Roof inspection Albuquerque
For a roof inspection in Albuquerque after a storm, ask for dated photos of each slope and a written list of what was found before any repair is priced.
Ask how the quote handles damaged decking; housing age is not roof age.
For extreme hail, NOAA says: “Extreme Hail: Roof damage possible to homes.” These report counts do not establish that impact level at your home. Ask the quote to name the wind and impact ratings of the covering it prices.
