Roof Inspection in Edgewater, CO

A Red Hawk inspection covers all field shingles, ridge and hip caps, valleys, flashings (chimney, sidewall, step, kick-out), pipe boots, vents, skylights, gutters, and downspouts. We photo-document every defect, measure hail strike density per slope, check attic ventilation, and produce a written report in adjuster-ready format. We also note any code-mandated upgrades that would apply if replacement is needed. The whole inspection is free, with no obligation, and takes 45–75 minutes for most Front Range homes.

A standard residential roof inspection takes 45 to 75 minutes from arrival to handoff. The on-roof portion is 20–30 minutes, attic check 10–15 minutes, and report compilation 15–20 minutes. Larger or steeper homes, multi-story commercial, or post-storm hail mapping can extend to 2 hours. The written report with photos is typically delivered within 24 hours by email. Same-day verbal summary is provided before we leave so you know the verdict immediately.

Colorado homeowners should schedule a professional roof inspection annually, plus an extra inspection within 30 days of any major hail or wind event. Annual inspections catch wear before it becomes a leak and preserve manufacturer warranty eligibility — most warranties require documented maintenance. Pre-listing inspections are also smart before selling. Red Hawk's inspections are free year-round in our Front Range service area; spring (after hail season) and fall (before winter) are the highest-value times.
