Know what is going on with your roof before a leak tells you. We combine a drone flight with a hands-on look under the tile and send you a written report with photos, usually within a day.
A drive-by glance cannot tell you much about a tile roof. We fly the whole roof with a drone to catch broken tile, slipped ridges and worn coating, then walk the roof where it is safe and lift tiles at key spots such as valleys, eaves and around penetrations to check the underlayment.
We also look in the attic for stains, daylight and damp insulation. On flat roofs we check coating thickness, parapets, scuppers and any ponding areas. Everything goes into one report with photos, so you see exactly what we saw.
The best time is spring, before monsoon season. Repairs are easier to schedule and cheaper than emergency calls in August. We also recommend an inspection after any big storm, when your tile roof passes 18 to 20 years old, and before you sell or buy.
For buyers, a roof report adds detail a general home inspection cannot, like how much life the underlayment has left and what a relay would cost. For sellers, fixing small items ahead of listing avoids surprises during the inspection period and keeps a roof question from reopening the price.
You get a written report with annotated photos, an estimate of remaining life for the tile, underlayment or coating, and a list of repairs sorted by urgency. Anything that needs attention now is priced so you can act right away.
There is no pressure to hire us for the work. Plenty of homeowners use the report to plan a few years ahead, and a clean report is useful to have on file for insurance or resale. If a storm damages the roof later, a dated report showing its condition beforehand makes the conversation with your insurer much simpler.

Pick a time online or by phone. Most inspections happen the same week.
Drone flight over the full roof, then a hands-on check where it is safe.
We look in the attic and at every valley, eave, vent and scupper.
A written photo report arrives within about a day.
Hired them for a roof inspection while buying a house in Power Ranch. The report was clear, with photos and a price for the relay the roof will need in a few years. We used it to negotiate with the seller. Worth every penny.
Booked a pre-monsoon inspection. Drone photos showed three cracked tiles and a lifted pipe jack I never would have seen. They fixed them the same week for a reasonable price.
Got an inspection before our builder warranty ran out in Harvest. They found short headlaps and missing bird stop and wrote it up clearly. The builder fixed it on their dime because of that report.
Most East Valley homes take 45 minutes to an hour and a half on site, depending on roof size and attic access. You do not need to be home for the roof portion, though we do need access for the attic check. The written report usually arrives within a day.
Only where it is safe and only with care. Tile can crack under a careless step, so our inspectors walk the headlaps and rely on the drone for the rest. Any tile we lift to check the underlayment gets set back properly, and we replace anything we crack at no charge.
Once a year is a good habit, ideally in spring before monsoon season. Add an inspection after any major storm or any time a solar, satellite or AC crew has been on the roof. Older tile roofs and foam roofs close to a recoat benefit most from regular checks.
Yes. Buyers, sellers and agents regularly use our reports during escrow. The report includes photos, a remaining life estimate and prices for any repairs, which helps both sides negotiate with real numbers instead of guesses. We can usually schedule inside a typical inspection window.
