Jersey City Roofers Pros handles roof inspection as a documented, photo-backed review of every layer above your living space. Snow and ice sit on pitched roofs for weeks each winter, while salt-laden Hudson River air corrodes flashing and fasteners. Call 201-778-9628 to schedule a full walk of the rooftop, attic, and roofline.

Roof inspection on a brownstone's slate roof differs from checking a waterfront tower's TPO membrane. We start at the eave, walk the field course, and photograph every penetration on the hip, gable, verge, and dormer.

Slate, clay tile, concrete tile, cedar shake, and wood shake get a tap test and a moisture meter reading. Metal panel, standing-seam panel, and corrugated panel roofs get a fastener check for overdriven screws and backed-out nails.

Salt-laden Hudson River air corrodes gutters, fasteners, and metal along the roofline. Older roofing still hides tar, roofing felt, or tar paper under the shingles, which tells us how the deck was built.

What's Included

A full rooftop walk of shingles, underlayment, and flashing, with photos of every defect we find.

Attic and interior review of insulation, vapor barrier, and roof deck for stains, rot, or decay.

Ventilation check on ridge vent, soffit vent, attic fan, vent boot, and pipe boot condition.

Gutter, fascia, soffit, and downspout inspection where rot starts, plus overhang, canopy, and awning joints that leak first.

Moisture meter and infrared scan readings wherever plywood, OSB, or the substrate has cupped over a purlin, batten, or counterbatten.

Drone imagery on steep slate or clay tile, plus a snow guard and anchor check on metal panel roofs.

A written report with photo evidence, waterproofing and weatherproofing notes, and a line-item roof estimate, plus mastic, caulk, and sealant conditions called out by location.

Signs You Need Roof Inspection

Rust or brown stains on an upstairs ceiling usually mean water is seeping through the underlayment above.

Granule loss in the gutter points to asphalt shingle, architectural shingle, or three-tab shingle breakdown.

Curling, flaking, or missing tabs along a south-facing rake signal end-of-life wear from UV.

A lifted ridge cap, torn drip edge, or loose verge flashing after a nor'easter lets rain reach the ridge beam and rafters.

Crumbling chimney mortar or a loose cap means chimney flashing, counter-flashing, and apron flashing need a closer look.

A sagging roofline over a gambrel or mansard section points to a rafter, joist, or truss problem underneath.

Our Roof Inspection Process

We take your call, ask about the building type, and arrive with a ladder, roofing square, moisture meter, and safety harness.

We scope the roof from the ground first, then walk it when pitch and weather allow, keeping scaffold off wet slate.

We open the attic and probe the roof deck with a pry bar, checking insulation, sheathing, and decking for wicking or soft spots.

We inspect each flashing family on its own: step flashing, counter-flashing, apron flashing, boot flashing, and pipe flashing.

We flag building code items that affect a re-roof, then record drone imagery, an infrared scan, and moisture readings.

If repairs are needed we leave a line-item roof estimate; if not, the written report is yours with no pressure to book.
