Most homeowners never think about their roof until something goes wrong. A professional inspection catches small issues before they turn into expensive repairs or insurance headaches. Gary Thompson climbs every roof he inspects and checks it section by section, from the ridge cap down to the eave drip edge.
The inspection covers the full roofing system, not just the visible surface. That means checking the condition of shingles, tiles, or flat membrane for wear and damage. Examining every flashing point around chimneys, vents, walls, and skylights. Looking at gutter connections, fascia boards, and soffit ventilation. And checking the attic space for signs of moisture intrusion, insulation problems, or inadequate airflow.
After the inspection, you get a written report with photographs documenting every finding. The report explains what Gary found in plain language, rates the overall condition of your roof, identifies anything that needs attention now, and notes areas to watch going forward. If repairs are needed, you get a separate estimate with no obligation.
Common reasons homeowners schedule an inspection: buying or selling a home and needing documentation of roof condition, following up after a major windstorm or hailstorm, checking a roof that's over 15 years old as part of routine maintenance, or investigating a suspected leak or moisture problem before it spreads.
Call or fill out the form. Gary will confirm a time that works for you, usually within a few days. Let him know if the inspection is for a purchase, insurance, or general maintenance.
Gary gets on the roof and works through a systematic checklist covering every material surface, flashing point, drainage path, and structural element. He photographs everything as he goes.
If accessible, Gary checks the attic for moisture stains, insulation gaps, and ventilation flow. These interior signs often reveal problems the exterior doesn't show.
You receive a clear written report with photos, condition ratings, and Gary's honest recommendation. If anything needs work, he'll provide a separate repair or replacement estimate.
An inspection is only useful if the person doing it has the experience to know what matters and the honesty to tell you what they found.
Gary has inspected thousands of roofs across Riverside County. He spots early-stage failures that less experienced inspectors walk right past, because he's seen every stage of every problem over three decades of work.
No vague generalities or generic checklists. Your report includes dated photos of every finding, a plain-language explanation of what each issue means, and a prioritized list of what needs attention now versus later.
Some companies offer free inspections as a way to sell replacements. Gary charges fairly for his time and tells you exactly what he sees. If your roof is in good shape, the report will say so, even though it means no follow-up sale.
