Roof Inspection

Know exactly where your roof stands, before small issues grow.

Overview

Roof Inspection You Can Depend On

Most roof problems start small and stay hidden until they've caused internal damage — a slipped tile, a cracked seal or perished flashing can go unnoticed from ground level for months. Advanced Roofers Ltd offers thorough, hands-on roof inspections carried out by experienced roofers, giving you an honest, detailed picture of your roof's condition rather than a guess from the pavement.

Our inspections cover the full roof — tiles or slates, ridge and hip lines, valleys, flashing around chimneys and abutments, guttering and, where accessible, the loft space and timbers from below. We check for the early warning signs of bigger problems: slipped or cracked coverings, failing pointing, damaged flashing and any evidence of water ingress.

A roof inspection is one of the most useful things you can commission before buying or selling a property, ahead of winter to catch issues before storm season, or following a suspected leak, storm damage or insurance event where you need clear, professional evidence of the roof's condition.

Every inspection is followed by a straightforward written report setting out what we found, in plain language, along with photographs and our honest recommendation — whether that's no action needed, routine maintenance, a targeted repair, or something more significant.
