Fast, Reliable Roof Inspection Across Dallas
A roof inspection in Dallas typically runs $150 to $450 for a standard single-family home, and most inspections take 60 to 90 minutes on site. We walk the roof, check the attic, and put the findings in writing with photos so you know exactly what you’re dealing with. That number goes on paper before we ever set a ladder against your eave. Call (903) 499-4441 to schedule one.
Brennan Roofing Co Dallas runs inspections across the whole metro, from the 1970s ranches in Richardson to the acreage spreads south of the city in Seagoville and Hutchins. Travis Oakley runs our Dallas operation under the Garrison Standard, and that means the same disciplined process on every property. You get a document you can read and a price you can hold us to. Not a verbal estimate that evaporates when the first storm rolls through.
Why Brennan Roofing Co Dallas Is Dallas’s Preferred Roof Inspection Company
We’ve built our reputation in Dallas on showing up when we say we will and writing down what we find. Homeowners here have dealt with roofers who no-show, push a higher number at the door, or leave nails in the driveway. We don’t operate that way. Every inspector who steps onto a Dallas roof is background-checked and in uniform, so you know exactly who’s walking your ridge line.
Our phones are answered by a live person around the clock. Not a voicemail queue. Not an automated tree. When a storm tears through Lake Highlands at midnight and you need someone out there before your insurance adjuster shows up, you get a human on the line who can dispatch a crew. Dallas homeowners consistently tell us that single fact changes how they think about roofing contractors.
We know the housing stock here. We know which 1990s tract developments had CertainTeed decking that rots around valleys. We know how the August heat accelerates granule loss on south-facing slopes across Garland and Mesquite. That local knowledge means our inspections catch things a drive-by estimate misses.
Styles & brands we work with
Free Roof Inspection in Dallas
A Roof Inspection from our Dallas team is free when it’s tied to a potential repair or replacement. We climb up, walk every slope, map the flashing, check the decking, and document what we see with photos. You get a written report and a written quote. If the roof is sound, we tell you that too. We don’t invent problems to manufacture a sale.
What We Check
Every inspection covers the visible roof surface, the flashing at penetrations and valleys, the drip edge, fascia, and the condition of the underlayment where we can see it. We also walk the attic when there’s access. Ventilation problems, decking rot, and baffle blockages show up there first, long before they become ceiling stains inside the house.
When Dallas Homeowners Call Us
Most calls come after a hailstorm, right before a home sale, or when a buyer’s inspector flagged something and the homeowner wants a second opinion from a roofer rather than a generalist. We also inspect roofs that hit the 15 to 20 year mark, because composition shingles in Dallas weather rarely make it to their stated lifespan.
Roof Inspection Companies in Dallas
There are a lot of Roof Inspection in Dallas companies that will drive over, glance up from the curb, and hand you a number. That’s not an inspection. We put boots on the roof. We check the things that actually fail here: hail bruising, granule loss that will turn into thermal cracking, flashing that’s pulling away from brick chimneys, and valleys where debris dams water against the shingle line.
What Separates a Real Inspection
A real inspection gives you a document, not a pitch. You get photos of the damage, a map of where it sits on the roof, and a price to fix it. That price is written before any work starts and it does not move at the door. Under the Garrison Standard, that’s not a courtesy. It’s the way every job runs, every time.
Free Second Look When It Fails
If we repair something and it fails within a year, we come back and fix it at no charge. That’s the 365-Day Done Right Promise, in writing, for one full year. A lot of Dallas homeowners tell us they’ve never had a roofer put that in writing before. We do, every single time.
Trusted Brands We Service in Dallas
We inspect and install roofs built from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, Tamko, and Boral materials. When a Dallas homeowner has a certain shingle line on their roof and wants to know whether hail damaged it or whether it’s simply aging out, we can tell them in plain terms. We keep local stock access for common repair materials, so a follow-up fix doesn’t wait on a special order. And we explain the differences honestly, because a 30-year architectural shingle from Tamko is not always the right call on a south-facing Dallas slope that bakes at 105°F every summer.
