Get Your Roofing in OKC Thoroughly Inspected by Terrell's

Having a high-quality roof is so important, and if you do have problems with your roof, the longer these issues go undetected the worse the problem will become. The worse a problem becomes, the more expensive it is to fix! That's why it is extremely important to have your roofing in OKC inspected by a reliable and expert business like Terrell's Siding and Windows. Our qualified roofing inspection service can save you money by inspecting the roof for the need for minor repairs or larger work that cannot be seen from ground level.

There are many areas of a roof that can allow rain water to enter the home and do serious damage to the walls and ceilings. We check all aspects of your roof to make sure it is in the best possible condition! We will check the area around the roof vents to make certain that the roof is sealed and no water can enter there. We also check to make sure that the vents are properly installed and are not blocked by any foreign matter. In addition, we check for the proper pipe flashing and chimney aprons, both of which are designed to seal against leaks.

We look for damage to the underlayment where water may have come through the roofing material and is rotting the wood beneath, and we also check for the drip rails at the edge of the roof which hang over the gutters by a half inch to direct the flow of water away from the roof and into the gutters.

Of course, it goes without saying that we will also look for shingles that are indicate the roof may need to be replaced. This is part of a roof inspection. If it is possible, we go in to the attic and look for interior water damage that indicates a leak, locate the entry point of the water, and seal it off. If where the roof line joins the walls is leaking, it may be because of faulty roofing or sealing.

After our inspection of your roofing in OKC, we provide a written report so that you know exactly what we found. We will also include our recommendations for repairs, if any are required.

If your roof is getting old and it isn't in the shape it used to be in, give us a call! We are happy to come check it out. A little preventative maintenance now can pay off big in the long run.
