Roof Inspections

Roof Inspection Services in New Orleans

Big EZ Renovations provides certified roof inspections for homeowners, buyers, sellers, and commercial property owners across Greater New Orleans. A professional roof inspection identifies damage, wear, and potential problems before they become expensive repairs. We inspect after storms, before real estate transactions, for insurance documentation, and as part of annual maintenance.

Call 504-294-8616 or schedule a roof inspection.

When You Need a Roof Inspection

  • After a storm: Hail, high winds, and heavy rain can cause damage that is not visible from the ground. We document damage for insurance claims.
  • Before buying a home: A roof inspection reveals the remaining lifespan, existing damage, and potential repair costs that affect your purchase decision and negotiating position.
  • Before selling a home: Identifying and addressing roof issues before listing prevents deal-killing surprises during buyer inspections.
  • Annual maintenance: Annual inspections catch small problems (cracked flashing, lifted shingles, clogged drainage) before they cause leaks and structural damage.
  • Insurance renewal: Some insurers require a roof inspection before renewing or issuing a policy, especially for roofs over 15 years old.

What We Inspect

  • Shingle, tile, or membrane condition (wear, cracks, missing pieces)
  • Flashing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and wall junctions
  • Gutters, downspouts, and drainage systems
  • Soffit and fascia condition
  • Attic ventilation and insulation
  • Signs of water intrusion, mold, or wood rot
  • Structural integrity of decking and framing
  • Previous repair quality

Inspection Report

After every inspection, you receive a detailed written report with photographs documenting the current condition of your roof, identified issues, recommended repairs, estimated remaining lifespan, and priority ratings for any needed work. This report is formatted for insurance claim submissions when storm damage is involved.
