This is the Lealman page for roof inspection. The short version: you want an honest read on the roof's condition before buying, selling, insuring, or filing a claim, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteMetal and tile score best on wind mitigation for a reason, but a properly nailed architectural shingle roof with a sealed deck closes most of the gap at a fraction of the cost. Roof-to-wall attachment matters more here than anywhere; clips or straps added during a tear-off can move a home a full category on its wind mitigation report. Lower pitches on mid-century homes rule out some products and make ice-and-water shield in the valleys non-negotiable.
What it costs in Lealman: many roofers inspect free in hopes of a job; a paid independent inspection removes that incentive and is worth it for real estate transactions or insurance disputes.

How it works
Every slope photographed, flashing and penetrations checked, attic viewed from below where accessible, and a written report with remaining-life estimate. A walk-around from the driveway is not an inspection.
In Florida, for any roof over 15 years old, effectively yes — carriers want a report showing five or more years of remaining life. In Texas it's less formal but increasingly common on older roofs.
Every roofer we match you with holds an active Florida Certified or Registered Roofing Contractor license (CCC or RC number) verifiable on the DBPR license portal. Lealman is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
