StormCHECK™ storm damage inspection
After wind, hail or a heavy rain, StormCHECK™ documents what happened to the roof while the evidence is fresh: claim-ready photographs, the proximate cause of loss, and a report within 24 hours.
Our position is simple. We're not in the pocket of the carrier or the insured. We're an advocate for the roof system.
Forensic ROOF® inspection
A Forensic ROOF® inspection checks whether a recent installation complies with building codes and the manufacturer's specifications: installation quality, structural integrity, code compliance and material testing where needed. Owners use it when a new roof leaks. Attorneys use it when that conversation stops being polite.
Insurance claim inspections
Our insurance claim inspections determine the proximate cause of loss and use Inspection PLUS® software for nationally standardized reporting, so adjusters and underwriters get the same structure on every file.
“Cert-A-Roof was able to give me an evaluation and some recommendations very promptly and left me with a better impression than anyone else I spoke to.”
