Roof Inspections in Minneapolis, MN
A real inspection is more than a pair of binoculars from the driveway. We walk the roof, check the attic, and deliver a written report with photos — the kind of documentation buyers, insurers, and lenders in Minnesota actually accept.
Our standard inspection covers shingle condition and remaining life, flashing at every penetration, gutters and drainage, attic ventilation and insulation depth, moisture staining on decking, and — specific to our climate — evidence of past ice dam damage and freeze-thaw shingle cracking. You get a photo-annotated report with honest repair-versus-replace guidance.
Minneapolis homeowners call us for four situations: pre-listing and pre-purchase inspections (older Twin Cities housing stock hides decades of layered repairs), insurance-mandated inspections on aging roofs, post-storm claim documentation, and the annual pre-winter check that catches small failures before they become February emergencies.

- Photo-annotated written report within 24 hours

Roof Inspections — common questions
What does a roof inspection cost?
Storm-damage and estimate inspections are free. Formal documented inspections for real estate or insurance purposes run $150–$300 depending on roof size and report requirements, credited toward any work you do with us within 90 days.
How often should a Minneapolis roof be inspected?
Once a year, ideally in fall before the snow arrives, plus after any hail event with stones of one inch or larger. Minneapolis weather is harder on roofs than almost any major US metro — annual inspection is cheap insurance.
