Free Roof Inspection Indianapolis

Free 27-Point Roof Inspection in Indianapolis & Central Indiana

Your roof is the single most important barrier protecting your home from the elements. Yet most homeowners never inspect their roof until something goes wrong – and by then, a small issue has often become a costly repair. ATR Roofing offers a free 27-point roof inspection in Indianapolis that gives you a complete picture of your roof’s condition, with zero cost and zero obligation.

What Our 27-Point Roof Inspection Covers

Our comprehensive inspection goes far beyond a quick glance at your shingles. We systematically evaluate every component of your roofing system to identify existing problems, potential vulnerabilities, and remaining useful life. Here is what we check:

Shingles and Roofing Material

1. Shingle condition – We look for cracking, curling, cupping, blistering, and granule loss that indicates aging or weather damage.
2. Missing shingles – Even a single missing shingle creates a potential entry point for water.
3. Shingle adhesion – We check that shingle tabs are properly sealed and bonded, which is critical for wind resistance.
4. Algae and moss growth – Dark streaks or green growth can indicate moisture retention that accelerates shingle deterioration.

Flashing and Seals

5. Chimney flashing – We inspect the metal flashing and sealant around chimneys for gaps, rust, lifting, or separation from the masonry.
6. Wall flashing – Where the roof meets vertical walls, we check that step flashing and counter flashing are intact and properly sealed.
7. Valley flashing – Roof valleys concentrate water flow and are a common leak point. We verify the flashing is undamaged and properly overlapped.
8. Pipe boot seals – Rubber boots around plumbing vent pipes crack and deteriorate over time. We check every pipe boot for splits, gaps, and compression.
9. Skylight flashing – Skylights require specialized flashing that can fail independently of the surrounding roof. We inspect the full perimeter of each skylight.

Ridge, Hips, and Edges

10. Ridge cap shingles – The ridge is the highest and most wind-exposed part of your roof. We check that ridge cap shingles are secure and properly sealed.
11. Hip shingles – Similar to ridge caps, hip shingles are vulnerable to wind uplift and require their own inspection.
12. Drip edge – The metal drip edge along the eaves and rakes prevents water from wicking under the roofing material. We verify it is present, properly installed, and undamaged.
13. Rake edges – We inspect the edges of the roof along the gable ends for proper shingle overhang and edge metal condition.

Gutters and Drainage

14. Gutter condition – We check for sagging, separation, rust, holes, and improper pitch that could cause water to pool or overflow.
15. Downspout connections – Downspouts must be securely connected to gutters and directed away from the foundation.
16. Gutter debris – Clogged gutters cause water to back up under the roofline. We note excessive debris buildup that needs to be addressed.

Ventilation System

17. Ridge vent – Proper ridge ventilation is critical for regulating attic temperature and preventing moisture buildup. We verify the ridge vent is open and functioning.
18. Soffit vents – Soffit vents provide intake air for the attic ventilation system. We check that they are open, unblocked, and sufficient in number.
19. Attic ventilation balance – The ratio of intake to exhaust ventilation must be correct to prevent heat and moisture problems. We evaluate the overall balance of your ventilation system.
20. Powered vents and turbines – If your roof has powered attic fans or turbine vents, we verify they are operating correctly.

Structural Components

21. Soffit and fascia – We inspect the soffit panels and fascia boards for rot, pest damage, separation, and paint failure.
22. Roof decking – We check for signs of sagging or soft spots in the roof decking that may indicate water damage or structural weakness.
23. Structural integrity – We look for any visible signs of structural movement, sagging ridge lines, or uneven roof planes.

Attic and Interior Indicators

24. Attic moisture and condensation – When accessible, we check the attic for signs of moisture, condensation, or frost on the underside of the decking.
25. Insulation condition – Wet, compressed, or displaced insulation is a strong indicator of current or past roof leaks.
26. Daylight penetration – We look for any points where daylight is visible through the roof structure, indicating gaps or holes.

Overall Assessment

27. Remaining roof life estimate – Based on the overall condition, material type, and age of your roof, we provide an honest estimate of how many years of useful life remain.

When Should You Schedule a Roof Inspection?

Many homeowners only think about their roof when they see a leak, but regular inspections can catch problems early and save you thousands of dollars. We recommend scheduling a free roof inspection in the following situations:

After Severe Weather

Any time your area experiences hail, high winds, heavy rain, or a tornado warning, your roof should be inspected. Storm damage is often invisible from the ground but can cause leaks within weeks or months if left unaddressed. Most storm damage is covered by your homeowner’s insurance, but claims must be filed in a timely manner.

Before Buying or Selling a Home

A roof inspection is one of the most important steps in any real estate transaction. If you are buying, you need to know the true condition and remaining life of the roof before committing to a purchase. If you are selling, a clean inspection report – or a freshly repaired roof – can increase buyer confidence and your home’s market value.

Annual Maintenance

Even if no major weather event has occurred, we recommend an annual roof inspection. Shingles age, flashing sealants dry out, and minor issues develop over time. An annual inspection catches these small problems before they become expensive repairs. The best times for annual inspections in Indiana are spring (after winter ice and snow) and fall (before winter weather arrives).

If Your Roof Is 15 Years or Older

Most asphalt shingle roofs in Indiana have a functional lifespan of 20 to 25 years, depending on the quality of materials and installation. Once your roof passes the 15-year mark, annual inspections become especially important for tracking deterioration and planning ahead for replacement.

If You Notice Interior Warning Signs

Do not wait for a full-blown leak. Schedule an inspection immediately if you notice any of these interior warning signs:

• Water stains on ceilings or walls
• Peeling paint or bubbling wallpaper near the roofline
• Musty odors in the attic or upper floors
• Visible mold or mildew in the attic
• Increasing energy bills (which can indicate poor attic ventilation or insulation problems)
