847 Maple Ave — Post-Storm Roof Inspection

Residential asphalt shingle roof following hailstorm event

Roof & Building Inspection
AI-generated analysis may contain inaccuracies. Always verify findings with a qualified professional before making decisions.

Executive Summary

FairAI Confidence: HighEst. Remaining Life: 3–5 years with repairs
1 Critical 2 Moderate 1 Minor

The roof shows moderate hail impact across the north-facing slope with granule loss concentrated near the ridge. Two sections of flashing have lifted, creating potential water infiltration points. Gutters are clogged and pulling away from the fascia on the east elevation. Immediate attention is recommended for the flashing and a full re-roof should be budgeted within the next 3–5 years.

Component Checklist

Asphalt Shingles
FairGranule loss on N slope; hail bruising visible on 35% of field
Ridge Cap
PoorCracking and displacement along 18ft of ridge line
Flashing (Chimney)
PoorLifted on two sides; sealant fully deteriorated
Gutters & Downspouts
FairDebris-clogged; E-side gutter pulling from fascia
Soffit & Fascia
GoodNo visible damage; paint in acceptable condition
Skylights
GoodSeals intact; no cracking observed
Ventilation
FairRidge vent partially blocked by debris

Damage Inventory (4)

Hail Impact

Widespread granule displacement consistent with 1–1.5" hail. Bruising visible on approx. 35% of shingle field. No full penetrations detected.

moderate
North-facing slope, primary field

Recommendation: Full slope replacement recommended; spot repair insufficient given extent of granule loss.

Lifted Flashing

Step and counter flashing has lifted 0.5–1" from the chimney substrate. Sealant has fully failed. Active water ingress likely during rain events.

critical
Chimney, south and east faces

Recommendation: Re-bed and re-seal flashing immediately. Inspect underlying decking for moisture damage.

Ridge Cap Deterioration

Ridge cap shingles are cracking along the fold line and two have displaced. Exposure to UV and freeze-thaw cycling has accelerated degradation.

moderate
Primary ridge, 18ft section east of chimney

Recommendation: Replace affected 18ft section with new ridge cap shingles.

Gutter Separation

Gutter is pulling away from fascia board; spike fasteners have backed out. Could cause water damage to fascia and foundation if not addressed.

minor
East elevation, 24ft section

Recommendation: Re-fasten with gutter screws; inspect fascia board for rot.

Repair Recommendations

Immediate

Re-seal and re-bed chimney flashing on south and east faces to stop active water infiltration.

Complete within 2 weeks

Immediate

Replace 18ft ridge cap section along primary ridge east of chimney.

Complete within 30 days

Soon

Replace north-facing slope shingles — granule loss is beyond cosmetic threshold.

Complete within 60 days or before rainy season

Soon

Clear all gutters and downspouts; re-fasten east-side gutter with gutter screws.

Complete within 30 days

Routine

Clear debris from ridge vent to restore attic ventilation.

Complete within 90 days

Inspection Limitations

The following areas could not be fully assessed from drone altitude:

  • Attic interior not inspected; internal moisture damage cannot be assessed from aerial footage alone.
  • Exact shingle age unknown; remaining life estimate based on visible condition.
  • Footage captured in dry conditions — active leaks could not be confirmed.

Additional Observations

  • Moss growth visible on north-facing slope near eave — consider zinc strip treatment.
  • HVAC unit on roof appears secure; screen intact.
  • One vent pipe collar showing minor rust — monitor for seal failure.
