What a free inspection looks like on West Ashley roofs.
A free inspection in West Ashley is most useful on a 1960s ranch in Ashley Hall, South Windermere or West Ashley Plantation that hasn't been looked at since its 1990s re-roof. We walk the roof, photograph every slope, check the decking at the eaves under the oaks, and hand you a written grade the same day.
Buying in Shadowmoss, Church Creek or Carolina Bay? The report tells you whether the 1980s or 2000s roof has years left or belongs in the contract negotiation, and it flags the low-slope additions and carport tie-ins that West Ashley ranches collect over sixty years.
West Ashley roofs collect additions, and the inspection is built around them. A South Windermere or Ashley Hall ranch may carry a carport, a sunroom and a screened porch added across three decades at three different pitches, and each tie-in was flashed by whoever was cheapest that year. We photograph every joint where an addition meets the main roof and grade each one, because that is where the next leak is.
Sellers in West Ashley book the inspection before listing. A buyer's home inspector will flag a Shadowmoss or Parkshore roof as a question from the ladder; our report answers it with slope-by-slope photos, a remaining-life estimate and the replacement price on the published ladder, which keeps the contract from stalling over a roof that has years left. If it does not have years left, you learn that before the buyer does.
