How often should I get my roof inspected in South Florida?

We recommend an annual inspection, plus an extra check after any named storm or hurricane. South Florida's heat, UV exposure, and hurricane season put extreme stress on roofing materials. Annual inspections catch small problems like cracked tiles, worn flashing, or sealant failure before they turn into leaks or structural damage.

What does a roof inspection include?

Our inspectors examine the entire roofing system: shingles or tiles, flashing, gutters, fascia, soffit, ventilation, and the roof deck structure. We also check the attic for moisture, mold, and insulation condition. You receive a same-day photo-documented report covering every finding, along with a condition rating and recommended next steps.

Do you provide inspection reports for insurance claims?

Yes. Our reports are formatted specifically for insurance submissions. We document all damage with timestamped, high-resolution photos and include a written assessment of cause, extent, and estimated remaining roof life. Insurance carriers in Florida routinely accept our documentation without requesting additional inspections.

What is a drone roof inspection and when is it needed?

Drone inspection uses a commercial-grade aerial camera to photograph and video the entire roof surface from above. It is ideal for steep-slope roofs, tile roofs where walking could cause breakage, multi-story buildings, and situations where safety access is limited. The drone captures detail invisible from ground level, including cracked tiles, lifted shingles, and ponding water.

How much does a roof inspection cost in Hialeah or Key Biscayne?

We offer a free initial roof assessment at no cost. For detailed pre-purchase or insurance inspections that include full documentation and a written report, pricing depends on roof size and complexity. Call us at (305) 845-5172 for an exact quote — most residential inspections are very affordable and completed the same day you call.

About Our Company

We Catch What Others Miss

Roof Inspection Experts started with a simple idea: homeowners in South Florida deserve straight answers about their roof before they spend a dime. As Florida Certified Roofing Contractors and active members of the Florida Roofing and Sheet Metal Contractors Association, we have spent over 15 years inspecting barrel tile, flat roofs, shingle systems, and everything in between across Hialeah, Key Biscayne, and Miami Springs.

Every inspector on our team carries liability insurance and uses commercial-grade drones and thermal cameras to spot moisture, cracks, and flashing failures that are invisible from the ground. Whether you are buying a home, filing an insurance claim after a storm, or just staying on top of annual maintenance, we hand you a clear report with photos and honest recommendations -- not a sales pitch for repairs you do not need.

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

"I was about to close on a house in Hialeah Gardens and my realtor said get the roof checked first. They came out that same afternoon. The inspector found water damage under the tiles that the seller never mentioned -- showed me the photos right there on his phone. I backed out of that deal and honestly it saved me thousands. So grateful I called these guys."

Maria L.

Hialeah, FL

"After Milton came through we had water stains on the ceiling and I was panicking. They got a drone up over our tile roof the next morning because our roof is too steep to walk safely. I watched the live feed from the driveway -- pretty impressive honestly. Had the full report with photos emailed to me by 5pm and my insurance adjuster approved the claim using their documentation. No back and forth, no second opinion needed."

Roberto D.

Key Biscayne, FL

"We have been using them for our yearly checkup for three years now. Last time they found a small crack in the flashing around our AC unit that we never would have noticed. Fixed it for almost nothing. Other companies would have tried to sell us a whole new roof. These guys just tell you what is actually going on and let you decide. That is why we keep calling them back."

Common Questions

Roof Inspection FAQ

At minimum, once a year. We also tell our customers to call us after any named storm -- even if the roof looks fine from the ground. Between the UV, the salt air, and hurricane season, South Florida eats roofing materials for breakfast. A quick annual check catches cracked tiles or worn sealant before a summer downpour turns it into an interior leak.

We go through everything: tiles or shingles, flashing, gutters, fascia, soffit, vents, and the decking underneath. We also get into the attic to check for moisture, mold, and insulation -- especially important down here where humidity sits at 80% half the year. You get a photo report emailed the same day with a plain-English condition rating and what we would do next if it were our house.

Absolutely -- it is one of the main reasons people call us. We format every report for Florida insurance carriers: timestamped high-res photos, written damage assessment, cause of loss, and estimated remaining roof life. Most adjusters in Miami-Dade and Broward accept our documentation without sending their own inspector out again, which speeds up your claim.

We fly a commercial-grade drone over your roof and capture high-resolution photos and video from every angle. It is the best option for barrel tile roofs -- stepping on those tiles can crack them -- and for two-story or three-story buildings where ladder access is tricky. The drone picks up cracked tiles, lifted shingles, and standing water that you would never see from the ground. A lot of our Key Biscayne customers with Spanish tile roofs request it specifically.

Our basic roof assessment is free -- we come out, look things over, and tell you where you stand. For a full written report with photos (the kind you need for insurance or a home purchase), pricing depends on roof size and type. Give us a call at (305) 845-5172 and we will give you an exact number on the phone. Most residential inspections in Hialeah and Key Biscayne are done the same day.
