Common problems found when conducting Edmonton Home Inspections are roof defects. Examples of problems include missing shingles, missing or improperly installed flashing, improperly installed shingles, etc. These problems are often found on older and newer Edmonton homes alike.
Poor installation of roof coverings can result in leaks and costly damage to a home. Whether you are purchasing a new home or having your roof replaced, it's important to have an experienced Edmonton Home Inspector perform a thorough inspection to ensure everything was installed correctly.

In this image, notice the bare spot with no shingle and the improper, unprofessional installation of "flashing" along the lower roof edge. This is an extremely unprofessional installation (to put it nicely). This house was built by one of the larger builders in the area but the roof was most definitely not installed by a professional.
