Inspecting a Roof

Here's how it works:
Please give us a call at (336) 768-5992. Office Manager Connie Yokeley is in the office from 10 am to 2 pm (Monday-Friday) to answer any questions you may have. We serve a radius of 40 miles from Winston-Salem.
Arrange to have the utilities turned on and fuel available for the furnace (if applicable).
Familarize yourself with our Pre-Inspection Agreement, which gives you a firm understanding of what to expect. The Agreement must be signed before we can begin our inspection.
Meet us at the home, if possible, so you can accompany us on the inspection and see the process firsthand. For a single-family home, a normal inspection takes at least three hours and includes structural components such as foundation, floors, roof, ceilings, and stairways, physical elements (grounds, driveways, drainage systems, ventilation, fireplaces, chimneys, etc.), and mechanical systems such as plumbing and wiring, furnaces, air conditioners, and other major appliances.
We will give you a written report of the findings, and a photo record of our findings. You'll know what needs to be repaired or replaced.
