Why Roof Inspections Matter
Your roof may look fine from the ground, but hidden damage can develop long before you see visible signs like water stains or missing shingles. Regular roof inspections are critical for identifying early signs of wear, weather-related damage, or poor installation—issues that can lead to costly repairs or structural problems if left unchecked.
A professional inspection provides more than just peace of mind. It can:
- Extend the lifespan of your roofing system
- Help validate warranty coverage
- Strengthen your position in real estate transactions
- Support faster, more accurate insurance claims
- Prevent small issues from becoming expensive emergencies
In San Diego’s coastal climate—where sun exposure, wind, and salt air can take a toll on roofing materials—routine inspections are especially important. Whether your roof is ten years old or brand new, a scheduled inspection helps protect one of your biggest investments: your home.

What We Check During Your Inspection
At Gen819 Roofing & Solar, our inspections go beyond surface-level checks. We follow a detailed process to assess the condition and performance of your entire roofing system. Every inspection includes a thorough review of:
- Roofing materials (shingles, tiles, or membranes) for wear, cracks, or displacement
- Flashings around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys for signs of deterioration
- Roof decking and structural components for sagging, rot, or water intrusion
- Attic ventilation and insulation performance (when accessible)
- Gutters, drainage paths, and signs of water pooling or overflow
- Signs of mold, mildew, or pest activity that may indicate hidden moisture issues
We also offer drone inspections and thermal imaging for hard-to-reach areas or flat roofs. These advanced tools help identify leaks, temperature anomalies, and hidden damage without invasive procedures—giving you a clearer picture of your roof’s health.
Our Roof Inspection Process
We believe that clarity and thoroughness are key to a successful roof inspection. That’s why we follow a structured, step-by-step process designed to give you accurate insights and actionable next steps.
- Initial Consultation
We start with a short conversation to understand your concerns, property type, and inspection goals. - On-Site Assessment
A licensed roofing expert conducts a visual inspection of your roof, exterior components, and attic (if accessible). - Advanced Imaging (Optional)
When needed, we use drone technology and thermal imaging to detect moisture or structural issues not visible to the eye. - Photo Documentation
We take high-resolution photos of problem areas and key components for your records and peace of mind. - Inspection Report & Recommendations
You’ll receive a written report outlining our findings, estimated roof condition, and suggested next steps—whether it’s routine maintenance or immediate repair. - Clear, No-Pressure Quote
If repairs are needed, we provide a transparent quote with options tailored to your budget and timeline.
Our process is designed to keep you informed every step of the way—with no surprises, no pressure, and no upselling.
Who Should Get a Roof Inspection?
A professional roof inspection isn’t just for emergency situations. It’s a smart step for a variety of homeowners and property professionals:
- Homeowners noticing leaks, stains, or drafts
If you see signs of water damage or feel airflow where it shouldn’t be, an inspection can pinpoint the source. - Homebuyers and sellers
Real estate transactions often depend on accurate roof condition reports. We offer pre-listing and pre-purchase inspections that help avoid surprises during escrow. - Annual maintenance planners
If your roof is over 10 years old, annual inspections can help catch wear and tear early—before it turns into costly repairs. - After severe weather
San Diego storms, wind events, or wildfires can damage roofing systems in subtle but serious ways. Post-storm inspections are vital for documenting insurance claims. - Owners of solar-integrated roofs
We specialize in inspecting roofing systems that include solar panels, ensuring all components are working safely together.
If you’re unsure whether your roof needs attention, a quick, non-invasive inspection can give you the clarity you need to make informed decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a roof inspection take?
Most residential roof inspections take between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. We take the time to do it right, without disrupting your day.
Do you inspect inside the attic?
Yes, when accessible. Attic inspections allow us to check for hidden leaks, poor ventilation, or insulation issues that affect roof performance.
Can you inspect roofs with solar panels?
Absolutely. We specialize in solar-integrated roofing systems and know how to inspect around solar components without risk of damage.
Do you use drones or special equipment?
Yes, we offer drone imaging and infrared thermal scans for a more detailed view, especially for flat or multi-story roofs where visibility is limited.
How often should I get my roof inspected in San Diego?
We recommend a professional inspection at least once every two years—or annually if your roof is over 10 years old or located near the coast where salt and sun cause faster wear.
