Simple roof inspection steps for Lancaster homeowners
You do not have to climb on the roof to notice early warning signs.
A careful walk around the home can tell you a lot about how the roof is doing.
Look at rooflines
From the street or yard, look for sags, dips or areas that look uneven compared to the rest of the roof.
Check edges and penetrations
Edges, vents, pipes and skylights deserve extra attention because they often leak first.
Watch for interior clues
New ceiling spots, paint bubbles or musty smells after storms can point toward hidden roof issues.
