This is the Windcrest 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 quoteOlder homes have older electrical and plumbing penetrations through the roof; replacing the boots and flashings on all of them is cheap during a re-roof and expensive later. Lower pitches on mid-century homes rule out some products and make ice-and-water shield in the valleys non-negotiable. This is the heart of the I-35 hail corridor, where golf-ball hail arrives most springs and bruises roofs that were fine the year before.
On cost: 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
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.
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.
