Wood shake roofs can last up to 30 years, while 50 years is the average life for slate, copper, and tile roofs. The one thing all these roofs have in common is wear and tear. That’s why we offer free roof inspections in New York and New Jersey. Wear and tear on a roof occurs even during periods when there are no significant weather events. Normal weather, animals, and other environmental factors all contribute to the degradation of roofing materials over time. Throw in a couple of severe storms here and there and that normal wear and tear can be exacerbated. Should You Get Your Roof Inspected?

Call Us BEFORE Your Insurance Company There are times when rough weather can cause damage to roofs here in New York and New Jersey. Did you know it’s better to call an experienced roofer before contacting your insurance company for a possible claim? It’s true. Just because other roofs in your neighborhood suffered damage doesn’t mean there is damage to your roof. If you call your insurance company, they send an adjuster and it turns out there is no storm-related damage to your roof, you will have filed a zero-pay claim. That claim goes against you even though your insurance company won’t be paying you a dime. A better strategy is to call A & J Reliable, Inc. for a free roof inspection. We can tell you: If your roof shows signs of damage; How bad the damage is; and Whether or not the damage was likely caused by the storm in question. With our free roof evaluation, you’ll instantly know whether or not to contact your insurance company to make a claim. If you do need to make a claim, you will already know what the damage is and what needs to be done to fix it. This gives you a bit more leverage when dealing with the insurance adjuster.
