Flashing replacement
The metal that seals every joint
A proper inspection covers the covering, every penetration, all flashing runs, the roof space from inside, and the ventilation balance — then tells you what is wrong, what will be wrong within a couple of years, and what can wait. It is worth doing annually in storm-prone areas and before buying a property. A survey that only looks from the ground, or only from a drone, misses the attic entirely, which is where the most useful evidence usually is.
Hernando County sits on a stretch of coast where hurricane exposure is the defining fact of roofing. Sustained wind drives rain horizontally under shingle courses that would shed any vertical downpour, and it works tabs loose over hours rather than tearing them off — so the roof reads as undamaged right up until the next storm. Between seasons, the heat and humidity across Hernando County harden every rubber and sealant component and keep anything that gets wet from drying. The insurance picture matters as much as the weather here: Florida's market has reshaped how roof claims are handled, deductibles for named storms are calculated differently from ordinary ones, and documentation taken before any work starts is what decides how a claim goes.
It is a sales visit. That is not automatically bad, but the incentive is to find work, and a free inspection rarely includes attic access or a written report. A charged inspection you can hand to someone else is a different product.
Annually in a hail or storm-prone area, otherwise every two to three years, and always after a significant storm. The damage that causes leaks is usually invisible from the ground, which is exactly why it goes unnoticed.
