It's recommended to have your roof inspected at least once a year, ideally in spring after the snow melts, to spot any damage caused by winter. An inspection is also advised after a major weather event: a heavy snowstorm, strong winds or heavy rain. An annual roof inspection helps catch small problems early (lifted shingles, detached flashings) before they turn into costly infiltrations. It's a simple preventive step that extends your roof's lifespan.
A roof inspection includes a full check of the asphalt shingles, the flashings around chimneys and vents, attic ventilation, soffits, and any signs of infiltration or mould. Our team also checks vulnerable areas such as valleys and joints. You then receive a clear overview of your roof's condition and, if needed, preventive maintenance recommendations to extend its lifespan. A good inspection saves you from unpleasant surprises and helps you plan your work at the right time.
A roof inspection isn't legally required when buying a house, but it's strongly recommended. The roof is one of the most expensive elements to replace, and its condition affects your purchase offer. A licensed building inspector checks it visually as part of the general home inspection; if issues are found, a more in-depth assessment by a certified roofer is recommended. It's better to know the true condition of the roof before you sign.
The cost of a roof inspection varies depending on the roof's surface area, accessibility and the level of detail requested for the report.
