Need Your Roof Inspected?
You need a roof inspection if your residential roof is getting close to its lifespan, you are experiencing leaks during heavy rainfall, or you’re seeing mold spots on some of your walls.
And when we say “you,” we don’t mean you personally should inspect the roof, but rather you need to get a comprehensive roof inspection performed by an experienced and licensed roofer. Putting aside your personal safety in climbing a ladder and getting up on a roof, there are more than a few things an inexperienced eye is likely to miss.
Roof inspections conducted by trained professionals with the necessary knowledge and expertise can best identify any issues that potentially affect not only your comfort and safety but also your home’s resale value or business operation.
Proper residential roof inspections provide you with the peace of mind that your roof is functioning properly and is safe for everyone. If your roof is damaged, an inspection can help you understand the kind of work needed to repair it and how much to budget for the cost of roof repairs or, in some cases, roof replacement.
Roofing inspections are conducted for one of two reasons:
As part of regular roof maintenance
Prior to assessing a roof problem that may require repairs or even an entire roof replacement
Roof maintenance involves regular upkeep and inspection of your roof to ensure it is in good condition. Regular roof maintenance involves inspecting and repairing any minor damages, cleaning away debris, and ensuring proper drainage. Regular maintenance and inspection prevent costly damages and extend the life of your roof.
Before any roof service is conducted, a licensed, trained, and experienced Elevated roofer looks for missing shingles, pooling water, cracks or holes, mildew or mold, rooting wood, and pest infestations, as well as underlying structural conditions to determine if a new roof or repair is warranted. Equally important, Elevated measures your roof to provide an accurate quote for services and recommend a maintenance plan to extend the useful life of your home’s roof.

When is a Roof Inspection Necessary?
There are basically four reasons to perform a roof inspection:
Your home building is experiencing leaks during storms, and/or mold is appearing on your walls or ceilings.
Every three to five years to ensure the integrity of your roof and/or as part of your regular roof maintenance scheduling. If half of your roof’s life expectancy is past, and you haven’t yet done a roof inspection, the time to do a roof inspection has arrived.
Your roof experienced storm damage, such as fallen tree limbs, several roof shingles found on the ground, and/or water or mold spots on the ceiling. Your insurance company requires a professional roof inspection to confirm any claims for storm damages.
If you’re buying a home, a roof inspection assesses the roof’s structural integrity; any issues discovered could help negotiate a lower purchase price to reflect the likelihood of repairs. At the very least, you gain the knowledge you are buying a home with a proper roof.

This it long overdue. The crew completed the work back in November. We had some storm damage back in April, and it took some time for the insurance company to get adjusters out. I had another company come out and look at the job first, but they didn't seem interested in the job, so I called some friends and was told to reach out to Elevated. They had a great experience with them. I had also seen them doing work in my neighborhood, so I gave them a call. I talked to Erika, and she said she would have Matt get back ahold of me tomorrow. As promised, Matt called me back the next morning, and within a day, he was out inspecting the job. He was very knowledgeable. He went into all the facets of what it would take to complete the job and that he would have the job done in 2 days. I was not expecting them to be able to start the job before the spring of 2025, but to my surprise, Matt said they would be able to get it done before winter. I was not sure how they would have it done so quickly. The job was 54sq. Matt assured me the he would have two crews and his leads JT, and Colton would keep them moving and on time. On the first day of work, the crews showed up promptly ready to start at 7am. I met with JT, and Colton. I was impressed with their knowledge and ability to get the crews started, and by the end of the first day, they had all the tear-off completed. They did a good job at keeping the debris picked up from the yard. They did a great job keeping me informed as to the progression. They even came to get me when they found OSB that needed to be replaced. I was expecting that to cause a delay, but they went out that day and picked up the materials needed to keep the job on track. I believe that is what allowed them to get the job done on time. I was very impressed with the level of care they took to make sure my yard and the area around the house was thoroughly cleaned from any debris. I can't say enough good things about Erika, Matt, JT, Colton, and everyone there. They even took care of all for the insurance stuff. Another positive thing was the accuracy of the price estimate. If you are in the market for a new roof, reach out to them.

we had a small roof repair that was beyond our ability to fix. From quote to complete repair, it was 2.5 days. The roof is fixed and we feel more prepared for winter. Excellent service!
