A roof inspection in Irving gives you written findings with photos instead of a verbal opinion in the driveway: shingle condition, flashing, decking as visible, ventilation, and storm evidence. Ours are free, with no obligation attached.
Book a roof inspection in Irving after any significant hail or wind event, before buying or selling a home, when a ceiling stain appears, or as routine due diligence once a roof passes its first decade under DFW sun. “Your roof is fine” is a result we deliver regularly. Every inspection is documented with photos, and any estimate that follows is free and written. If a claim is involved, we never waive deductibles, which Texas law prohibits, and we are not public adjusters.
What an inspection looks for on an Irving roof
Age is the first thing we weigh in Irving. The median home was built in 1986 and 36 percent of housing predates 1980, so most homes here are old enough to have been through several roofs, and each earlier crew left its own work behind. An inspection tells you what is original, what was repaired, and what is wearing out.
The second factor is hail. Since 2006, hail of 1 inch or larger has fallen within 8 miles of Irving on 33 days, 9 of them at golf-ball size or more, and 1-inch hail has shown up in 15 of the last 20 years. A documented inspection separates old wear from storm damage in a way an adjuster can follow, and it gives buyers and sellers a clear record of condition. We schedule inspections across Dallas County and in nearby Farmers Branch and Coppell.

Common questions about roof inspection in Irving
What does a roof inspection cost in Irving?
Nothing. Inspections are free, documented with photos, and delivered as written findings. No obligation follows.
Do I need to be home for the inspection?
For the exterior and roof, no. Attic access needs someone home. We schedule around you either way and walk you through what we found.
Can you inspect a roof before I buy a house in Irving?
Yes. A roof-specific pre-purchase inspection tells you actual remaining life and any storm history the disclosure may not capture. It is cheap leverage in a home purchase.
Do mature trees around our Irving home affect the roof?
Constantly. Canopy debris loads gutters and valleys, branches abrade shingles in every wind event, and shade-side slopes hold moisture longer. Trimming to clearance and keeping drainage clear are the two cheapest roof-life extensions in established neighborhoods.
How often does hail hit Irving?
NOAA's Storm Events Database lists 33 days since 2006 with hail one inch or larger reported within 8 miles of Irving, including 9 days with golf ball size stones or bigger. Hail that size was reported in 15 of the last 20 years. The most recent report was 1.5-inch hail on March 25, 2025.
How old are most homes in Irving?
The median home in Irving was built in 1986, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey. 36% of the city's housing units predate 1980 and 14% were built in 2010 or later. Many homes here are reaching the age when original roofs come due.
