Roof Inspection in Georgia & Florida — Plus Wind-Mitigation Reports

Know Your Roof’s Real Condition
Why a Professional Roof Inspection Is Worth It
A roof can look perfectly fine from the driveway and still be days away from a leak. From the ground you can’t see hail bruising, lifted flashing, cracked pipe boots, worn valleys, or the failing underlayment beneath Florida tile. A professional roof inspection gets on the roof and into the attic to find those problems while they’re still small — and gives you a written, photo-backed report you can actually act on.
Homeowners across Georgia and Florida call us for inspections at four key moments: after a storm, before buying or selling a home, when a roof reaches the age where insurers start asking questions, and as routine maintenance to extend a roof’s life. In every case, our goal is the same — tell you the truth about your roof, with pictures, and never sell you work you don’t need.
What We Inspect For
Our Roof Inspections Cover
Storm & Hail Damage
Bruised shingles, dented metal, wind-lifted edges, and cracked tile — documented for a possible insurance claim.
Leaks & Moisture
Active and hidden leaks, attic moisture, and staining traced back toward the true source of the water.
Flashing & Penetrations
Chimneys, skylights, vents, and pipe boots — the seams where most leaks actually begin.
Tile & Underlayment
On Florida tile roofs we check for slipped and cracked tile and the condition of the waterproof layer beneath.
Ventilation & Decking
Attic ventilation, ridge vents, and signs of decking rot — key in the Southeast’s heat and humidity.
Wind-Mitigation Features
In Florida we document the wind-resistant features insurers reward — on the state’s uniform report form.
Florida Homeowners
The Florida Wind-Mitigation Inspection Explained
If you own a home in Florida, a wind-mitigation inspection is one of the easiest ways to potentially lower your insurance premium. Florida law encourages insurers to give credits for roofs and homes built or upgraded to resist high winds, and a wind-mitigation report is how you prove your home qualifies. The inspection is documented on Florida’s uniform mitigation verification form and looks at the specific features insurers reward.
Roof Shape
Hip roofs shed wind better than gable roofs and often earn a stronger credit.
Roof Deck Attachment
How the deck is fastened to the trusses — nail type and spacing — affects uplift resistance.
Roof-to-Wall Connection
Clips, straps, or wraps that tie the roof to the walls are a major factor in the report.
Secondary Water Barrier
A sealed layer beneath the covering that helps keep water out if the surface is breached.
Because the exact credits depend on your insurer and policy, we can’t promise a specific dollar amount — but many Florida homeowners find the potential savings well worth the inspection. If you’re getting a new roof through a storm claim or a replacement, it’s the perfect time to capture those upgrades on a report.

Roof Inspection FAQ
Inspection Questions, Answered
Is your roof inspection really free?
Our standard roof inspection is free, with no obligation. We climb the roof, check the attic where accessible, and give you a written report with photos. If we find nothing wrong, we’ll tell you that too — we don’t sell work you don’t need.
What is a wind-mitigation inspection and can it lower my insurance?
It’s a Florida inspection that documents wind-resistant features — roof shape, deck attachment, roof-to-wall connections, and a secondary water barrier — on the state’s uniform form. Insurers may offer premium credits for qualifying features. The exact savings depend on your policy and insurer, so we can’t promise a set amount, but many homeowners find it worthwhile.
Should I get a roof inspection before buying a home?
Yes. A pre-purchase inspection tells you the roof’s real condition and remaining life before you close, which can affect negotiation and budgeting. It’s especially valuable in Florida, where roof age directly affects whether — and at what cost — you can insure the home.
How often should I have my roof inspected?
A good rule of thumb is once a year and after any major storm. In the Southeast, where hail, hurricanes, heat, and humidity all take a toll, regular inspections catch small problems before they become expensive ones and help you get the full life out of your roof.
Do you inspect for storm damage after a hurricane or hailstorm?
Absolutely. Post-storm inspections are one of the most important things we do — we document hail, wind, and hurricane damage with photos so you have the evidence for a possible claim. See our storm damage and insurance claims pages.
