What Makes The Third Estimate’s Roof Inspections Different?

As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we take roof inspections to the next level with our exclusive 21-Point Roof Inspection. While some roofing companies perform a quick surface-level check, we conduct a detailed assessment of your entire roofing system, from shingles and flashing to ventilation and attic insulation.

Our Comprehensive 21-Point Roof Inspection Services Cover:

Structural & Slope Analysis

Proper roof design and slope play a key role in drainage and durability.

Pitch & Slope Evaluation – The angle of your roof affects drainage and material selection. We measure the pitch to ensure the correct underlayment is used.
Roof Decking & Structural Integrity Check – We inspect for warping, sagging, or moisture damage that could weaken your roof’s foundation.

Shingle & Surface Condition

A thorough assessment of your roof’s exterior condition to detect potential weaknesses.

Roof Age & Material Assessment – We determine the age of your shingles, identify the manufacturer, and assess durability.
Shingle Condition Check – We examine shingles for granule loss, curling, cracking, or missing sections that could expose your roof to leaks.
Proper Sealing & Adhesion – Our team checks if shingles are securely sealed to prevent wind uplift and water infiltration.

Flashing & Water Management Systems

Proper sealing and drainage are critical to preventing leaks.

Flashing & Sealant Inspection – One of the most common causes of roof leaks is improper or damaged flashing. We inspect:
  • Step flashing around walls and dormers is a critical component to consider during Roof Inspection Services.
  • Apron flashing at roof-to-wall transitions must be checked by professional Roof Inspection Services.
  • Counter flashing at chimneys should always be reviewed in Roof Inspection Services.
  • Pipe boots and vent flashing require careful evaluation as part of Roof Inspection Services.
Hips & Ridges Assessment – These areas experience the most exposure to wind and rain. We check for cracks, bending, and missing ridge caps.
Gutter System Evaluation – A roof is a water management system, and gutters play a crucial role. We check for proper slope, clogs, leaks, and damage.

Storm Damage & Weather Resilience

Weather-related issues can cause unseen damage that worsens over time.

Storm Damage & Hail Impact Assessment – We evaluate past and recent storm damage to see if an insurance claim may be needed.

Ventilation & Attic Health

An efficient ventilation system prevents moisture buildup, mold growth, and premature roof failure.

Ventilation System Check – Proper intake and exhaust ventilation prevents moisture buildup and premature shingle failure. We assess:
  • Soffit vents for proper airflow should not be overlooked in Roof Inspection Services.
  • Ridge and box vents for adequate attic exhaust are typically included in thorough Roof Inspection Services.
  • Fan-assisted ventilation for optimal air circulation is often inspected within Roof Inspection Services.
Attic Inspection – A roof problem often starts inside the attic. Our inspection includes:
  • Checking for signs of leaks, mold, or mildew is a fundamental step in any Roof Inspection Services.
  • Ensuring proper insulation to prevent heat loss might be part of Roof Inspection Services.
  • Looking for light penetration that could indicate hidden damage is one of the tasks included in Roof Inspection Services.
