Direct Answer
Roof inspection cost depends on the scope — a basic condition inspection, a real estate inspection with documentation, or a detailed inspection with a written report or roof letter. We explain what's included before we come out. For many situations, the inspection pays for itself by catching problems early.
An inspection tells you the true condition of your roof, remaining life, and any needed repairs. The scope determines the cost.
Inspection Types
- Basic condition inspection — overall health and obvious issues
- Real estate inspection — condition, remaining life, and documentation for a transaction
- Detailed inspection with report/letter — written documentation for lenders, insurers, or records
