Know What Shape Your Roof Is Really In — Free.

Paid roof inspections in the Pensacola area typically run $75-$150 depending on roof size and access. Ours are free — including the drone imaging and the written photo report within 24 hours — for homeowners across Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Okaloosa counties.

Shingle condition and sealing, flashing at every wall and penetration, pipe boots and vents, fastener back-out, granule loss, soft decking, gutter evidence (granules and debris), and — where there's attic access — water staining and daylight through the deck. Everything notable is photographed and goes in your report.

Yes — spring or early summer is ideal, while repairs can still be scheduled on your timeline instead of in a post-storm rush. A documented pre-season inspection also protects your claim later: dated photos of a sound roof are the strongest possible answer to a carrier's 'pre-existing damage' argument.

That's exactly when it's worth it. Wind damage is often invisible from the ground — lifted shingles reseal partially, and leaks show up months later. Florida gives you 1 year from the date of loss to file a new claim, so a free documented inspection right after a storm either catches damage inside the window or gives you dated proof your roof came through clean.

Often, yes. Under Florida's roof-age rule (FS 627.7011), a carrier generally can't refuse coverage solely because a roof is under 15 years old — and for older roofs, an authorized inspection showing 5+ years of remaining useful life can head off an age-based non-renewal. Licensed roofing contractors are among those authorized to perform that assessment. The wind-mitigation form (OIR-B1-1802) is separate — that needs its own authorized signer, and we coordinate it as part of the job.
