Step-by-Step Guide to Inspecting Your Tile Roof Before Hiring Contractors

Before hiring tile roof contractors for your new construction roofing project, conducting a basic inspection of your tile roof can help you understand its condition and communicate your needs clearly to contractors.

Follow these inspection steps:

• Check for Broken or Missing Tiles : Damaged or missing tiles should be noted for repair or replacement.

• Inspect Flashing and Sealants: Look for cracks or gaps around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys.

• Look for Signs of Water Damage: Inspect the attic and ceilings for leaks, stains, or mold.

• Evaluate Roof Slope and Drainage: Ensure proper drainage to prevent water pooling that damages tiles.

• Document Findings: Take photos and notes to share with your contractor for accurate estimates.
