Do you inspect commercial roofs too?
Yes. RAFTRx can review commercial roofing concerns, leaks, storm damage, maintenance needs, and replacement planning depending on the building and roof type.

Some issues become more visible over time as granules loosen, bruised areas age, or water begins entering weakened spots. That is why post-storm review is useful.

Many roof inspections are fairly quick, but timing depends on roof size, slope, access, damage concerns, and whether interior leak areas also need to be reviewed.

What is the difference between a roof inspection and a roof estimate?
A roof inspection focuses on condition and visible issues. A roof estimate focuses on projected repair or replacement scope and pricing after the roof has been reviewed.

Not always. Some roofs need repair, some need monitoring, and some may justify replacement depending on the amount, location, age, and severity of damage.
Is a roof estimate the same as an insurance claim estimate?
No. A contractor estimate explains repair or replacement scope and cost. An insurance estimate is issued by the insurance company or adjuster under your policy terms.
Do you answer questions before I book?
Yes. Use the form to describe your concern and RAFTRx can follow up about the best inspection or estimate option for your roof.

Safety comes first. Depending on the roof, inspection may involve ground review, ladder access, drone/photo options, or another safe documentation method.

Yes. A pre-season check can find weak spots, missing shingles, exposed fasteners, old pipe boots, and maintenance items before severe weather arrives.
