At AO1 Roofing Company, we check roofs for families in Baytown, TX. We look at every part of the roof to find small issues. We report on what we find and give simple tips. A quick check today stops leaks tomorrow.
What is a Roof Inspection?
A roof inspection is a close look at your roof. A skilled roofer walks on the roof or uses a drone. We look at shingles, vents, flashing, and gutters. We look inside your attic for signs of water. You get a full report in simple terms with clear photos.
Why You Need a Roof Inspection
Over time, roofs wear from sun, wind, and rain. Missing shingles or worn flashing can let water in. A small leak can mean mold in your attic. Families in Highlands and Cloverleaf have saved on repair bills by fixing small spots early. A yearly check can save money and worry.
How Often to Get an Inspection
We recommend a check at least once a year. After a big storm or hail event, give us a call. Home owners in Bay Forest, Shoreacres, and Cedar Bayou often call us each spring. It takes a few minutes. It helps you catch problems early.
Signs Your Roof Needs a Check
Keep an eye on your yard after a storm. If you see shingles on the ground, you need a check. Look for small black marks or dents on shingles from hail. Check your gutters for sand-like granules. These bits come off old or damaged shingles. Inside, watch for water stains on your ceiling and walls.
What Our Inspection Covers
- Shingles: cracked, curled, or missing
- Gutters: clogged or loose
- Flashing: bent or broken
- Attic: water spots, mold, or rot
- Vents and chimney: rust or gaps

Example from Cloverleaf Neighborhood
A home in Cloverleaf had dark spots on the ceiling after a rain. We came out and found a loose flashing near the chimney. We secured the metal and sealed the gap. That little fix stopped the drip in its tracks. The family was happy they acted fast.
