The ceiling stain in the upstairs bedroom is the size of a dinner plate now. It wasn't there last fall, and it's getting worse after every rain. TruRoof inspects roofs and gives free written estimates in Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and Southeast Indiana.
Why You Can Trust Us
If your roof is more than 15 years old, the shingles may be curling or losing granules. You might see dark streaks on the roof or find pieces of shingle in the yard. Inside, a damp spot on the ceiling or a musty smell in the attic are signs of a leak. If you're buying or selling a home, a real estate inspection often requires a roof check. Even without a leak, an annual inspection can catch small problems before they become big ones.
A small leak can soak insulation, warp drywall, and lead to mold. That ceiling stain keeps growing. You avoid using that room. The longer you wait, the more expensive the repair gets. If you're selling, a bad roof inspection can hold up the sale or lower the offer. You're stuck not knowing if it's a simple fix or a full replacement.
When you call TruRoof, a crew member comes to your property at the scheduled time. They walk the entire roof, take photos of every section, and check all flashing, vents, and gutters. They also inspect the attic for water damage. You get a written estimate on the spot, with photos and a clear list of what's needed. If there's storm damage, TruRoof can document it for your insurance claim. The inspection is free, and the estimate is yours to keep.
After the inspection, you'll have a clear picture of your roof's condition. You can see the photos and understand the repairs. You'll know exactly what it will cost and when it can be done. No more worrying about a hidden leak. You can move forward with confidence, whether it's a repair, a replacement, or just peace of mind.

Roof problems we fix
How much should a roof inspection cost
You want someone to look at the roof, but you do not want to pay for a sales pitch dressed up as an inspection.
Our inspections are free and come with photos and a written report you keep, whether or not you hire us.
What does a roof inspection include
You are buying a house, or your insurer asked for an inspection, and you are not sure what a real one should cover.
Shingles, flashing, penetrations, gutters, attic ventilation and decking, documented with photos.
Why do I keep getting calls about roof inspections
After every storm your phone rings and strangers knock offering a free roof inspection. Some of it feels like a scam.
Storm chasers follow hail maps. Use a local, licensed company that will still be here in five years.
Roof leak in attic after heavy rain
You go up to the attic after a storm and see a dark wet spot on the plywood. You don't know if it is old or new. You don't know where the water is getting in.
Mark the wet area with tape. Check the roof directly above it for missing shingles, cracked flashing, or a bad pipe boot. Water travels downhill, so the entry point may be higher than the stain. Get a pro to trace it before it rots the decking.
How to choose a roofing contractor
You need a new roof. You are scared of picking a bad contractor who will cut corners, take your money, or disappear if something goes wrong. You do not know what questions to ask.
Ask for a local address and a written estimate. Check that they have insurance and a license. Read reviews and ask for references. A good contractor will walk you through the job, not just hand you a number. Get at least three quotes before you decide.
Shingles curling and granule loss
Your shingles are curling at the edges. You find dark granules in the gutters every time you clean them. The roof looks old but you don't know if it is failing.
Curling and granule loss mean the shingles are past the middle of their life. A few bad shingles can be replaced. If it is widespread, start budgeting for a tear-off. Get an inspection with photos so you can see the truth.
