Most roof inspections are sales calls with a ladder. The useful version produces a document you can act on: what condition each slope is in, what is failing and how soon, and roughly how many years are left. That report is worth having whether you are buying a house, selling one, considering a claim, or simply want to know how long you have to plan.
What this means in Falcon specifically
Hail exposure here
Open plains east of the Springs with no terrain to break storms. Falcon and Meridian Ranch take direct hail with regularity, and because the housing stock went up largely in one wave through the 2000s and 2010s, whole neighborhoods reach hail-damaged condition at the same time. Insurance claim activity here is heavy and adjusters know the area well.
What the roofs are like here
Builder-grade architectural asphalt across large 2000s and 2010s subdivisions, mostly simple gable and hip forms on generous footprints. Simple geometry keeps replacement cost per square reasonable, but the uniform build age means the whole area is entering replacement together.
Snow load and ice damming
Snow tends to blow rather than accumulate. Drifting against parapets, valleys and north-facing slopes causes uneven load and localised ice damming, while adjacent exposed sections stay bare.
Wind exposure
The most wind-exposed part of our service area. No windbreak in any direction, and sustained wind is the dominant force on these roofs. Shingle uplift at rakes and ridges is routine, and roofs here age visibly faster on the windward side.
Falcon sits at approximately 6,900 feet.

How we do it
- 1
Walk the roof
Where it is safe to. Some pitches and surfaces are not walkable, and we will tell you when the inspection had to be done from a ladder or drone instead of pretending otherwise.
- 2
Document everything
Photographs of each slope and each defect, with location noted. The report should let someone who was not there understand the roof.
- 3
Check the attic
Underside staining, daylight, compressed or wet insulation, and inadequate ventilation are all visible from inside and invisible from above.
- 4
Report with a timeline
Not just condition but timing. "Five to seven years, watch the north valley" is useful. "It looks old" is not.
What it costs
Free, with no obligation, and the written report is yours to keep.
We quote Falcon properties before starting, and the number you hear is the number you pay. If something on site changes the scope, you hear about it before we do the work rather than on the invoice.

Inspection questions from Falcon
How often should a roof be inspected?
Every two to three years on a roof under fifteen, annually after that, and after any significant hail or wind event. In this region the storm-triggered inspection matters more than the calendar one.
Do you charge for it?
No, and the report is yours regardless of what you do next. An inspection that only exists to produce a quote is not worth having.
Can you inspect for a home purchase?
Yes, and it is worth doing separately from the general home inspection. General inspectors are competent generalists who often assess roofs from the ground or a ladder at the eave. A roof-specific inspection on a purchase can change the negotiation materially.
What if you find nothing wrong?
Then we tell you that and you have documentation showing the condition and date. That is a good outcome, not a wasted visit.
