SunCraft scopes this work with photos, roof-condition notes, material fit, and a plain recommendation. The point is to make the decision obvious before the crew is on site.

Typical scope

  • inspection appointments
  • photo documentation
  • roof age and material notes
  • repair-vs-replace guidance

What this service actually solves

What a documented roof inspection should actually include.

A useful inspection is more than a guy on a ladder eyeballing the shingles. It is photos of every roof face, notes on flashing, drainage, penetrations, ventilation, and prior repairs, an honest read on roof age, and a plain recommendation. If the report does not tell you what is wrong AND what is fine, it is not a real inspection.

The decision: A written record that supports either action or patience. If the roof has years left, the report should say so.

What SunCraft checks for roof inspections

  • Every roof face photographed, not just the visible side from the ground
  • Flashing at chimneys, skylights, walls, and penetrations
  • Underlayment age signals and any visible deck conditions
  • Drainage, gutter, and scupper performance
  • Repair history visible on the roof itself

Common questions

About Roof inspections.

Answers to the questions most owners ask before approving roof work. Reach out if your situation needs a different conversation.

How long does a roof inspection take?

Most residential inspections run 30-60 minutes on site. Commercial roofs take longer depending on size, drains, and penetrations. The documentation usually follows within a day or two.

What do I get from the inspection?

Photos, condition notes, and a plain recommendation. If the roof needs repair, SunCraft writes the scope. If it does not need work yet, the report says that too.

Roof repair or roof replacement: how to make the call without guessing

The decision is rarely about age alone. Look at deck condition, leak pattern, material fatigue, and the cost of repeated spot repairs.
