This is the Morrow 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 quoteClass 4 shingle still pays for itself on the fringe because carriers price by county, not by how often your particular street gets hit. Wind is the co-equal peril here; South Texas squall lines lift shingles as often as hail bruises them. 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 Morrow: 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.
Georgia doesn't issue a roofing-specific license — most roofing falls under the state's Residential-Basic or General Contractor license once a job crosses the state's licensing threshold. We check that license, insurance, and standing with the state board before a roofer ever sees a lead.
How it works
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.
For surface condition, yes, and it's safer on steep or tile roofs. It can't check nail pull-through or feel for soft decking, so it's a complement to a physical inspection, not a replacement, when the roof is questionable.

Morrow is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
