Loveridge Roofing Provides High Value Services for Realtors in the Denver Metro Area

Property buyers, sellers and realtors trust Loveridge Roofing for thorough inspections and unbiased roofing reports and appraisals. Our certified, licensed, and trained employees install all materials according to the exacting specifications for each manufacturer, ensuring not only a valid warranty, but the maximum roof life span possible for the given conditions.

Relatively new roofs may appear fine when examined from the ground level, and some consider roof inspections unnecessary expenditures. However, often roofs are improperly installed. The seasoned eyes of Loveridge Roofing's skilled inspectors can frequently find inadequate fasteners, shingles improperly attached, and/or critical roof interface locations such as flashings, valleys, skylights, gutters and chimneys that don't meet industry standards that result in compromised roof life and/or safety hazards.  for all your real-estate-related residential or commercial roofing needs.

As a service to real estate companies and potential home buyers, we offer a 5-year roof certification which certifies that the roof will be leak-free for 5-years.

Loveridge Roofing performs the following visual inspections and related roof repair tasks with each 5-Year Roof Certification:

  • Overall roof integrity, functionality and appearance.
  • No missing or damaged shingles or tiles (including weather damage such as hail).
  • No fascia or soffit damage.

After the on-site inspection, if our roof inspector does not feel that the roof can be certified, we will suggest appropriate repairs that must be completed to finish the certification. The Loveridge Roofing 5-Year Roof Certification Program is thorough. We check a wide variety of important roofing trouble spots; we know what to look for, such as potential water/snow dams. When we have completed our extensive inspection, you can rest assured that a certified roof will perform as expected for the full duration of the 5-year program, and typically far, far beyond.
