Real estate moves fast, and you need a team that can keep up. Whether it’s a quick repair before closing, help after an inspection, or a full replacement, we’re here to make your job easier.

Our teams are available with quick scheduling, affordable pricing, and the flexibility needed to make your transaction seamless.

And because we’re licensed as both a Certified Roofing Contractor and a Certified Building Contractor, a report that turns up more than a roof problem does not send you looking for a second contractor with the clock running.

Benefits of a pre-listing inspectionknow before the buyer does

While it may seem like a pointless investment to re-roof your home when you’re looking to sell, it helps to meet with a contractor and real estate agent before listing so you know the current state of your roof.

We hear from homeowners too often that a sale fell through due to a bad inspection and repair costs the sellers weren’t prepared to handle. We’ll come out and perform a roof inspection to let you know the estimated lifespan remaining so you know what to expect on the inspection report.

Real estate packagespriced up front

Three ways agents use us during a transaction. Pricing is stated up front so you can tell your client what it costs before you pick up the phone.

Starting at $350

Pre-listing inspection + tune-up

Our team will perform an inspection providing the lifespan and condition of the roof with an affidavit. We'll perform any small repairs caught during an inspection, such as nail pops or lifted shingles, and remove any dry debris from the roof.

$150

Roof inspection with affidavit

As licensed roofing professionals, we'll perform a full inspection of the roof to note any damage, potential leaks, and remaining lifespan. Any small repairs requiring less than 1/4 tube of sealant are included.

$0

Pay at closing

We understand that replacing a roof is an investment. If the funds aren't immediately available, our team will work with agents and homeowners to replace the roof and receive funds at closing to lessen the burden, all done in house with an open line of communication between the project team.

Real estatequestions we get asked

We'll inspect your roof and provide a written report with photo evidence of any issues, estimated lifespan, and current materials. Any small repairs, such as nail pops or lifted shingles, are performed on-site during the inspection to show they've been corrected and no longer pose an issue. We also clear dry debris off the roof while we are up there, so the roof photographs well for the listing.

It's simple. We'll estimate the projects needed for the seller (or buyer!) and provide a written contract with the needed repairs or replacement cost. Once the contract is signed and the closing date is confirmed, our team schedules close to the day of closing to cause minimum disruption to sellers and buyers alike. We'll provide a Certificate of Completion and finished photos to the title agency along with our invoice and contract, and we'll handle the check coordination with them after closing so it can be deducted from the funds paid out. It's one less thing to worry about when selling your home.

The pre-listing inspection with tune-up starts at $350, and a roof inspection with affidavit on its own is $150. The tune-up package is the one most listing agents ask for, because the small corrections happen on the spot rather than turning into a repair request later. Larger properties or steep and complex roofs can price above the starting figure, and we will tell you that before we schedule rather than after.

It is a signed statement from a licensed roofing contractor recording what we found on the roof: damage, potential leaks and remaining lifespan. We provide one with both the $150 inspection and the $350 pre-listing package. Agents typically ask for it so there is a document from a licensed roofer in the file rather than a verbal opinion about how much life the roof has left.

Usually, yes. That is most of why agents call us. Real estate moves fast and you need a team that can keep up, so our teams are available with quick scheduling, affordable pricing and the flexibility needed to make your transaction seamless. Call or text (904) 707-6546 with the address and the closing date and we will tell you honestly whether we can hit it. If we cannot, you will hear that immediately rather than three days before closing.

Because a bad roof report is one of the more common ways a sale falls apart. While it may seem like a pointless investment to re-roof your home when you're looking to sell, it helps to meet with a contractor and real estate agent before listing so you know the current state of your roof. We hear from homeowners too often that a sale fell through due to a bad inspection and repair costs the sellers weren't prepared to handle. We'll come out and perform a roof inspection to let you know the estimated lifespan remaining so you know what to expect on the inspection report.

Yes. We are just as happy estimating for a buyer who has come out of an inspection with a roof problem as we are for a listing agent getting ahead of one. The pay-at-closing option is written for either side. We work with agents and homeowners to replace the roof and receive funds at closing, and we handle the coordination with the title agency ourselves.
