A professional roof inspection covers every component of your roofing system — not just what you can see from the ground. Aptos Roofing & Maintenance inspectors walk the roof to examine each shingle section for cracking, curling, buckling, and granule loss. We check every flashing point: chimney flashing, step flashing at walls, pipe boots at plumbing vents, vent boots at exhaust fans, and valley channels where water concentrates.
We inspect the roof in three stages. First, we walk the entire surface — checking shingles for wear, flashing for gaps, and all penetrations for seal integrity. Second, we examine the perimeter — drip edge, eave condition, gutter attachment, fascia and soffit condition. Third, we go into the attic — checking ventilation, insulation, and looking for moisture, mold, or daylight showing through the roof deck.
Our Roof Inspection Process
Appointment Setup
We'll confirm your inspection date and time. Let us know the purpose — annual maintenance, home sale, insurance claim, or post-storm — so our inspector brings the right checklist and documentation forms.
Exterior Roof Walk
Top-to-bottom roof walk. Shingles, flashing, ridge, valleys, eaves, penetrations — every component visually and physically inspected. We don't just look; we press, probe, and lift to find hidden failures.
Below-Deck Assessment
Attic inspection: we check ventilation balance (soffit vents vs. ridge vents), insulation depth and condition, and the underside of the roof deck for moisture. Dark stains, mold, or daylight through the sheathing signal active or past water intrusion.
Findings Delivered
Your roof inspection report delivered within 48 hours. Prioritized findings, annotated photos, and repair recommendations. We walk you through the report by phone or in person if you prefer.
