Your roof is the most expensive exterior system on your home, and it degrades silently. UV radiation bakes the granule coating off asphalt shingles. Thermal cycling cracks sealant at flashing transitions. Wind lifts shingle edges and loosens ridge cap. Shutesbury Roofing & Maintenance's roof inspection catches all of this before it becomes a $15,000 emergency.
We photograph everything. Every damaged shingle, every corroded flashing point, every blocked vent. Your inspection report includes annotated photos keyed to a roof diagram so you can see exactly where each issue is and how urgent it is. No guesswork, no vague summaries.
Our Roof Inspection Process
Book Online or Call
We'll confirm your inspection date and time. Let us know the purpose — annual maintenance, home sale, insurance claim, or post-storm — so our inspector brings the right checklist and documentation forms.
Surface Inspection
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.
Interior Inspection
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.
Detailed Report
Detailed inspection report with photos keyed to a roof diagram. Every finding documented with location, severity, and recommended action. Repair cost ranges included so you can budget accurately. Insurance-ready format available.
