A professional roof inspection covers every component of your roofing system โ not just what you can see from the ground. Thornwood 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.
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
Appointment Setup
Quick scheduling by phone or online. Most Thornwood inspections booked within 3-5 business days. Storm damage inspections prioritized for faster turnaround.
Exterior Roof Walk
Top-to-bottom roof walk. Shingles, flashing, ridge, valleys, eaves, penetrations โ every component visually and physically inspected. We don't just look; we press, probe, and lift to find hidden failures.
Attic & Ventilation Check
Attic inspection: we check ventilation balance (soffit vents vs. ridge vents), insulation depth and condition, and the underside of the roof deck for moisture. Dark stains, mold, or daylight through the sheathing signal active or past water intrusion.
Detailed Report
You receive a written report with annotated photos within 48 hours. Findings prioritized by urgency: critical (active leaks, failed flashing), moderate (worn shingles, marginal ventilation), and low (cosmetic, long-term maintenance). Repair estimates included.
