Two Reasons Homeowners Call Us About Their Roof
Nearly every roof inspection call we get in Brevard County comes down to one of two situations — and we built this service for both:
Insurance Wants a Roof Certification
Your carrier is asking for documentation of your roof's condition and remaining life before they'll write or renew your policy. This has become routine in Florida for shingle roofs near 15 years and tile near 20.
- Signed certification from a licensed inspector
- Condition + remaining-life documentation insurers accept
- Same-day turnaround for renewal deadlines
- Pair with wind mitigation ($125) for premium discounts
You're Being Told You Need a New Roof
Before you commit to a $12,000–$25,000 replacement, get a documented answer: does the roof actually need replacing now, or will a repair buy you years? Know exactly where your roof stands before you make a five-figure decision.
- Inspected by a licensed roofing contractor (CCC1336594)
- Honest remaining-life estimate with photo evidence
- Repair vs. replace recommendation
- A documented scope of work to guide replacement quotes
The math is simple: the average asphalt roof replacement in Brevard County runs $12,000–$25,000. A $100–$300 inspection that confirms your roof has five more good years — or that a $900 repair solves the problem — is the highest-ROI decision in the entire process. And if you genuinely do need a new roof, you'll move forward with documented facts — and our sister company PeakShield Roofing can provide a replacement quote right after the inspection.
What a SureHome Roof Inspection Covers
SureHome's lead inspector holds both Florida Home Inspector License #HI 11755 and Roofing Contractor License CCC1336594 — which means your roof is evaluated by someone who understands roof systems from the construction side, not just a checklist. Every inspection documents:
- Shingle, tile, or metal covering condition
- Granule loss, cracking, curling, and lifting
- Flashing at valleys, walls, and penetrations
- Vents, boots, and sealant condition
- Soffit, fascia, and drip edge
- Visible decking condition and sagging
- Attic-side moisture staining (where accessible)
- Prior repairs and storm damage evidence
- Estimated remaining serviceable life
- Repair vs. replace recommendation
Warning Signs Your Roof Needs an Inspection Now
Florida sun, humidity, and storm seasons age roofs faster than almost anywhere in the country. If you're seeing any of these, get eyes on the roof before the next storm season does it for you:
- Shingles in the yard after wind events
- Dark streaks, moss, or algae growth
- Granules collecting in gutters
- Ceiling stains or attic moisture smell
- Curling, cupping, or bald shingles
- Roof is 15+ years old (shingle) or 20+ (tile)
- Insurance renewal asking for documentation
- A door-knocking roofer said "total loss"
Roof Certification Inspections for Florida Insurance
Florida's insurance market has tightened hard around roof age. Carriers now routinely require a roof certification inspection — a formal, signed assessment of condition and remaining life — before writing or renewing coverage on homes with older roofs. A certification from SureHome gives your underwriter exactly the documentation they ask for, and in many cases keeps an insurable roof from being treated like an uninsurable one.
Smart move while we're up there: add a wind mitigation inspection ($125) in the same visit. The OIR-B1-1802 report documents the wind-resistant features of your roof and routinely saves Brevard homeowners hundreds per year on premiums — often more than the cost of both inspections combined.
What You Get: A Report You Can Act On
Within hours of the inspection — same day in most cases — you receive a written report with annotated photos of every finding, severity ratings, a remaining-life estimate, and a clear repair-or-replace recommendation. Use it to satisfy your insurance carrier, negotiate a home purchase, plan a repair, or hold roofing bids against an honest scope of work. See a sample report to know exactly what to expect.
