What Gets Checked During a Roof Inspection

A roof inspection in Springport or Central Michigan involves walking the roof surface when safe to do so, checking shingle condition, looking for lifted or missing tabs, and inspecting all flashing around chimneys, vents, and roof valleys. You will receive a written report with photos that show any issues found, including granule loss, nail pops, or areas where water is likely to penetrate during the next heavy rain.

After the inspection, you will know whether your roof is in good shape, needs minor repairs, or is nearing the end of its expected life. The report also notes whether your attic has proper ventilation, which directly affects how long your shingles will last and whether ice dams are likely to form in winter.

Inspections do not include repairs, but they do provide clear next steps if issues are found. Regional weather-related problems like wind damage and freeze-thaw wear are identified based on local knowledge of what fails first in Michigan. This prepares you for the questions that often come up before scheduling.
