by insurance, but older roofs may be limited.
4. Get a professional roofer’s estimate to convince your insurer that repairs are necessary and cost-effective. Storm Guard will assist with your claim and start the repairs quickly.
