Or call (323) 328-8590Describe the inspection job
Three questions, then the address. Up to three Cudahy contractors who do this work.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Cudahy and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a inspection job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- Whether the fee comes off the job if you proceed
- A written report, not a verbal summary
- Photographs of anything they flag
- Whether the inspection includes going into the attic
- An estimated number of years left in the covering
A thorough look covers the covering, the flashings, the penetrations, the gutters, the ventilation and the attic side of the deck. If nobody went into the attic, half the inspection did not happen.
Twice a year is the standard advice, and almost nobody does it. Once after the worst weather of the year is a reasonable compromise.
Either way, ask for photographs. A report with pictures of your actual roof is worth ten times one with a tick-box condition rating.
Locally
Close behind that: shaded slopes that never really dry out. Damp that arrives every morning and leaves by lunchtime is worse for a roof than rain, because nothing ever fully dries between one and the next.
About inspection here
Is this really free?
Yes. You pay nothing, now or later. Roofing contractors pay us for the introduction, which is why the service costs you nothing and why we are upfront that it is how we make money.
How many contractors will contact me?
No more than three. We picked that number because two quotes is not enough to spot an outlier and five is an ordeal.
Is moss on the roof a problem?
It matters more than it looks. The damage is not the moss, it is the permanent damp underneath it. Kill it and brush it off gently; never pressure wash asphalt.
I rent. Can I use this?
Only the owner can approve roofing work. If you are renting, the fastest route is to send this to your landlord or property manager rather than gathering quotes nobody can act on.
