Flat and low-slope roof leaks
Ponding, seams and parapet flashing
A proper inspection covers the covering, every penetration, all flashing runs, the roof space from inside, and the ventilation balance — then tells you what is wrong, what will be wrong within a couple of years, and what can wait. It is worth doing annually in storm-prone areas and before buying a property. A survey that only looks from the ground, or only from a drone, misses the attic entirely, which is where the most useful evidence usually is.
Flemington sits close enough to the water that salt air is part of the roofing equation, and it is the part most people miss. Salt accelerates corrosion on every metal component up there — flashing, fasteners, drip edge, vent collars — so the parts of a roof that are supposed to outlast the shingles often do not. Add hurricane exposure, where Liberty County takes both the wind and the horizontal rain that comes with it, and the older housing stock near the water with its steeper pitches, slate and tile sections and complex roof geometry, and the result is a market where leaks cluster at the junctions rather than in the open field of the roof.
Flemington has a population of about 825, and the housing stock here sets the pattern for what fails first on a roof.
It is a sales visit. That is not automatically bad, but the incentive is to find work, and a free inspection rarely includes attic access or a written report. A charged inspection you can hand to someone else is a different product.
Annually in a hail or storm-prone area, otherwise every two to three years, and always after a significant storm. The damage that causes leaks is usually invisible from the ground, which is exactly why it goes unnoticed.
