We performed a full roof inspection on this two-story home in Richlands, called in by a real estate agent ahead of the due diligence deadline. The entire architectural shingle system was examined — hips, ridges, and valleys — along with vertical staining patterns, the condition of the white metal gutter system, plumbing vent flashings, and the roof-to-wall transitions near the vinyl siding. Specific shingle tabs showing wear were documented individually. The result: a clear, honest picture of the roof's current condition and remaining service life, delivered in time to inform the deal — exactly what a due diligence inspection is supposed to do.
