Roof Inspections In Quincy, MA
A documented answer, not a guess.
A Powersol roof inspection is a photo-documented look at your roof from above and your attic from below, and it ends in a written verdict: what needs attention now, what can wait, and what is fine. Owner-run and fully insured, based at 100 Hancock St in Quincy. Serving Quincy and the South Shore
When it matters
When Is a Roof Inspection Actually Worth It?
At four moments, when a documented answer changes a decision. You do not need one every year.
Buying or selling
The roof is the most expensive part of a house that a general home inspection skims over. A roofer’s photo report tells a buyer what they are walking into and gives a seller proof there is nothing to hide.
After a storm
Wind and hail damage is often invisible from the ground. A dated, photographed inspection right after a nor’easter is the evidence a storm damage insurance claim is built on.
Past year fifteen
An asphalt roof does not fail all at once. A check each year from year fifteen on catches small failures while they are still repairs, not replacements.
Before winter
If you had ice dams last winter, the causes are still up there. A fall inspection finds the ventilation and flashing problems before the snow does.
Top to bottom
What Does a Powersol Roof Inspection Cover?
The roof from above and the attic from below. Half of what kills a Massachusetts roof shows only from the inside, so a ground-level glance is not an inspection.
What you walk away with
What Do I Get After the Inspection?
Every finding is photographed and explained in plain English. If the roof is sound, the report says so, and that answer is worth as much as any repair.
Buying or selling on the South Shore?
A roof question can stall a closing faster than almost anything else in a home sale. A dated, photo-documented inspection from a licensed local roofer answers it before it gets asked, whether you are the buyer negotiating or the seller removing doubt. We schedule around showings and closings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a roof inspection include?
We inspect the roof surface, flashing, penetrations, gutters, and ridge from above, and the sheathing, ventilation, and insulation picture from inside the attic. Everything is photographed, and you get a written summary of what needs attention now, what can wait, and what is fine.
When should I get my roof inspected?
Before buying or selling a home, after a major storm, when the roof passes its fifteenth year, or before winter if you have had ice dams. Any one of those is a good reason; two together make it overdue.
Do I get a report I can share with my realtor or insurance company?
Yes. The photo-documented report is yours to keep and share. Buyers use it in negotiations, sellers use it to remove doubt, and it serves as dated evidence if storm damage later becomes an insurance claim.
Will you try to sell me a new roof after the inspection?
No. The report says what the photos support. If the roof is sound, the report says so. If a repair solves it, we say that, even when a replacement would pay us more. The inspection is only valuable if the verdict is honest.
