How often should a roof be inspected for deficiencies?

A roof should be inspected at least once a year, ideally in the spring when temperatures are starting to rise and snow is beginning to melt. It’s important to inspect your roof regularly as even minor damage can lead to extensive water damage if not addressed promptly. During an inspection, a professional can look for loose flashing or missing shingles, cracked sealant, rust on metal components, and any other signs of wear and tear. Roof inspections should also be done after any stormy weather since strong winds or hail can cause significant damage that must be repaired quickly. Regularly inspecting your roof will help to identify small problems before they become bigger issues and save you time and money in the long run.
