Walking a roof is important

Roof Inspection imageRoof inspections are an important part of the whole house inspection. That is why I try to walk every roof. Some roofs cannot be walked such as slate or too steep. The other day the slope on the rear of a house was 12/12, way too steep. The front part was walkable and good thing I did.

The shingles on the ridge were not secure. These will likely blow off someday. It should be an easy repair but important to do.
