Why We Perform a 10-Point Inspection

Your roofing can be deceptive. On the surface level, everything might appear fine, but did you know that most roofing problems often manifest beneath the surface? The signs that your roof needs maintenance aren’t always obvious. This is the reason our team at Vinylume Home Improvements always performs a 10-point inspection.

10-Point Inspection

10-Point Inspection

The only way to tell if your roofing needs maintenance or repairs is through an in-depth inspection. This is why we developed a 10-point inspection process that looks at 10 integral points on your roofing:

  • The roof’s actual condition
  • Chimney
  • Gutters
  • Downspouts
  • Flashing
  • Roof ventilation
  • Soffits
  • Vent pipes
  • Drainage
  • Attic

These are the most problematic parts of your home’s roofing. Our roofing contractors thoroughly assess each component so that we can provide a complete and accurate report of your roof’s condition.

Roofing Elements and the Roof

We focus not just on the actual roof but also the other elements that can affect its performance or reveal signs of trouble in your roof. For example, did you know that the easiest way to tell if your roof shingles are nearing the end of its lifespan is by checking the gutters? Rainwater and extreme weather strip the granules that serve as the protective coating of the shingles, which eventually end up in the gutters. If we see that your gutters contain high amount of granules, then we know that your shingles need to be replaced.

Maintenance Work Is Fast and Error-Free

Finally, our 10-point inspection serves as a guarantee that the maintenance or repair work we’ll do on your roofing is actually needed, and will fully address the underlying problems with your system. Count on us to deliver you honest and professional work and we’ll always get it right the first time around.
