A professional roof inspection covers every component of your roofing system — not just what you can see from the ground. Tanner Roofing & Maintenance inspectors walk the roof to examine each shingle section for cracking, curling, buckling, and granule loss. We check every flashing point: chimney flashing, step flashing at walls, pipe boots at plumbing vents, vent boots at exhaust fans, and valley channels where water concentrates.
Attic inspection is the part most roofers skip. We check your soffit vents, ridge vents, and attic fan operation to verify balanced ventilation. Poor ventilation causes heat buildup that bakes shingles from underneath and ice dams in cold weather. We also check insulation levels and look for moisture, mold, or compressed batts that reduce R-value.
Our Roof Inspection Process
Schedule Your Inspection
Quick scheduling by phone or online. Most Tanner inspections booked within 3-5 business days. Storm damage inspections prioritized for faster turnaround.
Exterior Roof Walk
Our inspector walks every section of the roof. Shingles checked for cracking, curling, buckling, missing tabs, and granule loss. All flashing inspected — chimney, pipe boots, vent boots, step flashing, counter-flashing, valleys. Ridge cap and ridge vents examined. Drip edge condition noted.
Below-Deck Assessment
We enter the attic to check from below. Soffit vent airflow verified. Ridge vent continuity checked. Insulation levels measured. Roof deck inspected for moisture stains, mold, daylight, or sagging between rafters. This catches problems the surface walk can't see.
Findings Delivered
Your roof inspection report delivered within 48 hours. Prioritized findings, annotated photos, and repair recommendations. We walk you through the report by phone or in person if you prefer.
