Home Inspection: a soft, sagging roof area
A soft spot in the roof needs more than a photo. This excerpt identifies the affected area, explains the concern and recommends a roofing contractor’s evaluation. Annotated photos show where to look.

Before you book
Common questions.
Can I attend the inspection?
Yes. You are welcome to attend and follow along. Eaton will review the important findings with you near the end and answer your questions.
How long does an inspection take?
It depends on the home’s size, age, condition and systems. A smaller, straightforward home may take around 2.5 hours. Larger or more complicated properties can take substantially longer.
When will I receive the report?
Your Spectora report arrives the same day. Call or text Eaton after reading it if you have questions.
Which additional services should I choose?
Choose services that fit the property and your concerns. A sewer scope checks inside the sewer line; foundation elevations add measurements to the visual evaluation. Ask Eaton if you are unsure which services are useful for the home.
Do you inspect condos and townhomes?
Yes. Tell Eaton about shared systems, association responsibilities and access restrictions when scheduling. Also mention detached structures or other unusual features.
