San Diego Roof Inspections
Let’s keep your roof safe, shall we?
It’s recommended that you have a maintenance inspection done on your roof every year for residential properties and twice a year for commercial properties. This is especially important as your roof ages and approaches its end-of-life.
Roof inspections include checking up on materials, installation and providing professional opinion about remaining lifespan and recommended maintenance activities or repairs.
Roof inspections are also done as part of real estate transactions and can be ordered by real estate agents or buyers who are under contract with you. These are often done to provide a professional certification to mortgage lenders and to buyers that your roof meets a minimum acceptable condition and to provide estimated remaining lifespan.
