ROOF INSPECTION SERVICES FOR CERTIFICATION

 

Roof Inspection Certification

IMPORTANT! Be prepared for your Roof Certification inspection services. Upon seeing our photos, call us with any concerns, and we will be happy to assist you with any questions at (239) 340-0375.

  1. Do you have any receipts or permits for updates to ROOFING? Please have this information available, as it will definitely help you.
  2. Do you own a mobile home with a metal or rubber membrane roof that you have maintained regularly? Pressure washing or re-sealing is often good practice prior to inspection, although this is not mandated. However, a roof that shows well does better on the inspection.

Why do I need a Roof Certification?

Many underwriters require a documented permit to confirm that your roof is in good standing. In addition, when the roof becomes 15 years or older, the underwriter wants to confirm the roof is in good shape. In conclusion, the roof certification is often required when renewing or switching insurance.

Examples of notable deficiencies

  1. Loose, missing, or deteriorated roofing may be considered non-insurable. Life expectancy on a 3-tab shingle roof is 20 years. Dimensional roofing is 25 years, and metal roofs have a life expectancy of 35 to 50 years. Furthermore, the underwriters require a minimum of 4 years of life expectancy, at which point the roof will be insurable for 1 more year, as the cutoff in life expectancy is 3 years.
