Asking for a Roof Certification Can Help Your Client and the Seller Come to Terms

If your client is interested in a home, but worried about the age or appearance of the roof, you can request that the seller obtain a roof certification. At a fraction of the cost of recovering the roof, the seller can remove your concerns and avoid ugly negotiations. A home inspection cannot do this. The home inspection is too general to uncover many of the problems, and the report typically avoids an opinion on the roof by simply recommending follow-on inspection by a roofing professional.

While a home inspection limits its opinion to current findings, a LeakFREE® Roof Certification from Cert-A-Roof can tell you that the roof is very unlikely to have any leaks for at least two years. Before certifying a roof, we use our proprietary inspection process. If we uncover any existing problems or any areas requiring preventative maintenance, those repairs have to be performed before we will issue the certification. That’s because we stand behind our opinion for two years – ready to provide up to $5,000 in repair services to stop any leaks from normal wear-and-tear.

We also understand how important it is to provide timely, respectful service to support potential sales and smooth, timely closings.

Call us now to qualify for a LeakFREE Certification.

Don’t wait another day without protection and peace-of-mind!

A very Merry Christmas to you and your family.” – Neil Smith, Coto de Caza, CA

Cert-A-Roof Client Reviews

Quality unfiltered reviews by our customers. 5.0 out of 5 stars. Highly recommend Cert-A-Roof

 

On time, worked in a very clean fashion, courteous, and diagnosed the problem expediently. Would highly recommend!” – Amy B., Yorba Linda, CA Rating: 5 out of 5

Paul and his crew did a great job with our roof. We had dry rot and termite damage on a considerable amount of our facia and eaves. We had Paul and his crew remove our tile roof, replace the wood, and re-paper. His crew was on time every day and worked full days completing the job on time. They were very careful and kept the job site clean. They also took care of some small details that we wanted addressed.  Communication was good and the cost was competitive. I would definitely recommend them to one of my friends.” – Berg B., Yorba Linda, CA Rating: 5 out of 5

Paul showed up on time for an inspection, and he was very kind. He explained all the issues, showed pictures, and he was very patient when he was answering our questions. They have sent the report at promised time. Great service at all. Definitely will work with him again.” – Adam A., Pasadena, CA Rating: 5 out of 5

Paul was exceptional. We are in escrow and very few companies are willing to inspect and certify a roof on a home that is in escrow (liability reasons). Paul was extremely professional, responsive, and knowledgable about roofing. Most importantly, he is honest. He will tell you what the roof needs, how much he would charge to do the work, but also that you might be able to shop it around for better pricing. But going with Cert A Roof may just be worth slightly higher pricing because they have been in the roofing business for more than just one generation. They really know their stuff and would do quality work that lasts. They follow the regulations and legal codes strictly and don’t cut corners. For roofing work, it’s not worth the risk of hiring someone who may cut corners.” – Sp H., Irvine, CA Rating: 5 out of 5

Our roof was re-felt a few months ago and we were impressed by the quality of the work performed. I was also impressed by their cleanliness after the work was performed each day, compared to other contractors hired to do other work to our home.  Throughout the 7-8 days it took to complete the job, I was able to communicate with the foreman as well as Paul to confirm, change, or add new work to the current job, and they never seemed bothered nor rushed.  I am confident our roof will be leak free for many years to come due to the quality of their work.  Thanks guys!” – Alex R., Chino, CA Rating: 5 out of 5

Bill Hogue was great! Very thorough with a roof inspection and explained all the issues and itemized what needed to be fixed. Made me more confident in my house purchase knowing why the items are we needed to address along with their costs.” – Ben A., El Segundo, Los Angeles, CA Rating: 5 out of 5
