This month we are focusing on roofs and their components (as you can see from our last blog). In this blog I wanted to mention a maintenance item that I find very often on a home inspection – metal ridge caps.
We actually find these on brand new roofs and they are still used in some areas. They were the most popular 10-20 years ago for the most part though. Metal ridge caps tend to leak though. I see many roof leaks that seem large and have many people scared, but usually end up being just the ridge cap.
Before you “throw that roof out” and pay for a new one, make sure your home inspector checks that aspect of your roof.
Contact CT Pro Inspection today for more information! We're happy to help you with all of your home inspection needs.
I am thinking to install one on the roof but don't have enough budget. So, if there is any roof repair company that can do it at a reasonable cost, feel free to pm me.
