Roof Inspection FAQ for Birmingham Homeowners

How often should Birmingham homeowners get roof inspection?
Given Birmingham's hot, humid summers averaging 90°f with high dewpoints, most homeowners benefit from roof inspection at least once a year. Post-tornado storm damage cleanup (March–May priority) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Birmingham most need roof inspection?
Brick ranch homes throughout Jefferson and Shelby counties and Craftsman bungalows in Highland Park and Forest Park are the most common home types in Birmingham and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How often should a roof be inspected?
Annually is ideal, especially for roofs over 10 years old. Always inspect after significant hail or wind events, and before selling or buying a home.
Will a roofing company give me an honest inspection, or just try to sell me a new roof?
Reputable roofers provide honest assessments. We provide detailed written reports with photos. If we recommend replacement, we explain exactly why — get a second opinion on any major recommendation.
What does an inspection include?
We inspect shingles (missing, cracked, curling, granule loss), flashings, valleys, pipe boots, ridge cap, gutters, fascia, soffits, and the attic interior for moisture or structural concerns.
Can you inspect my roof without walking on it?
Yes. For steep, fragile, or complex roofs, we use drone inspection with high-resolution cameras and can provide equally thorough assessments without physically walking the surface.
