Roof Inspection
Stay on top of your roof, without having to climb a ladder.
Your roof is designed to protect your home from all that Alberta weather can throw at it. Through scorching summers and sub-arctic winters, your roof keeps your family safe and comfortable. That’s why it’s important to stay on top of routine maintenance. And that starts with a professional roof assessment by the roofing experts at Rümi! Our roof inspectors will assess your roof for leaks, and general wear and tear. We’ll identify areas that need repair or maintenance. If your roof is at the end of its lifecycle or there is extensive damage, we’ll help you understand the timeline for replacing your roof. Regular roof inspections will keep you in the loop about one of your most important assets as a homeowner — and help prevent it from becoming a liability in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do roofing experts look for during a roof inspection?
Our roof inspector will look for inconsistencies and aging on and around your roof. The shingles, as well as the surrounding eavestroughs, fascias and soffits, are all parts of your roof system. We check your roof for: If there is a particularly worrisome area of your roof, let us know! We’ll be sure to include it in our inspection.
Can a roof inspection help me prolong the life of my roof?
Regular roof inspection, along with regular repairs and maintenance, can extend your roof’s lifespan by up to 15 years. A roof replacement is one of the most expensive home repairs you will face as a homeowner. That means it should be a priority for maintenance and care. A 15-year extension could save you thousands of dollars. It’s worth the maintenance work to prolong its life — and avoid leaks!
When should I start getting roof inspections?
Your roof should be inspected at least twice a year, in the spring and the fall. These seasons mark weather changes, giving a professional the chance to spot issues before extreme weather hits. Speaking of extreme weather, your roof should be inspected after major incidents. As your neighbour here in Alberta, we recommend a visual inspection after every hailstorm.
What is the best time of the year to get a roof inspection?
Your roof should be inspected at least twice a year and after extreme weather incidents. If you opt for just one professional roof inspection in the year, the best time is in the fall. This will give you time for any necessary repairs before winter.
What types of roofs will you inspect?
Our roofers work with all major roof materials, including:
How long should a roof last?
The average lifespan of a roof is 25–50 years. You can maximize the life of your roof by conducting visual and professional inspections regularly. Routine maintenance will prevent small issues from turning into large repairs. If you need a new roof, the pros at Rümi can install a quality roof, made to withstand Alberta weather.
Can Rümi help me with roof repairs or a roof replacement?
Yes! Our roof inspectors are roofers themselves, so we’re ready to help with anything discovered during the inspection. If we find that repairs are needed, we’ll identify them during your inspection and give you a free quote. If your roof is at the end of its life and in need of a full replacement, we’ll help you understand the scope of the project, cost and next steps. In some cases, we can provide a temporary solution until the new roof installation work is ready to begin.
What can I do to prepare for my roof inspection appointment?
Our roof inspector will arrive on time with all the equipment required to fully assess your roof. Make sure there is a clear area around your home's perimeter so we can safely access your roof. If possible, leave space in your driveway for our vehicles.
