Can Property Owners Get a Free Roof Inspection?

create • Jun 15, 2021

Are you in need of a roof repair or installation for your home or business? If so, you are probably considering a roofing company that can offer a free roof inspection. However, if you have the “you get what you pay for” mindset, you may be inclined to believe that free roof inspections are too good to be true. Note that in the roofing industry, this is the norm. Most reputable roofing companies offer free roof inspections to their customers.

Are the Results of a Free Roof Inspection Trustworthy?

We say that depends on the company and the circumstances following the offer for inspection. Consider the following scenarios.

Scenario 1: A recent storm has damaged roofs in your neighborhood, and a roofer knocks on your door to offer a free inspection. He may present you with a business card but does not have any other information to validate his expertise. For example, there are no online reviews or neighbors with whom he has serviced. He also does not have a license or insurance. In this case, we say beware.

Scenario 2: You notice an issue with your roof and contact a reputable local roofing company like Modtek to schedule a free roof inspection. We provide you with an in-depth and unbiased assessment, a detailed report on the condition of your roof, and offer an inspection on any concerning issues that need attention. We also provide you with a link to our Website, as well as a link to Homeadvisor and Google reviews. Lastly, we offer a list of references upon request. Local roofers like Modtek, that are willing to provide in-depth information regarding expertise and customer satisfaction are the type of companies you can trust.

Reasons property owners request free roof inspections.

The National Roofing Contractors Association recommends checking your roof at least twice a year to keep a roof in top condition. Nonetheless, many homeowners and commercial property owners fail to take advantage of a free roof inspection until the following problems are detected:

  • Shingle pieces or mineral granules from asphalt found on the ground or gutters.
  • Staining on the interior ceilings or walls. The roof’s underlayment may be allowing moisture into the property.
  • Leaks in the attic after a rainstorm.
  • The presence of outside light in the attic.
  • Higher energy bills indicating cool or warm air leaking out through the
  • The insurance company has noted that the roof requires an inspection for continued coverage.

**We recommend our customers take a proactive approach and inspect their roof on a regular basis.