Common Roof Inspection Problems We See in Dallas Homes
- Granule loss on south-facing slopes. Dallas summers push roof surface temperatures far past 140°F. Shingles shed granules, then the asphalt underneath dries and cracks. We see this on nearly every 15-plus-year-old roof we inspect south of Mesquite.
- Flashing pulling away from brick chimneys. Older Dallas homes often have brick masonry chimneys. The metal flashing that seals the roof-to-brick transition corrodes and separates, and water follows the gap straight into the attic.
- Valley dams on long ranch rooflines. On sprawling single-story ranches out toward Seagoville and Hutchins, valleys collect wind-blown debris. That debris traps water against the shingle line, and eventually the decking rots underneath.
- Detached structures leaking independently of the house. We inspect the shop roof, the barn roof, the detached garage roof. A lot of roofers never step off the main house. Out here, a leaking shop roof means a wet riding mower and a rotten wall plate.

AfterPricing for Roof Inspection in Dallas, TX
A standard roof inspection in Dallas runs $150 to $450 depending on the size of the roof, the number of slopes, and whether there are detached structures to inspect. A simple single-story ranch with one main ridge line sits at the lower end. A two-story traditional with multiple valleys and a detached shop sits at the upper end. If you’re calling about a roof we may repair or replace, the inspection is free and the written quote comes with it. You won’t pay a separate line item for us to tell you what’s wrong.
Materials and repair pricing depend on what we find. A flashing repair typically runs $350 to $900 around Dallas. A ridge vent replacement runs $450 to $1,200. A full reroof of a 2,000-square-foot ranch with architectural shingles runs $12,000 to $18,000 depending on decking condition. Every number goes on paper before any work starts.
We Also Serve Cities Near Dallas
Brennan Roofing Co Dallas runs inspections and repairs across Mesquite, Hutchins, Lancaster, and Garland. Many of our customers live on acreage outside city limits, where county rules apply rather than city code. That changes how we approach the inspection, and it’s a big part of why homeowners call us from outside the city proper.

FAQs About Roof Inspection in Dallas
For a roof inspection itself, no permit is required in unincorporated Dallas County. We’re documenting condition, not altering the structure. If the inspection finds damage that requires repair or replacement, then the county’s permitting rules apply to the work, not the inspection. Call (903) 499-4441 and we’ll walk you through what your property triggers before you pay anything.
We dispatch inspectors into Lake Highlands and surrounding Dallas neighborhoods the same week a storm passes, often within 24 to 48 hours when you call (903) 499-4441. Getting our written inspection before the adjuster walks the roof means you have your own documented findings in hand. That changes the conversation when their estimate comes back low.
We inspect every roof on the property. The main house, the detached shop, the barn, the ADU, even a lean-to. A lot of Dallas-area owners on acreage tell us other roofers never walked past the house. On a two-acre spread near Seagoville, our crew found a 1990s ranch where the original CertainTeed decking had rotted around a valley, and the septic drain field ran only ten feet from the eave. We flagged the flashing penetration and the setback conflict before quoting any new architectural shingles. That’s what a real inspection covers.
Yes. Thermal cracking shows as long, vertical splits running with the shingle’s granule pattern, usually concentrated on south and west slopes that get the hardest sun. Hail damage shows as circular bruising, often with granule loss in a distinct impact pattern and soft spots you can feel under thumb pressure. Dallas weather hands us both, often on the same roof. We document which is which because it matters for insurance claims.
We inspect every valley on the roof, not a sample. On a long ranch roofline, valleys are where water concentrates, and where decking rot almost always starts. If we find valley rot, the quote includes decking replacement in those specific areas, and the price reflects it. That’s what we mean by a written price before any work starts: the number accounts for what we found, so it doesn’t move once the shingles come off. For an exact quote on your property, call (903) 499-4441.
