1. Overall Condition: Our experts thoroughly examine every aspect of your roof including shingles/tiles/slates (depending on the type), flashing around chimneys or vents, gutters/downspouts system functionality.

2. Repairs Required: If we find any areas that require repairs or maintenance work like cracked tiles or missing shingles, we will provide you with an estimate for these repairs.

3. Remaining Lifespan: In case no immediate repairs are necessary after our inspection; we will estimate how many more years you can expect from your current roof.

4. Certification Option: If all required repairs are completed satisfactorily during our visit, we offer a two-year or five-year certification depending on what suits you best.

It's important to note that there are certain limitations when it comes to certifications offered by Infinite Energy. We do not certify low slope roofs or flat application roofs due to their unique characteristics which make them unsuitable for certification purposes.

During our inspection process, several factors come into consideration. For example, wood shakes may require more repairs if they are older than 10 years. On the other hand, tile roofs can last up to 50 years as long as no one walks on them excessively. The quality of composition shingles also plays a role in determining their lifespan which can range from 20 to 40 years.

The steepness of your roof, known as its pitch, is another factor that affects roofing costs and maintenance requirements. Roofs with extreme pitches often come with additional charges due to the complexity involved in working on them.

In some regions or cities, there may be specific ordinances regarding the number of layers allowed on a roof before a complete tear-off becomes necessary. It's not uncommon to find composition shingles placed directly over wood shakes in California for instance.

It's worth mentioning that when it comes time to sell your home, providing potential buyers with a roof certification can offer peace of mind and enhance their confidence in your property. Many sellers choose to include this certification as part of the sales process since it assures buyers that the roof has been thoroughly inspected by professionals like Infinite Energy.

However, please note that we cannot honor claims related to natural disasters or severe weather conditions such as high winds unless specifically covered by homeowner's insurance policies or flood insurance policies. Additionally, any damages caused by foot traffic, improperly installed skylights/solar panels or any other alterations made to the roof after certification will not be covered either.

At Infinite Energy, our goal is not only ensuring that your roof remains water-tight but also extending its life span through regular inspections and proper maintenance practices. We understand how important it is for homeowners like you to have peace of mind knowing that their roofs are well taken care of.
