Roof Inspections in Alpine, Utah

You do not need to wait for an active leak before scheduling a roof inspection in Alpine. We check the flashing, vent seals, shingles and attic ventilation for problems that can develop before water reaches the inside of the home. If we find damage while the affected section is still small, you may be able to repair that section before water spreads farther into the roof or home.

You should have your roof inspected in Alpine before you buy or sell a home, after a severe storm, or when you want to check the condition of an aging roof. If a recent storm damaged roofs in your neighborhood or blew shingles off nearby homes, your roof may have storm damage too. We inspect the shingles, flashing and roof openings for storm damage. We photograph any damage we find and tell you whether your roof needs repairs.

We inspect the main parts of the roofing system that affect the roof's condition and lifespan. We check whether the shingles are still sealed together, inspect the metal flashing around roof joints, evaluate attic ventilation and look for damage to the wooden roof deck. Problems with shingles, flashing, attic ventilation or the wooden roof deck can develop before you can see damage from the ground.

We adjust the inspection to the roof's design, age and condition. On Alpine homes, we commonly check the following areas:

• Shingle adhesion: We gently check whether the shingles are still sealed to the shingles below them. A shingle can look normal from the ground even after its adhesive bond has failed.
• Lower roof edges: We inspect the lower roof edge for loose shingles, damaged materials and signs that snow, ice or backed-up water has moved underneath the roofing.
• Vent and pipe seals: We inspect the rubber seals and flashing around pipes that pass through the roof. We look for cracks, gaps and deterioration that could let water into the roof.
• Attic inspection: We inspect the underside of the roof from inside the attic. We look for water stains, damp insulation, rusted nails, daylight through openings and other signs of moisture or roof damage.
• Attic ventilation: We check whether air can enter and leave the attic properly. Poor ventilation can trap heat and moisture and may shorten the life of the roofing materials.
• Wooden roof deck: When we can safely walk the roof, we check for soft or flexible areas underfoot. A soft area can indicate moisture damage in the wooden roof deck underneath the shingles.

We photograph the shingles, flashing, roof openings and attic, including any wear or damage we identify. In the written report, we include the photographs, describe the roof's condition and whether replacement appears to be approaching and list any repairs we recommend. We list urgent repairs separately from roof conditions you can monitor or plan to address later.

Our roof inspections in Alpine are free and usually take about an hour. After the inspection, we give you photographs and a written summary of the roof's condition.

1. Choose safe inspection conditionsWe do not walk a roof when snow, ice, rain or other conditions make the inspection unsafe or keep us from seeing the roofing materials clearly. If needed, we reschedule for safer conditions.
2. Inspect the roof directlyWhen conditions are safe, we walk the roof and check the shingles, flashing and roof edges. We also feel for soft areas in the wooden roof deck underfoot. We cannot confirm some roof problems from the ground.
3. Inspect the atticWe look at the underside of the roof for water stains, damp insulation, rusted nails, daylight through openings and other signs of moisture. From inside the attic, we can see moisture or openings that may not be visible from the roof surface.
4. Report when no repair is neededIf the roof is in good condition and does not need immediate work, we say that clearly in the written report.
