Roof Inspection
Roof Inspection in Tampa, FL
Buying, insuring, or just staying ahead of trouble — a thorough roof inspection tells you exactly what shape your roof is in, with the photos to prove it.
In Florida, a roof inspection isn't just for when something's wrong. Insurers increasingly require one to write or renew a policy, buyers need one before closing, and every homeowner benefits from catching a small problem before it becomes a soaked ceiling. Storm Authority provides straight-answer roof inspections across Tampa Bay, complete with a photo report you can actually use.
Our standard inspection covers the whole roof system: shingle or tile condition, flashing at walls, chimneys and penetrations, pipe boots and vents, valleys, the roof edge and drip edge, and visible signs of leaks or prior repairs. Where it's useful we check the attic for moisture, staining, and daylight. You get a clear report with photos and a plain-English summary of what's fine, what to watch, and what needs attention — not a sales pitch.
We also perform wind-mitigation inspections, which are specific to Florida. These document features like your roof-deck attachment, roof-to-wall connections, and roofing material — the things insurers use to calculate hurricane discounts. A wind-mitigation inspection frequently pays for itself several times over in reduced premiums, and many homeowners don't realize they qualify.
For real-estate transactions and insurance claims, we provide the documentation those processes require. And if the inspection turns up storm damage, we can walk you through the claim — filing a claim is a decision you make, and we'll give you the honest picture of whether the damage warrants it.

FAQs
Common questions about roof inspection in Tampa
How much does a roof inspection cost in Tampa?
Storm Authority offers free general roof inspections. Specialized reports — like a wind-mitigation inspection for your insurer — carry a modest fee, and a wind-mitigation inspection often pays for itself many times over in premium savings.
What is a wind-mitigation inspection?
It is a Florida-specific inspection that documents how well your roof and home are built to resist hurricane winds — things like roof-deck attachment and roof-to-wall connections. Insurers use it to apply wind-mitigation discounts, which can significantly lower your premium.
How often should I have my roof inspected?
We recommend a roof inspection once a year and after any major storm. Annual inspections catch small issues — a lifted shingle, a cracked boot — while they are still cheap to fix.
