Roof maintenance isn't a service most companies push — there's not enough margin in it. But it's the single most reliable way to get the back third of your roof's life. The roofs we maintain regularly routinely last 28 to 32 years on a 30-year shingle. The ones we get called to first when they're already leaking? 14 to 18 on the same shingle. The math is brutal.

What an annual tune-up actually catches

Cracked pipe boots before they leak. Hairline cracks in flashing caulk before water finds the opening. A loose nail that's slowly backing out. Debris piled in a valley that's about to start trapping water under shingles. Gutters that have shifted slope and are sending overflow behind the fascia. All sub-$300 fixes today. All $5,000 ceiling repairs in 18 months if you ignore them.

Why our maintenance customers don't call about leaks

Because we're already up there once a year handling the small stuff while it's still small. We're not selling you a subscription — most of our maintenance customers spend $200–$500 a year and never have a leak. If we find a real problem during an inspection, we tell you, give you a written estimate, and let you decide. No pressure, no monthly fee.

When You Actually Need This

  • Roof is 7+ years old and never been serviced
  • Trees overhang the roof and gutters fill
  • Annual storm season is here and you want peace of mind
  • Real estate inspection ahead of a sale
Our Process

How We Handle Roof Maintenance & Annual Inspection

  1. 1

    Schedule + arrive

    Spring or fall is ideal. We arrive on the booked window — confirmed by text the day before — and start with a full ground-level walkaround.

  2. 2

    Roof + attic inspection

    Up on the roof for shingle, flashing, pipe boot, ridge, and valley condition. Then into the attic for ventilation, daylight check, and stain check. Photos of everything.

  3. 3

    Clear, reseal, replace

    Valleys cleared of debris, gutters cleared if needed (you opt in), flashing resealed where caulk has cracked, any failing pipe boots swapped at a flat per-piece rate.

  4. 4

    Photo report + forecast

    Emailed inside a week: dated photos of every condition, recommendations for any deferred work, and our honest estimate of remaining roof life so you can plan ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions
