Roof Inspection in Englewood, 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.

Englewood asphalt roof replacements typically run $15,000 to $25,000, with most Northwest Englewood and Belleview homes landing $15,000–$25,000 for Class 4 impact-resistant installs. Older Centennial Acres and Bates Logan Park bungalows with steep pitches and older decking often need $400–$1,500 in tear-off-revealed adders. As Red Hawk's HQ city, Englewood gets the fastest dispatch and most direct access to our project management team. Free written estimates from the HQ line at (970) 676-6129 with line-item pricing.

Yes — Englewood sits on the same supercell track as Centennial and Aurora. The ground record shows 5 documented hail days within 10 miles of the city between 2021 and 2026, all confirmed by NWS storm spotters, the largest a 2.0-inch measurement on June 22, 2023 (16 ground reports). Englewood's older housing stock means many roofs have multi-decade cumulative hail damage that's claim-eligible. Red Hawk pulls NOAA records for every estimate and our HQ proximity means we can respond to storm calls within minutes.

The City of Englewood requires a building permit for every tear-off and reroof, issued through Community Development at 1000 Englewood Pkwy. Permit fees run $90–$220 with 3–7 business day review. Code requires synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water shield, and proper drip edge. Red Hawk pulls all permits and handles the post-install inspection — homeowners never file paperwork. Arapahoe County permits unincorporated areas around Englewood separately.
