Free Roof Inspection in Marietta & Metro Area
Not sure what's going on with your roof? You're not alone. Most homeowners can't tell if their roof is fine or falling apart just by looking at it from the ground. That's where we come in.
Our free roof inspection gives you the full picture. We check everything from shingles to flashing to your attic. If there's damage, we find it. If your roof is in good shape, we'll tell you that too. No charge, no pressure, no sales pitch—just honest answers about your roof's condition. We've been helping Atlanta, Marietta, and Roswell homeowners protect their homes for over 20 years.
When to Get a Roof Inspection
Not sure if you need an inspection? Here are the most common times metro Atlanta homeowners call us. If any of these sound like your situation, it's time to schedule your free check.
Before Buying a Home
Thinking about buying a house in Atlanta or Marietta? A roof inspection can save you from surprise repair bills. We check for hidden damage that home inspectors might miss. Knowing the roof's true condition helps you negotiate a fair price or ask the seller to make repairs before closing.
After a Storm
Georgia storms can hit hard. After hail, high winds, or heavy rain, your roof may have damage you can't see from the ground. Loose shingles, dented flashing, and cracked vents often hide until leaks start. We recommend an inspection within a week of any major storm.
Annual Maintenance
Even if everything looks fine, a yearly roof check is smart. Small problems like loose flashing or worn shingles are easy to fix early. Wait too long, and you could be looking at water damage, mold, or a full roof replacement. Most Atlanta homeowners schedule their inspection in spring or fall.
Selling Your Home
Planning to sell your home in metro Atlanta? Buyers want to know the roof is in good shape. A recent inspection report gives them confidence and can speed up your sale. If we find issues, you can fix them first or adjust your asking price.
Insurance Claims
Filing a storm damage claim? Insurance companies need proof of damage. Our detailed inspection report with photos gives your adjuster exactly what they need. We've helped hundreds of Atlanta homeowners get their claims approved faster.
Aging Roof
Most shingle roofs last 20 to 25 years. If your roof is getting close to that age, regular inspections are a must. We can tell you how much life is left and help you plan for the future. Catching wear and tear early means fewer surprises down the road.
Signs You Need a Roof Inspection Now
Some warning signs are easy to spot if you know what to look for. Here's what Atlanta homeowners can check on their own—and when to call us.
Shingles on the Ground
Finding shingles in your yard after a storm? That's a clear sign your roof needs attention. Even one or two missing shingles can let water into your home. Walk around your property after windy weather and check what's fallen.
Water Stains Inside
Brown spots on your ceiling or walls usually mean water is getting in somewhere. The stain might be far from the actual leak—water travels before it drips. Don't paint over it and hope for the best. Call us to find where the water is coming from.
Curling or Buckling Shingles
Look at your roof from the street. Do the shingles lay flat, or do some look wavy or curled at the edges? Curling means your shingles are wearing out and won't protect your home much longer. This is common on roofs over 15 years old in the Atlanta heat.
Granules in Gutters
Those tiny pebbles in your gutters are granules from your shingles. Some loss is normal, but if you're seeing a lot, your shingles are breaking down. Granules protect shingles from UV rays. Without them, your roof ages faster.
Light in the Attic
Go into your attic on a sunny day and turn off the lights. If you see daylight coming through the roof boards, you have a problem. Gaps that let in light also let in water, bugs, and critters. This needs fixing right away.
Sagging Roof Deck
A roof should have straight lines. If you notice dips or sags, the structure underneath may be damaged. Water damage, rot, or inadequate support can cause sagging. This is serious—call us at (404) 797-8115 if you spot this.

What We Check During Your Inspection
We don't just glance at your roof from the driveway. Our inspectors get up close and personal with every part of your roofing system.
Exterior Components
- Shingle condition and granule loss
We check for cracking, curling, missing pieces, and how much granule wear you have.
- Flashing around chimneys and vents
Metal flashing seals gaps around pipes and chimneys. We look for rust, gaps, or loose sections.
- Gutter attachment and drainage
Gutters should be firmly attached and clear of debris. Poor drainage can damage your roof edge.
- Ridge caps and hip shingles
These protect the peaks of your roof. They often wear out before the rest of the roof.
- Soffit and fascia boards
We check for rot, peeling paint, and animal damage on these important trim pieces.
- Skylights and roof penetrations
Any hole in your roof is a potential leak point. We check seals around every opening.
Interior & Structural
- Attic ventilation assessment
Proper airflow keeps your attic cool in summer and dry in winter. Poor ventilation shortens roof life.
- Signs of water intrusion
Water stains, damp insulation, and mold growth all tell us water is getting in somewhere.
- Insulation condition
Wet, compressed, or missing insulation means your roof isn't protecting your home properly.
- Structural integrity
We look at the roof deck and rafters for signs of sagging, rot, or damage.
- Previous repair quality
Past patch jobs can hide problems or create new ones. We check if earlier repairs were done right.
- Overall roof age evaluation
Based on materials and wear, we estimate how many years your roof has left.
