As a faith-based, GAF Certified™ contractor serving Alpharetta, Cumming, Milton, Sandy Springs and the surrounding North Georgia area, we give your roof a thorough, top-to-bottom inspection — shingles, flashing, valleys, penetrations, and the attic — and tell you exactly what we find with develop photos. No scare tactics, no invented problems: just an honest picture of where your roof stands and what, if anything, it needs.

  • Free, no-pressure inspections
  • Full exterior & attic check
  • Photo-documented findings
  • Honest repair-vs-replace guidance

What a Roof Inspection Covers

_

An inspection is not a walk around the yard with binoculars. We get on the roof where it is safe to do so and work through it in order: the shingle field on every elevation, looking for bruising, granule loss, lifted tabs and creasing; ridge and hip caps; the flashing at chimneys, walls, skylights and any other penetration, which is where a disproportionate share of leaks actually start; pipe boots, which crack with age and are easy to miss; and valleys, where water volume is highest.

From there we look at the parts of the system people forget are part of the roof — gutters and downspouts, the drip edge, and where access allows, the attic. Attic staining and daylight through decking tell you things the surface cannot, and they tell you how long a problem has been developing.

What a Roof Inspection Costs

_

Ours are free, and free means free — there is no callout fee, no report fee, and no obligation attached to the estimate that follows. We do not make the inspection conditional on signing anything, and we do not price the work differently depending on how the conversation goes.

It is worth knowing why a roofer offers this at no charge: inspections are how we meet most of our customers, and a fair number of them end with us telling someone their roof has years left. That is a normal outcome, not a wasted visit.

Free Means Free

  • No callout fee
  • No report fee
  • No obligation to hire us

What You Receive Afterward

_

Your Written Report

You leave the visit with a report you can actually read: every finding photographed and dated, written out without the trade jargon, and closed with a straight recommendation — repair it, replace it, keep an eye on it, or leave it alone. The report is yours regardless of whether you hire us, and you are welcome to put it in front of another contractor for a second opinion.

A Clean Bill of Health

A clean bill of health gets written up the same way. Having it on record that your roof was in good shape on a given date carries real weight down the line, especially if a storm rolls through afterward and someone questions when the damage started.

  • Inspected to GAF standards

Inspections & Insurance Claims

A documented inspection is the foundation of a strong storm claim. If we find hail or wind damage, we photograph and report it in the detail your insurer needs, and meet your adjuster on-site to make sure nothing legitimate is missed. When damage is confirmed, the next step is storm damage roof repair.

Roof Inspection FAQ

_
Is a roof inspection really free?

Yes. Our roof inspections are genuinely free and no-pressure. We’ll give you an honest assessment, including telling you when your roof doesn’t need any work.

How long does a roof inspection take?

Most residential roof inspections take about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of your roof. We photograph our findings and walk you through them.

What do you check during an inspection?

We check shingles, flashing, valleys, vents and penetrations, gutters, and the attic for leaks and ventilation issues — the full system, not just a glance from the driveway.

Should I get an inspection before buying or selling a home?

Definitely. A roof inspection protects buyers from inheriting a hidden problem and helps sellers avoid last-minute surprises during the deal. We provide documentation you can share.

Can a roof inspection support an insurance claim?

Yes. If we find storm damage, we document it with the photos and detail your insurer needs, and we can meet your adjuster on-site to support the claim.

How often should I have my roof inspected?

A good rule of thumb is once a year and after any major storm. Older roofs and homes under heavy tree canopy benefit from more frequent checks. Once a roof passes about 15 years, those yearly checks matter more. Here is how long different roofs last in Georgia.

We recently had our roof replaced and had a really great experience. Since it was our first time replacing a roof we appreciated how they explained everything and made the process easy for us. The team was professional, friendly, and right on schedule. Our new roof looks great and we are really glad we chose them. We’d definitely recommend them to our friends and family!

I recently had Encompass Roofing Solutions replace my roof, and I had a great experience. They were very customer-focused without ever being pushy or using a hard sell. They worked with me on the timing and were flexible around my schedule, which I really appreciated. The work quality was excellent, and the finished roof exceeded my expectations. They handled the whole process professionally, and it was much easier than I expected. I would definitely recommend Encompass Roofing Solutions to anyone looking for a roofing company that cares about their customers and does quality work.

I had an excellent experience from the beginning to the end of the roofing of my home. The owners Chris and Ellis went above and beyond to make sure that I was completely satisfied which was greatly appreciated. These two gentlemen are very trustworthy and honor their word, and I had a very good knowledge base for the scope of work as a result of them being thorough in their explanation of the process involved with the care and attention of also protecting my home’s exterior throughout the process. I would recommend them with the confidence to handle any roof roofing scope of work.

Encompass Roofing was a great company to work with through the whole process. Ellis and Chris stopped randomly at our house while working another house in the neighborhood and explained how we could get a new roof and gutters for the cost of our deductible, all based on a hail storm we had the prior summer. Sounded too good to be true, but it’s actually the best thing I could have done for our 15 year old house…! I’d highly recommend them for their attention to detail and timely communication.

Ellis and Chris did an excellent job throughout the entire process, from the initial inspection to completion of our roof and gutters replacement. They communicated effectively with our insurance adjuster from the filing of the initial claim to approval of any supplementals required. The work was completed efficiently without any issues.
