Roof Shingles Inspection

With our thorough inspection, we look for loose or missing shingles, loss of granules or any hail or wind damage that will compromise your roofing system. We also look for any blistering due to moisture buildup or bad ventilation.

Roof Edging

Remember the edges of the roof receive the most moisture, so having the proper drip edge installed is important so water doesn’t get under the shingles and cause damage. Roof edge flashing can help stabilize your roof during strong rain and wind events.

Drip Edge Inspection

Drip edges are installed at the edge of the roof beneath the roofing and hangs over the sides of the roof. MDR ensures the drip edge was installed correctly by inspecting both the eaves and rakes.

Eaves & Rakes Inspection

Eaves and rakes are the areas of a roof which hang beyond the roofing line and exterior wall. They are designed to keep rain, snow and debris away from the walls of the house. We check the starter strip and correct improper installation.

Inspection of Valleys

Heavy rains and winter snowmelt can cause rapid water, which, if not properly flashed can penetrate underneath the shingles. MDR inspects all valleys (where all of your roof planes meet) for proper flashing materials to avoid damage.

Nail Head Inspection

MDR will inspect your roof. It is not uncommon for nails to loosen and pop through shingles as the roof ages. This can create a leak which could be costly to repair if not caught early.

Where Workmanship Meets Accountability

We include a standard 2-year workmanship warranty on every project. If an issue comes from the installation, we handle it. If it’s a material defect, it’s covered by the manufacturer. Extended warranty options may be available depending on the system you choose
