What you get from a free inspection
You get photos of what we found on the roof and in the attic, so you can see the condition yourself instead of taking our word for it. Then you get an honest read, sorted three ways: what needs action now, what can wait, and what is fine. If work is needed, you get a written scope and a firm price before anything starts. The inspection itself costs nothing, and you are under no obligation to hire us.
Most of the time the answer is good news. Plenty of roofs that worry their owners have years left, and when that is the case we say so and leave. When a roof really is near the end, we show you the photos that prove it and explain why. Our repair or replace guide walks through how we make that call.
When to get your roof inspected
- You see a stain or a drip. Water travels before it shows on a ceiling, so the leak is often not where the stain is. An inspection finds the real entry point. If it needs fixing, our roof repair page covers how we handle it.
- After hail or a windstorm. Storm damage is easy to miss from the ground. For hail and wind, see our storm damage and insurance claims page; the inspection is free there too, and we tell you honestly whether a claim makes sense.
- You are buying or selling a house. Knowing the roof's real condition before closing heads off surprises for both sides.
- Your insurance company asks about the roof. If your insurer wants roof issues addressed, we can show you exactly what is wrong and what it takes to fix it.
- The roof is getting older. A check on an aging roof tells you whether to plan for a roof replacement soon or keep it going with small repairs.
- The attic feels like an oven, or you get ice dams. That usually points to ventilation or insulation, which our attic insulation and ventilation page explains.
Who does the inspection
Our owner, Scott Mason, is a Purdue trained construction engineer, and he reads a roof on the decking, the shingles, and the flashing, not on a sales quota. We are licensed in Indiana (license GL2500087), insured, and a TAMKO Certified Contractor. We do not send a salesperson to look at your roof and come back with a replacement contract. If a repair solves it, we quote the repair.
If you are comparing companies, our guide on how to choose the best roofer in Indianapolis lists what to ask any roofer, us included. And if the inspection does point to a new roof, our roof cost guide explains what moves the price.
