Key Takeaways
A professional roof assessment is a useful first step for a roofing concern. Here is what Highlander may review while preparing a free estimate.
Before the Inspection
We'll schedule a convenient time and ask a few basic questions about your roof's age, any known issues, and your concerns.
During the Inspection (30–60 Minutes)
Exterior Assessment
- Shingle/metal panel condition
- Flashing integrity (chimneys, vents, walls)
- Gutter and drainage system
- Soffit and fascia condition
- Ridge cap and valley condition
- Visible penetration sealing
Interior Assessment (if accessible)
- Attic ventilation check
- Insulation condition
- Signs of moisture or leaks
- Structural integrity of roof deck
Documentation
We photograph everything — good and bad — so you have a complete record of your roof's current condition.
After the Inspection
You'll receive:
- Written condition report with photos

- Transparent cost estimate if work is needed
- No pressure. The report is yours whether you hire us or not.
