Roof Inspections in Santaquin, Utah

Some roof problems in Santaquin are difficult to see from the ground. We check the shingles, flashing, roof openings and attic for damage and ventilation problems. If we find a problem before water reaches a larger part of the roof or the inside of the home, you may only need to repair the smaller damaged area. We also describe the roof's condition and whether replacement appears to be approaching so you can plan future maintenance or replacement.

You should have your roof inspected in Santaquin 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 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 Santaquin 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.
• Roof drainage: We check the roof edges, gutters and drainage paths to see whether water can move off the roof properly. Poor drainage can allow water to damage roofing materials and wood.
• Ice-dam damage: We inspect the lower roof edge for signs that melting snow became trapped behind ice. Trapped water can move underneath the shingles and damage the roof edge even when you never noticed an interior leak.
• 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.
• 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.

We inspect the roof and attic, photograph the areas we checked and prepare a written report that explains the roof's condition. If the roof does not need repairs, we say so in the report. We document the condition we actually observe instead of assuming that every roof needs work.

1. Schedule the inspectionA typical inspection takes about an hour. You do not always need to be home. We can send you the photographs and written report afterward.
2. Inspect roof joints and openingsWe check chimneys, walls, valleys, vent pipes, skylights and roof edges closely. At each joint or opening, we inspect the flashing and seals for gaps, cracks, loose materials or other damage that could let water into the roof.
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 the reportAfter the inspection, we give you the photographs and a written summary of the roof's condition. You can keep the report, share the report with a buyer or seller, or provide the report to an insurance company.
