Diagnostic Roof
Inspections
Precision analysis of your roof's true condition. Know exactly what you have, what it needs, and what it will cost — before a minor issue becomes a major failure.
Our 40-Point Inspection
Every surface, layer, and component is assessed against documented condition benchmarks. We don't do drive-by inspections.
Your Inspection Report Package
Every Apex inspection produces a complete, professional-grade deliverable set — not a verbal summary or a one-page checklist.
Digital PDF Report
A fully formatted, shareable inspection report with findings organized by severity — critical, advisory, and maintenance. Suitable for insurance submissions, real estate transactions, and contractor briefings.
Annotated Photo Log
Every finding is documented with close-range photography — captured from the surface or by drone — and annotated with arrows and labels identifying the specific defect and its location on the roof.
Priority Ranking Matrix
Findings are ranked by urgency and estimated cost impact: immediate action required, recommended within 12 months, and long-term monitoring items. No ambiguity, no generalized recommendations.
Remaining Lifespan Estimate
Based on material type, installation date, documented condition, and exposure history, we provide a calibrated estimate of remaining functional service life so you can plan — not react.
Did your area experience a recent storm?
Post-storm inspections must be completed before your insurance claim window closes.
Who needs a roof inspection — and why.
Your roof is your largest maintenance item. Treat it like one.
A $0 annual inspection is what prevents a $25,000 emergency. Most roof failures that reach the interior begin as minor issues — a lifted flashing tab, a cracked vent boot seal — that are trivial to address when caught early and catastrophic when missed for three years running. Annual inspections keep your manufacturer warranties valid, protect your homeowners insurance standing, and give you a current written record of your roof's condition that has real value at resale.
The storm has passed. The damage clock has already started.
Insurance policies have strict deadlines for storm damage claims — typically 12 months from the date of loss, though some carriers shorten this. Latent hail bruising and wind creasing are not visible from the ground and are routinely missed by untrained inspectors. Our post-storm inspection produces the documented evidence you need to open a claim, supplement an undervalued settlement, or simply confirm your roof weathered the event without issue. Do not guess — know.
The most expensive surprises happen during escrow.
Sellers who inspect before listing can price honestly, disclose confidently, and avoid the renegotiations that kill deals. Buyers who inspect before closing — beyond the general home inspection — get a roofing-specific assessment that a generalist inspector cannot provide. Our pre-transaction reports are written for legal and financial contexts: clear findings, calibrated language, and an estimated remediation cost for any identified deficiency.
After your inspection, if we identify issues that warrant attention, we can walk you through your replacement options or read our guide on when replacement is the right call.
What homeowners discovered.
"I was about to list my house and assumed the roof was fine. The Apex inspection found a slow leak above the master bedroom — one that had never reached the ceiling but had rotted six square feet of decking. I fixed it before listing and it didn't affect my price."
"The annotated photo report was so detailed that my insurance adjuster accepted it without requesting their own inspection. The claim was approved within a week. I've never had a contractor provide documentation at that level."
"As a buyer, I paid for my own inspection separate from the home inspector's walk-through. Apex found three issues the general inspector missed, including compromised flashing on both valleys. We renegotiated $6,000 off the purchase price."
