Changes Worth Discussing on a House Roof
What to Report Before an Inspection
Report broad wear, missing material, recurring moisture, deck staining or a changed roofline. A fresh stain may be active without dripping at the moment. Compare photographs and note weather conditions to help the contractor understand a problem that appears only occasionally.
Keep people away from unsafe ceilings and wet electrical areas. Leave roof investigation to the contractor; verify Kansas registration and Lawrence's separate Class D roofing license.

Age, Repairs and Hidden Roof Layers
An older home's roof may have been replaced several times. Gather previous covering, attic alteration and repair records rather than assuming materials are original. Ask what the contractor can assess before removal and what remains concealed.
