Roof Inspection & Maintenance Services in River Forest, IL


Your roof is out of sight, and often out of mind—until water pours in. The best way to avoid costly surprises is proactive care. We provide comprehensive roof inspections and maintenance plans in River Forest, IL. Whether you are buying a home, selling a home, or just want peace of mind after a storm, our certified inspectors provide an unbiased, detailed assessment of your roof's condition.





Drone & Thermal Inspections


We use technology to see what the naked eye cannot. Our drone roof inspections allow us to view high, steep, or dangerous roofs safely. We capture high-resolution imagery of every shingle. For commercial flat roofs, we use thermal imaging to detect moisture trapped under the membrane, identifying leaks that haven't even dripped yet.

Professional Roof Inspection




The 21-Point Inspection


Our inspection is thorough. We check:

  • Shingle Condition: Looking for granular loss, blistering, and wind creasing.
  • Flashing: Checking for rust or separation at walls and chimneys.
  • Ventilation: Ensuring ridge vents and soffits are not blocked.
  • Gutters: Checking for granules (a sign of roof aging) and secure fastening.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • Do you offer free inspections? We offer free visual inspections for homeowners. Detailed written reports for real estate transactions or insurance disputes may carry a nominal fee.
  • How often should I have my roof inspected? We recommend once a year, and always after a major hail or wind storm.
  • What is granular loss? As asphalt shingles age, they lose the protective ceramic granules. This exposes the asphalt to the sun, accelerating cracking. Excessive granules in the gutter is a sign your roof is aging.
  • Can you inspect for hail damage? Yes. Hail damage (bruising) is often invisible from the ground. We get on the roof to look for the characteristic divots that void shingle warranties.
  • Do I need an inspection to sell my house? It is highly recommended. A roof certification from a licensed roofer gives buyers confidence and can speed up the closing process.
