Denver Roofing Inspection
Professional Roof Inspections for Denver Homes & Businesses
When it comes to protecting your biggest investment — your home — there’s nothing more important than knowing the exact condition of your roof. At Ernie’s Gutter, we don’t guess or gloss over problems. We inspect them with decades of real-world experience, veteran know-how, and old-school thoroughness paired with modern tools and reporting.
Since 1978, we’ve climbed more roofs across Denver than most roof inspectors see in a lifetime. We know what to look for, what it means, and how to fix it the right way — no shortcuts, no surprises. If this is your first time hearing this: a roof inspection isn’t just about spotting a few missing shingles. It’s about evaluating structural integrity, weather-related wear, drainage problems, potential leak sources, and how your gutters and roof work together to protect your home from costly water damage.
Why a Professional Roofing Inspection Matters in Denver
Denver’s climate is beautiful — until it isn’t. Big temperature swings, heavy snow, hailstorms, and sudden wind events can take a toll on roofing systems. What looks fine from the ground can hide serious issues that turn into expensive damage later.
Here’s what a professional Denver roofing inspection gives you:
• Early problem detection – We catch issues before they turn into leaks, rot, or structural damage.
• Safety & compliance – We assess code compliance and safe roofing conditions.
• Insurance readiness – Our reports help with claims after hail, wind, or storm events.
• Lifecycle planning – Know how many years your roof has left and when you should budget for replacement.
• Peace of mind – There’s no worrying about “what if” when the inspection is done right.
A roof that’s not inspected regularly is like driving without ever checking the brakes — it might be fine today, but you’re rolling the dice.
What Our Roofing Inspection Includes
When Ernie’s Gutter inspects your Denver roof, we cover every critical point:
Thorough Visual & Physical Assessment
We look at:
-
Shingle wear and granule loss
-
Curling, buckling, or cracked roofing materials
-
Flashing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys
-
Signs of water intrusion inside the attic or under decking
-
Roof decking sag or uneven areas
Gutters, Drains & Water Flow Evaluation
Your roof and gutters work as a team. Improper drainage can back up water under shingles, rot fascia, and wreck soffits. We evaluate:
-
Gutter attachment quality
-
Downspout performance
-
Debris buildup or improper slope
-
Water pooling near foundation
Attic, Ventilation & Insulation Check
A roof inspection isn’t just on top. Heat and moisture trapped in the attic can destroy sheathing, insulation, and shorten your roof’s life.
Detailed Report With Photos & Recommendations
After the inspection, you get:
-
A professional evaluation report
-
Photos of key findings
-
Clear recommendations for repairs, maintenance, or replacement
-
Honest answers to your questions
We tell it like it is — no sugar-coating, no upsell pressure.
When You Should Schedule a Roof Inspection
You don’t have to wait for a leak to call us. Schedule an inspection when:
-
You buy or sell a home
-
Denver has a major storm (hail, high winds, heavy snow)
-
Your roof is older than 10 years
-
You see signs of roof wear from the ground
-
You’re planning repairs, maintenance, or replacement
Even a solid roof benefits from a check-up every 1–3 years in our climate. Think of it like a professional tune-up that keeps small issues from becoming major headaches.
Who We Are — Denver’s Roofing & Gutter Pros
Ernie’s Gutter is a third-generation, family-owned business serving Denver and the Metro since 1978. We started in gutters and expanded into full roofing inspections and services because we saw how often roof issues are tied to drainage and water management. We still do gutters, we still do siding — but our roofing knowledge runs deep, and we treat every home like it’s our own.
What sets us apart:
-
40+ years of service in Denver’s unique weather
-
Honest, straightforward reporting — spoken in plain English
-
Licensed, experienced crews that know roofs, gutters, and moisture management
-
Inspection services that support smart decision-making
We don’t just point out problems — we explain what they mean for your home and how to fix them cost-effectively.
