Four things to inspect inside the house
Spots of Roof deck staging.
Water Leaking Marks.
Dark Signs of Trails.
Visible outer light through roof.
Exterior Inspection
While checking exterior pay attention to missing shingles, damaged flashing, curling, buckling, blistering, rotting & algae growth (occurs due to humid climate and looks like dark-greenish stains).
Watch out signs of moisture, rot or molds. Wet spots do not directly damage your roof but faulty shingle. Water travels down to the lowest spot before it drips. Fungi, mold and bacteria can grow very quickly even in 24 - 48 hours.
Commercial roofing contractors
If hire coomercial roofing contractor for your roof inspection, few things to keep in mind.
1. Home Team inspectors offer good tips to check the roof from outside.
2. Visible inspection for torn, cracked, bald/missing shingles on a roof.
3. Scan your roof for loose material, wear around chimneys, pipes or other penetrations and vents.
4. Check for excessive quantity of shingle granules (it looks like huge grains of sand) in the gutters. It is a sign of advanced wear.
Different type of roof inspection
Title :
You must look for broken/cracked tiles. Roof tiles can last up to 100 years, but single tiles can break very often. Those tiles are replaceable, but only by a professional.
Cedar:
A cedar roof needs repair or replacement in dry climates. It will split and fall apart in dry summer days. In moist weather, it can get mossy. The lifespan of a cedar roof is almost 20 years.
Concrete:
It should never need replacement.
Maintainence of a Wooden Roof
If your roof is with wooden shakes, you should watch out for damage from carpenter,
ants, termites or other wood-boring pests.
