Roof Inspections in Uintah, Utah

Many older homes in Uintah were built around 1994, 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 Uintah 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 Uintah were built around 1994, 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 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 Uintah homes, we commonly check the following areas:

• Shingle adhesion: We check whether the adhesive strips still hold neighboring shingles together. Loose shingles are more vulnerable to wind and water.
• Eaves and gutters: We inspect the lower roof edge and gutter line for signs that water has moved behind the roofing materials or damaged the wood.
• 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 the attic has enough airflow. Poor ventilation can trap heat and moisture and can contribute to winter ice problems.
• 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.
• 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.

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. Tell us why you need the inspectionLet us know whether you are buying a home, checking for storm damage or evaluating the roof's general condition. We use that purpose to decide which photographs and details to emphasize in the written report.
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. Organize the report by priorityWe list urgent repairs first. We then list roof conditions you can monitor and work you can plan for later.
