Riverside, CA
Get your Riverside roof looked at properly
An inspection is the cheapest thing on this site and the one that saves the most money, because it turns a guess into a number.
Or call (951) 589-3318Describe the inspection job
Three questions, then the address. Up to three Riverside contractors who do this work.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Riverside and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a inspection job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- An estimated number of years left in the covering
- Photographs of anything they flag
- Whether the inspection includes going into the attic
- A written report, not a verbal summary
- Whether the fee comes off the job if you proceed
Twice a year is the standard advice, and almost nobody does it. Once after the worst weather of the year is a reasonable compromise.
A thorough look covers the covering, the flashings, the penetrations, the gutters, the ventilation and the attic side of the deck. If nobody went into the attic, half the inspection did not happen.
Either way, ask for photographs. A report with pictures of your actual roof is worth ten times one with a tick-box condition rating.
Locally
Then, less dramatically: sudden dry winds that test every lifted edge on the roof. These winds are not constant, which is the problem. A roof gets nine quiet months and then one night at fifty miles an hour, and whatever was marginal goes.
About inspection here
What happens to my information?
Your details are passed to up to three local roofing contractors so they can quote. That is the only use. You can ask us to delete them at any time, and there is a do-not-sell page for exactly that.
How quickly will someone call?
Most requests are picked up the same day, often within an hour. Emergencies are prioritised. If you have not heard anything by the next morning, check voicemail — contractors usually call from a mobile.
Can I just put a new roof over the old one?
Often you legally can, and it is usually a poor idea. Overlaying hides the condition of the decking, adds weight, shortens the life of the new shingles by trapping heat, and doubles the cost of the next tear-off.
Is this really free?
Yes. You pay nothing, now or later. Roofing contractors pay us for the introduction, which is why the service costs you nothing and why we are upfront that it is how we make money.
Get it priced
No cost, no obligation, and never more than three contractors.
