How long does a roof inspection take?

A standard inspection takes about an hour on a typical Cobb County home; larger or steeper roofs take longer.

Do you provide the inspection photos?

Yes. Photos are part of the written report, so you keep the evidence whether or not you hire us.

Is the inspection really free?

The inspection itself is offered at no cost. Any repair work is quoted separately and only after you approve the scope.

TL;DR: Index depends on what the inspection finds and what your policy says.

What local conditions change

North Georgia roofs run a shorter service life than the national figures suggest, because pine debris holds moisture on the deck and summer UV degrades granules faster than the manufacturer's warranty curve assumes. A slope shaded by trees fails years before an exposed one of the same age.

That is why the useful local question is not the roof's age but its condition slope by slope. Two slopes on the same house routinely differ by several years of remaining life.

Which slope fails first on a Cobb County roof?

Usually the one facing south-west, and any slope under tree cover. Both get more heat or more debris than their neighbours.

Does shade help or hurt?

It helps with UV and hurts with moisture. Shaded slopes grow algae and hold debris, so they dry out more slowly after rain.

The usual failure here is not the material, it is the transition detail at a penetration — which is why that detail gets checked first.
