Roof Inspections in Riverdale, Utah

Many older homes in Riverdale were built around 1986, but the current roof may have been replaced one or more times since the home was built. If you do not know when the current roof was installed, we inspect the shingles and roofing components that are on the home now. We base our estimate of the roof's remaining useful life on the condition of the shingles and roofing components that are installed now, not on the age of the house.

You should have an older roof in Riverdale inspected when you are buying or selling the home, when you do not know the roof's age, or when you want to plan for future replacement. Many homes in Riverdale were built around 1986, but the current roof may have been installed years later. We evaluate the shingles and roofing components that are on the home today and describe their condition in a written report.

We inspect the shingles, flashing, vents, pipes, roof edges, gutters and attic. We photograph any wear, damage, moisture or installation problems we identify. In the written report, we explain the roof's current condition and describe its condition and whether replacement appears to be approaching.

We adjust the inspection to the roof's design, age and condition. On Riverdale 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 1986, 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.
• Roof joints: We check the areas where the roof meets chimneys, walls, valleys, vents and other structures. We inspect the flashing and seals at these joints for openings or damage that could let water into the roof.
• Underside of the roof: From inside the attic, we check the wooden roof deck for water stains and other signs of past or current moisture. From the attic, we can see moisture or roof damage that may not be visible from outside.
• Attic ventilation: We check whether the attic has enough airflow. Poor ventilation can trap heat and moisture and can contribute to winter ice problems.

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 Riverdale are free and usually take about an hour. After the inspection, we give you photographs and a written summary of the roof's condition. We tell you which roof problems need attention now, which conditions you can monitor and how much useful life we estimate the roof has left. You are not required to hire us for any recommended work.

1. No charge and no obligationThe inspection is free. If the roof does not need work, we say that in the report. You are not required to hire us for anything.
2. Inspect every roof slopeWe inspect every roof slope we can safely access, not just the area where you first noticed a problem. Wind, sun and weather can affect more than one section of the roof.
3. Compare the attic and roof surfaceWe compare moisture, ventilation and structural conditions in the attic with the shingles, flashing and roof openings above them. If we see moisture, poor ventilation or older water damage in the attic, we include those conditions when we evaluate the roof surface.
4. Organize the report by priorityWe list urgent repairs first. We then list roof conditions you can monitor and work you can plan for later.
