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. Johns Island Roofing & Maintenance's roof inspection catches all of this before it becomes a $15,000 emergency.
We inspect the roof in three stages. First, we walk the entire surface โ checking shingles for wear, flashing for gaps, and all penetrations for seal integrity. Second, we examine the perimeter โ drip edge, eave condition, gutter attachment, fascia and soffit condition. Third, we go into the attic โ checking ventilation, insulation, and looking for moisture, mold, or daylight showing through the roof deck.
Our Roof Inspection Process
Schedule Your Inspection
Call (877) 586-1316 or book online. We schedule same-week roof inspections throughout Johns Island. Tell us if it's routine maintenance, real estate, insurance, or storm-related โ each type gets a tailored inspection protocol.
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.
Findings Delivered
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.
