A roof inspection that documents everything, not just what's visible from the ground
We climb, we photograph, and we write down what we find. That's the difference between an inspection and a drive-by guess.

What a proper inspection actually checks
Plenty of 'free inspections' in the GTA are a five-minute look from a ladder before someone hands you a quote for full replacement. A real inspection means getting on the roof, checking the deck, flashing, ventilation, and shingle wear individually, and writing down what's actually found so you can make a decision based on facts.
Deck condition from underneath, where possible
Soft spots in the deck often show from the attic before they're visible from the roof surface. We check both where access allows.
Flashing at every transition point
Chimneys, valleys, and wall transitions are the most common leak origins in this region. Each gets checked individually.
Ventilation balance
Poor attic ventilation accelerates shingle aging and contributes to ice damming in winter. We check intake and exhaust balance, not just look at the vents from outside.
Granule loss and shingle wear pattern
We note wear patterns that indicate age versus wear patterns that indicate a specific defect, since the fix differs for each.
The inspection that's really just a sales pitch
A common complaint we hear across the GTA: someone shows up for a 'free inspection' and leaves with a full-replacement quote regardless of what they actually found. That's not an inspection, it's a script. Homeowners deserve to know if their roof has years of life left or if it genuinely needs work now.
A written report you can use however you want
Our inspections produce a written, photo-documented report. If the roof is fine, we say so. If there's a specific issue, we scope that issue on its own rather than defaulting to full replacement. You can use the report to plan maintenance, negotiate a home sale, or just get peace of mind.
