Roof Inspection Pittsburgh, PA | Free Roof Inspection
Most roofing problems are caught late because the roof was never inspected.
Our Roof Inspection Approach
Most roofing problems are caught late because the roof was never inspected — by the time a homeowner notices a leak, the damage has usually been building for months. We offer free roof inspections with no sales pressure, no obligation, and a written report with photos documenting everything we find. If we find something that needs attention, we tell you honestly whether it's a repair, a watch item, or something that can wait — and we put that assessment in writing.
Annual roof maintenance inspections are the single best thing a Pittsburgh homeowner can do to extend roof life and avoid expensive surprises. A small flashing gap caught in October is a $150 repair. The same flashing gap discovered after a wet winter because water got into the wall cavity is a very different conversation. We recommend annual inspections for roofs over 10 years old, and biannual inspections for roofs over 20 years. We document findings with photos every time so you have a year-over-year record.
Pre-purchase roof inspections are one of the most valuable things a home buyer in Pittsburgh can commission before closing. Roofs are expensive to replace and the condition is not always obvious from a general home inspection. We provide a detailed written report of the roof condition, estimated remaining service life, any items needing immediate attention, and a rough replacement cost range so buyers can negotiate from an informed position.
Storm damage inspections are time-sensitive. After a hail event or high-wind storm locally, damage to shingles, flashing, and gutters is not always visible from the ground. Hail damage in particular shows as dimpling and granule loss that a trained eye catches on the roof but a homeowner will not see from the yard. We inspect storm damage, document it thoroughly for insurance purposes, and explain exactly what was damaged and what it will take to fix it.

Is the roof inspection really free?
Yes. We charge nothing for the inspection. We make our money doing repairs and replacements that homeowners choose to hire us for after seeing what we found. If your roof is in great shape, we tell you that and shake hands. No charge, no pressure.
How long does a roof inspection take?
Most residential inspections take 45-90 minutes including time on the roof and the walkthrough conversation with you. Larger homes, complex rooflines, or roofs with significant issues may take longer. We do not rush inspections.
Can a roof inspection help with my insurance claim?
Yes. Our documented inspections with photographs of storm damage are useful when filing insurance claims. We identify hail impact points, wind damage, and granule loss in a format that supports the claim process. We do not work directly with insurance adjusters, but our written report and photos are yours to use.
How often should I have my Pittsburgh roof inspected?
Annual inspections are best practice for roofs over 10 years old. After any significant storm, a post-storm inspection is worth doing even if you see nothing obviously wrong from the ground. Pre-purchase inspections are recommended for any home sale or purchase. Catching problems early is always cheaper than addressing them late.
Do you inspect all roof types?
Yes. We inspect asphalt shingles, metal roofing, flat roofs (TPO and EPDM), slate, and other roofing materials. Inspection approach and what we look for varies by material, and we adjust accordingly.
What does a roof inspection include?
We inspect shingles or membrane for wear, cracking, and granule loss; all flashing at chimney, valleys, skylights, and vents; gutters and drainage; soffits and fascia for rot; and attic ventilation where accessible. You receive a written report with photos documenting condition and any recommendations.
