Free Roof Inspections in Arizona

A roof inspection should answer one question honestly: what condition is your roof actually in? At Arizona Roofers a roofer goes on the roof — not just a drone flyover from the driveway — photographs every problem area, and gives you a written report you can use to plan a repair, negotiate a home sale or support an insurance claim. In most cases it is free.

We inspect tile, shingle, flat, foam and metal roofs on homes and commercial buildings across the Phoenix metro, Tucson and Flagstaff. We are a licensed Arizona roofing contractor (ROC#356304 and ROC#356639) and we answer the phone 24/7. See all our Arizona roofing services.

When you should book a roof inspection

• After a monsoon storm. Arizona’s monsoon runs from June 15 to September 30. Wind, sideways rain and hail can crack tile and lift shingles without any leak showing yet.
• Before buying or selling a home. A roof report helps buyers know what they are getting and sellers fix issues before they become negotiating points.
• When you see a stain, drip or loose tile. The earlier a leak is found, the smaller the repair.
• Once a year as maintenance. Especially on tile roofs over 15–20 years old, where the underlayment beneath the tile is wearing out.
• For insurance. A documented “before” condition makes it easier to show that later storm damage is new.

What our roof inspection covers

Types of roof inspections we do

Free residential roof inspection

A full on-roof inspection with photos and a written summary of what we found, what needs attention now, and what can wait. If repairs are needed, you get a written scope and price — and no pressure to book them.

Storm damage and insurance inspections

After wind or hail we document the damage before anything is moved, so you have a clear record for your insurer, and we can meet the adjuster on the roof. See what hail damage looks like and our roof insurance claim help.

Real estate inspections

Buyers, sellers and agents use our reports to understand a roof’s condition and remaining life before closing. We focus on the roof itself in more depth than a general home inspection usually can.

Thermal (infrared) inspections

On flat and commercial roofs, thermal imaging can show where moisture is trapped under the surface. See thermal roof inspections.

Commercial and HOA inspections

Condition reports and maintenance recommendations for offices, retail, warehouses, multifamily and HOA communities — see commercial roof maintenance programs.

Inspections by roof type

Different roofs fail in different ways. Our guides explain what we look for on tile roofs, metal roofs and flat roofs, and our roof inspection guide covers the whole process from a homeowner’s point of view.

What happens after the inspection

1. You get the photos and a written report — in plain language, not jargon.
2. If everything is sound, that is what we tell you. Many inspections end there.
3. If something needs fixing, you get a written scope and price for the roof repair, and we explain what happens if you wait.
4. If the roof is at the end of its life, we explain why with photos and quote a roof replacement — including, on tile roofs, whether the existing tile can be re-used.

How to spot a trustworthy roof inspector in Arizona

• Check the license. Roofing work in Arizona requires an R-42 (residential), C-42 (commercial) or CR-42 (dual) roofing license. Look any contractor up for free at roc.az.gov.
• Ask for photos. If an inspector cannot show you the damage, be cautious.
• Be wary of door-knockers after storms. Arizona law (A.R.S. § 32-1158.02) gives you the right to cancel a roofing contract that depends on an insurance claim, and the contractor may not negotiate the claim for you.
• Get the scope in writing. A real inspection ends with a written report, not a verbal “you need a new roof.”
