  I had rust spots on the edges of my metal roof; it was also covered in mildew.   Shawn had the roof soft washed, and took off the rust spots.  He even went to a great deal of trouble to match the color white perfectly so that you could not see where the repairs were done.  An exceptional job. My roof looks brand new and not twelve years old. Thank you, Shawn for going above and beyond.  I really appreciate everything that you did, especially as my claim was denied by the metal roofing manufacturer.

  A RARE Hidden Gem in the roofing contractor world.  The experience was unlike anything I can remember, so much so I was compelled to express my admiration for them as contractors.  I recently employed them and was blown away by how impressive the entire experience was from first contact to finishing the project.  They are extremely responsive and I felt that they truly cared about my me and my situation.  They followed up regularly, never left the job site for other jobs and took a very caring approach to their work.  They certainly are a cut above other companies and I would certainly endorse them as people and their work.  You're going to be dealing with honest people who will do what they say.  Thanks Matthews Roofing!!

  I contacted Matthews Roofing LLC to get an estimate for a roof repair. Kevin promptly arrived and inspected the leak. He was very professional and detailed with his findings. I also appreciated that Mateo came by afterwards to make sure everything was checked. I highly recommend them for their professionalism and customer service excellence.

  I have to be honest. I don’t usually do reviews. But after Matthew and his crew left my house, I felt like I needed to. I actually said I wanted to review because it’s not my style but when I step back and look at my roof to the end of my driveway after what happened to us during the recent storm I was constantly blown away. My wife made me do a review. Here it is. House looks great and these guys honestly didn’t even bother me for your review it was my wife. She’s so happy and her mom is here too and so is Shea. So here I am giving review because apparently Matthew and his boys crushed it. Thank you so much I feel like me and my family can sleep safely at night now. Thank you.

Types Of Roof Inspections We Provide

We specialize in a wide range of roof inspections to fit your needs. Whether you need to check for leaks, assess storm damage, renew your insurance, or inspect a new home purchase, our team provides thorough inspections to guarantee your roof’s integrity. Below is a list of common types of roof inspections and their purposes.

Active Roof Leak

When you have an active roof leak, our inspection will quickly identify the source of the problem and assess the extent of the damage. We’ll provide a detailed report and an estimate for the necessary repairs to keep your roof water tight.

Buyin a Home

When buying a home, a roof inspection is a great way to ensure you’re not facing unexpected repairs in the coming months. Our thorough inspection will give you peace of mind by assessing the roof’s condition, including the flashing, tiles, and ventilation, to highlight any potential issues.

Renewing Insurance Policy

Insurance companies are known for requiring a roof inspection before renewing the policy, especially if your roof is older. We’ll conduct a comprehensive inspection and provide the certification needed to satisfy your insuranc

After a Hurricane or Severe Storm

After a hurricane or severe storm, it’s essential to inspect your roof for damage that could lead to bigger problems. Not all damage can be seen from the ground, so we’ll inspect your roof inside and out. Our post-storm inspections give you the peace of mind that your roof is performing as it should.

Our Process For Inspecting Your Roof

Our roof inspection process is thorough and customized to meet the specific needs of your roofing system, whether it’s flat or sloped. We begin by inspecting the exterior of your roof, checking for visible signs of damage, wear, and active leaks. Then, we assess the interior, including the attic, to catch any hidden issues. As part of every inspection, we alert you to any active leaks we find, but we’ll also provide feedback on the age and overall condition of your roof. For different roofing systems, like flat or tile roofs, we pay extra attention to the unique aspects of the materials. After the inspection, we provide a detailed report outlining the condition of your roof along with any recommended repairs or maintenance.

Metal Roof Inspections

When inspecting a metal roof, we focus on a few key areas that are unique to this type of roof. First, we check for rust or corrosion, which can be a common occurrence when your home is near the ocean or in humid climates like South Florida. We also inspect the seams and fasteners to ensure they’re secure, since this can be the leading cause of metal panels blowing off during high winds. As with all roofs, the flashing, vents, and walls are all important to inspect.

Tile Roof Inspections

For tile roofs, we focus on key areas that are specific to this type of roofing system. First, we check for cracked, broken, or loose tiles, since this can lead to rapid aging of the underlayment, which is the actual waterproofing material. Where possible, and if necessary, we will examine the underlayment itself to make sure seams are holding up and the overall condition is still satisfactory to Florida’s building code. Another key area is the mortar around the ridge caps, walls, and flashing. When they become loose or erode, it can lead to tiles becoming loose and sliding out of place. Finally, we inspect the flashing around skylights, vents, and other penetrations to make sure they are sealed properly, as damaged flashing can lead to significant damage to the roof.

Flat Roof Inspections

During our flat roof inspections, there are a few things we check that are specific to only flat roofs. For example, excessive ponding water, which is when water doesn’t drain properly and sits on the roof—this can lead to rapid deterioration, voided warranties, and leaks. We also inspect the seams and edges of the membrane, since flat roofs often use materials like TPO or PVC, and the seams of those materials are one of the first places water can get in. Another area we focus on is the drainage system, making sure that gutters and drains are clear and functioning, as poor drainage is a common issue with flat roofs. Finally, we check for any signs of blistering or bubbling in the roofing material, which can indicate moisture is trapped underneath.

FAQs About Certified Roof Inspections

Roof inspections can raise a lot of questions, and we’re here to help clear things up. Below, you’ll find answers to some of the most common questions we get about the process, what’s involved

How often should I get my roof inspected?

If your roof is new, you shouldn’t need an inspection for the first five years unless you’ve had a severe storm or suspect an issue. We recommend inspections at years 5, 10, and 15. After that, we suggest inspecting it every year or every other year, as it becomes more susceptible to damage with age. After hurricane season, it’s always a good idea to have a quick check to look for wind damage or punctures.

How long does a roof inspection take?

This depends on the size of the roof and how detailed of an inspection you require. If you just want a visual inspection and a virtual report, that could actually be a 30-minute inspection. But if you require documentation and a thorough inspection of the inside and on the roof, that could take up to 2 hours.

How much does a roof assessment cost?

If your roof has known damage and you’re interested in getting it repaired, then we wouldn’t charge for that type of roof assessment. But if you are interested in a detailed inspection that includes a report, the price will vary depending on the size and complexity of your roof, so we’d have to see it first before quoting you.
