Roof Inspection
Free Roof Inspections on Long Island
Photos of your actual roof. Honest answer. No sales pitch.
Short answer
A LaRocco roof inspection is free and takes about 45 minutes. We inspect the roof surface, flashing, valleys, penetrations, gutters and the attic underside, then give you a photo report showing the roof's real condition, its remaining service life and any storm damage worth claiming. There is no obligation and no charge, anywhere in Nassau County, Suffolk County or Queens, NY.
Most people find out their roof is failing when it's already raining on their living room. An inspection is the cheap version of that discovery — and ours is free, because the fastest way to lose a customer for good is to sell them a roof they didn't need.
You get photographs. Not a verbal 'yeah, it's shot' from someone standing on your lawn — actual pictures of your actual roof, including everything you can't see from the ground, with a straight answer about how many winters it has left.

Our process
How we run a roof inspection job
The same five steps on every job, whether it's a cracked pipe boot or a full tear-off.
Free on-site inspection
We walk the roof, check the attic and photograph what we find. You see the same pictures we do — including the parts of your roof you can't get to.
A written, itemized quote
One clear number, broken down by material and labor. No pressure, no vanishing discount that expires tonight, no surprise change orders halfway through.
Permits, materials, scheduling
We pull the town permits, order the material and give you a firm start date and a realistic finish date for the weather we're working in.
Installation by our own crew
Property gets tarped and protected before a single shingle comes off. Most residential roofs are torn off and re-roofed in one to two days.
Clean-up and final walkthrough
Magnet sweep for nails, debris hauled away, then we walk it with you before we ask for final payment and hand over your warranty paperwork.

FAQ
Roof Inspection — answered
Is the roof inspection really free?
Yes — free, and with no obligation. We'd rather be the company you call in four years when the roof genuinely needs replacing than the one that pressured you into it today.
How often should a roof be inspected?
Once a year is sensible on Long Island, plus after any major storm. Older roofs and homes under big trees benefit from spring and fall checks.
Do you inspect roofs for a home purchase?
Yes. Buyers and sellers both ask us to assess a roof's condition and remaining life before closing. It's a common negotiating point and worth knowing before you sign.
Will you tell me my roof is fine if it is?
Yes, and we do it regularly. A large share of inspections end with 'you've got years left, clean your gutters, call us in the spring.' That's the whole business model.
