Roof Inspection Built for Alum Rock Homes

Alum Rock is defined by 1950s–1970s ranch homes, hillside custom builds, and East Foothill estates, and our roof inspection approach reflects that. A roof inspection is worth doing well or not at all. Our inspection process combines walking the roof surface, drone imagery of areas that shouldn't be walked (tile, steep slopes, high hazard), interior attic inspection for ventilation and leak evidence, and moisture-meter testing where staining is present. You receive a written report with photos of every finding, an itemized list of issues, and a professional estimate of remaining roof life — the kind of report buyers, lenders, insurers, and HOAs expect.
