If you think roof inspections are optional and that procrastinating having them done isn’t a big deal, think again. For various reasons, regular roof inspections are vital for the functionality and longevity of your roof.

A roof is a huge investment and a key component of your building, and neglecting its needs will almost always lead to expensive problems down the road. The first step in properly caring for your roof is regular, professionally conducted roof inspections.

The Importance of Roof Inspections

For many reasons, having roof inspections regularly performed is important.

The most obvious reason is to safeguard your roof. Regular inspections help identify roof problems and damage so they can be corrected in their early stages. The longer a roofing issue goes unchecked, the greater the damage can become—and the more expensive it will typically be to fix.

Another reason for having regular inspections is your roof warranty. If your roof is covered under a warranty, the warranty typically stipulates that inspections must be performed at specified intervals by a professional roofer. Failure to comply can lead to the invalidation of your warranty.

Roof inspections become important yet again when you need to file an insurance claim. When a roofing company inspects your roof, thorough documentation of your roof’s condition is typically part of the process. When you need to file a roof insurance claim, whether due to storm damage or another injurious event, this kind of detailed documentation goes a long way in helping you successfully receive the insurance settlement you need. A common reason for insurance claim denials is preexisting damage, and a roofer’s well-documented evidence can conclusively prove that the damage you’re claiming was not preexisting.

Schedule Your Next Inspection

It is recommended that roofs are inspected at least twice a year—once before the harshest weather season begins in your area and again following the close of that season. You should also have your roof inspected following any kind of event that could have potentially damaged it, like a severe storm or an earthquake.
