Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a roof inspection cost in Lancaster, PA?
Harlan & Sons Roofing offers free roof inspections for homeowners in the Lancaster area. There's no obligation — we want you to have the information you need to make a confident decision.
How long does a roof inspection take?
Most residential inspections take 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. We take time to be thorough rather than rushing through a checklist.
What does a roof inspection actually cover?
We inspect shingles, flashing, ridge caps, gutters, soffits, fascia, valleys, skylights, and any penetrations like chimneys or vents. Inside your attic, we also look for signs of moisture intrusion, inadequate ventilation, or structural concerns.
Do I need a roof inspection after a storm?
Yes — Lancaster experiences significant wind, hail, and ice events that can cause damage that isn't visible from the ground. Storm damage often worsens quickly, so a prompt inspection can prevent a minor issue from becoming a major repair.
Can I use a Harlan & Sons inspection report for an insurance claim?
Absolutely. Our inspectors document damage with detailed photos and notes that are useful when filing a homeowner's insurance claim. We can walk you through what we found so you're prepared when you speak with your adjuster.
How often should a Lancaster homeowner get their roof inspected?
We recommend an inspection at least once a year, plus after any significant storm. Pennsylvania's winter ice and summer thunderstorms put real stress on roofing systems, and catching small issues early saves money in the long run.
