Roof Inspection in Lincoln, NE

A roof inspection tells you where your roof stands before small problems turn into big ones. It's especially worth doing after a hail storm, or before you buy or sell a house.

When to get one

  • After a hail or wind storm in your part of Lincoln
  • Before you buy a house, or before you list one
  • When the roof is getting close to the end of its rated life
  • If you've noticed stains, granules in the gutters, or missing shingles

What a roofer looks at

Shingle condition and granule loss, hail hits, flashing, vent boots, gutters, signs of soft decking, and the attic, for leaks and ventilation. Ask for photos so you can see what they saw.
