Your roof works hard every single day to protect your family from Illinois storms, snow, and summer heat. But because it’s out of sight, potential problems are often out of mind—until a leak starts.

Our Exclusive 10-Point Inspection Report

We don't just glance at your shingles and guess. Every free inspection comes with a detailed PDF Report sent right to your inbox. We break down the condition of your roof into 10 clear, easy-to-understand categories so you know exactly where you stand.

1. Type and Condition of Roof Covering

We identify exactly what materials are on your roof and assess their current physical state. Are the shingles brittle? Curling? Missing granules? We document it all.

2. Condition of Roof Accessories

Your roof is a system that includes chimneys, skylights, pipe boots, and vents. These are often the first places leaks start. We check the flashing and seals around every accessory to ensure they are watertight.

3. Quantity of Roof Accessories

We take an accurate inventory of every penetration on your roof. This is vital for understanding your roof's complexity and ensuring accurate estimates for any future work.

4. Attic Exhaust Ventilation Check

A roof needs to breathe! Poor ventilation can cook your shingles in the summer and cause ice dams in the winter. We check your exhaust levels to ensure your attic is venting heat and moisture properly.

5. Code Compliance Status (Applicable on Replacement)

Building codes change over time. If your roof was installed 15+ years ago, it might not meet current safety standards. We let you know if your current system is up to code (which is especially important if you are planning a replacement).

6. Damage Assessment

We look for specific damage caused by wind, hail, or falling debris. We provide a list of damaged areas so you have a record of exactly what needs attention.

7. Water & Ice Penetration Risk

We identify "red flag" areas where water or ice is likely to enter your home. Catching these vulnerabilities now can save you thousands in drywall and insulation repairs later.

8. Estimated Life Remaining

Is your roof good for another 5 years, or is it on its last legs? We give you an honest professional estimate of how much life is left in your current roof covering.

9. Maintenance Recommendations

Sometimes a full replacement isn't necessary—just a little TLC. We provide simple maintenance tips (like caulking a flashing or clearing debris) to help you extend the life of your roof.

10. Replacement Cost Reference

Even if you don't need a roof today, it’s good to budget for the future. We provide a reference cost for what a replacement would look like, so you aren't caught off guard down the road.
