Roof inspection with no obligation
Clear findings and recommendations you can keep
If it can wait, we say so
HIC #2120969-DCWP, insured crews
What we check
A quick glance from the ground misses most problems. A real inspection looks at the whole roof system, inside and out.
Missing, cracked or lifted shingles, damaged tile, granule loss, curling, blistering and general wear.
Chimneys, vents, skylights, valleys and wall joints. Failed flashing is behind a large share of roof leaks.
Clogs, sagging, loose sections and whether water is leaving the roof and the house properly.
Water stains, daylight, damp insulation, poor ventilation and signs of structural trouble that you cannot see from outside.
Sagging, soft spots and uneven areas that can point to deck damage or trapped moisture.
Clear documentation with photos and plain-English recommendations, so you know what matters and what does not.
When to book
Do not wait for a leak. These are the moments when an inspection pays for itself.
A routine check catches small issues early, and matters more as a roof ages past 15 to 20 years.
Wind, hail and fallen branches can damage a roof without obvious signs from the ground.
Get an objective view of the roof's condition and remaining life so there are no surprises at closing.
A stain, a drip, missing shingles or granules in the gutters all deserve a prompt look.
Do not ignore the signs
Roofs usually warn you before they fail. Here is what to watch for, and what you get once we have looked.
✓ Curling, cracked or missing shingles
✓ Granules collecting in your gutters
✓ Water stains on ceilings or walls
✓ Daylight in the attic or a musty smell
✓ A sagging roofline or rising energy bills
✓ A written report with photos of what we found
✓ A plain answer: fine, repair or replace
✓ A written estimate if work is needed
✓ Honest timing: what is urgent and what can wait
✓ No pressure and no obligation to hire us
What to expect
Inspections are simple and low-disruption. Here is how it works so you can plan.
Our roof inspection is free, and so is the written estimate if repairs or replacement turn out to be needed.
It depends on the size and complexity of your roof and how easy the attic is to reach. We tell you the expected time when we book.
We need to reach the roof and the attic hatch. Clear the path and let us know about pets or alarms.
We work from a dry roof for safety. If the weather is bad, we reschedule, or start inside with the attic.

Customer reviews
★★★★★
“After that crazy storm, I thought my roof was a goner. Proline came out the same day, patched the leak, and gave me an estimate for the damage. They were honest, the price was fair, and now my roof looks better than ever!”
Sarah T. · Staten Island, NY
★★★★★
“My sister's house had roof damage after the last big storm while she was away. I called Proline, they came quickly, gave me a quote that was very reasonable, and a few days later the job was done. Quality work, clean, polite and efficient you couldn't ask for more.”
Dr. Louis Vastola · Staten Island, NY

“Working in the rain isn't easy, but proline roofing stayed focused and got our roof taken care of efficiently. They made sure everything was properly secured and waterproofed before calling it a day. Great communication throughout the process!”

FAQ
Yes. The inspection and the written estimate for any work are free, with no obligation to hire us.
No. If your roof is fine or a small repair will do, we say so. If it can wait six months, we tell you that. An honest answer is how we earn a call next time.
Once or twice a year is a good habit, especially for roofs past 15 to 20 years old, and after any major storm. Newer roofs can go longer between checks.
Someone should be there to give us attic access, or arrange access with us in advance. You do not need to follow us around.
A general home inspection usually covers the roof briefly. A roofing inspection goes deeper on the roof system itself: flashing, decking, attic and drainage, with photos.
Photos and written findings document existing damage, which can support a claim. Coverage depends on your policy. See storm damage repair.
Yes. A roof inspection tells both sides the condition and likely remaining life, which helps with negotiating repairs or price.
We explain it, show you the photos and give you options in writing: a repair, a replacement or keeping an eye on it. Learn about roof replacement and maintenance plans.
