Intake and history

Leak timing, weather conditions, and repair history indicate how water enters the roof system. We note when leaks appear, storm direction, and prior repairs, especially for first time inspections.

Interior moisture inspection

Interior moisture patterns show how water travels after entering the structure. We check ceilings, walls, and attic areas for staining, mold, wet insulation, and damp decking to map movement.

Exterior roof inspection

Exterior components often reveal the physical source of water entry. We inspect shingles, tiles, flashing, valleys, ridge, vents, skylight curbs, chimney flashing, gutters, downspouts, roof penetrations, step flashing, counterflashing, pipe boots, soffit, and fascia tie ins.

We also evaluate drainage and maintenance issues that lead to recurring leaks. The inspection identifies defects that lead to water damage.

Targeted testing and confirmation

Controlled testing verifies the exact leak entry point. Water testing and infrared technology confirm suspected locations before repairs proceed.

Documentation and repair plan

Inspection findings define repair scope, cost considerations, and next steps for roof repair, flashing replacement, or long-term maintenance services. Photos and notes document conditions so decisions rely on verified evidence.

When damage is confirmed, Aces Roofing can proceed based on documented findings.
