Roof Inspections in Marriott-Slaterville, Utah

The age of an older home in Marriott-Slaterville does not tell you when the current roof was installed or how much wear the current roofing shows. We inspect the current roofing materials and describe their condition and whether replacement appears to be approaching. We tell you whether the roof needs a repair now or whether you should start planning for replacement.

You should have an older roof in Marriott-Slaterville inspected before you buy or sell the home and after severe winter weather. You may also want an inspection before spending money on other major home improvements. If we estimate that the roof is approaching replacement, you can account for that expense before you commit your budget to other major projects.

We inspect the roofing materials, the components that commonly fail first and the attic underneath the roof. We take photographs during the roof and attic inspection and provide a written report of the roof's condition. You can keep the report for your records or share it with a buyer, seller, insurer or another contractor.

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

• Shingle layers: We check how many layers of shingles are already on the roof. On an older home built around 1993, previous roof replacements may have added layers, and the number of layers can affect the cost and scope of a future replacement.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Flashing: We inspect the metal flashing around chimneys, walls, roof edges, valleys and other joints. Loose or damaged flashing can let water into the roof even when the shingles are still in good condition.

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.

We schedule the roof inspection at a time that works for you, and you do not always need to be home. After the inspection, we send you photographs and a written summary of the roof's condition. You can keep the written report for your records or share the report with a buyer, seller or insurer.

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. Take photographsWe photograph the roof, attic and any areas that show wear or damage. We include the photographs with the written report so you can see the conditions we describe.
3. Check attic ventilationWe inspect how air enters and leaves the attic. Proper ventilation helps control heat and moisture and can reduce premature shingle aging and winter ice buildup.
4. Provide a written reportWe give you photographs and a written summary of the roof's condition. We list repairs that need attention now, conditions you can monitor and our estimate of the roof's remaining useful life.
