A regular roof inspection is a basis for maintaining the roof of your family home. Theoretically speaking, you should schedule a roof inspection twice a year. First in early fall, before the rains start so you can be sure your roof is ready. Then in the spring after winter precipitation and cold to exclude possible damage.
Conducting a roof inspection is a crucial step to extending your roof’s lifespan as much as possible. To do so you need an experienced and knowledgeable roofing company. This is where we at AC Matthews come in. Don’t do the inspection yourself and risk an injury. Leave it to the professionals.
As a reputable roofing contractor based in Maryland, we can offer you a range of roofing services. So if you are in Towson, Ellicott City, and the surrounding areas, contact us today. Among our services is a comprehensive and expertly guided roof inspection.
Roof Inspection Services Provided by AC Matthews
To maintain your property’s safety it is mandatory to do routine checks of the roof. We understand it is not the most convenient task, but look at it as a good investment. If you regularly inspect your roof, you’ll be able to catch small problems early on. And it is much easier and cheaper to fix them before they become worse.
If you want a detailed evaluation of your roof’s condition contact us at AC Matthews. Our experienced team will examine your entire roof to ensure a thorough assessment. During a roof inspection, we follow several steps to ensure a detailed evaluation.
During the inspection, we’ll rigorously search for any signs of leaks, damage or wear and tear. Our experts will inspect every inch of your roof to identify potentially problematic areas. We won’t leave a single tile, shingles or flashing unchecked. When we detect these issues early, we can recommend appropriate solution and act immediately.
To keep your roof in good condition, all tiles or shingles must be secure and tightly fastened. Our team will look for any loose or missing items from your roof. This helps prevent further damage and ensures the long-term stability of your roof.
After the roof inspection, you’ll get a full report that describes any problems we found. This report will include details about leaks, damages, wear and tear, or any other problem. We’ll list everything we spotted that needs fixing. We’ll give you our expert opinion on what and how these issues can be repaired.
At AC Matthews’ we don’t stop at the comprehensive analysis. Our specialists provide guidance on how to proceed with required maintenance or upgrades too. We’ll provide you with detailed instructions on how to fix the problems we found. Everything so you can make educated decisions about your roof’s upkeep and repair.
How Do We Inspect Roofs?
Call our number, send us an email, or fill out our online form to schedule an appointment for a roof inspection. We’ll get back to you within 24 hours and set a date to drive out to your area!
Check everything from the ground first. Walk the perimeter of the property to determine where the most damage lies, if there are any broken or missing shingles or tiles, what the drip edges, eaves, and vents look like, what state the gutters are in, and more.
If your home has an attic, our workers will need access to it. This allows us to check for signs of water, insulation, and ventilation damage. Sometimes we’ll be able to pinpoint exactly where the damage is coming from on the roof by inspecting the attic.
Once the inspection is complete, the inspector will detail all damages in a report and indicate what repairs will need to be made. The inspector will also give the homeowner a quote estimate. You can also take this time to ask any questions or concerns you may have with the inspector.
Finally, once the quote has been agreed to, a contract is signed with the roofing company to begin work as soon as possible, whether for minor repairs or a full roof replacement.
Roof inspections shouldn’t be left until the very last second. Plan a schedule with your roofing contractor for your roof’s inspection at least twice a year. This helps catch minor issues while they’re still manageable!

Real Customer Reviews
Posted on Google Ben Denne Great to work with. Very competent. Excellent at keeping the work area clean. Fantastic outcome.Posted on Google Frank Turano ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Roofing Company — Highly Recommend! Total roof replacement on steep three-pitched story home. I could not be happier with the outstanding job Ramon and his team did on our roof. From beginning to end, the entire experience was excellent. They were on schedule, on budget, and there were no surprise or extra charges. Ramon, our sales representative/project manager, was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. His crew showed up on time, worked hard all day, and clearly took pride in their work. The finished roof looks fantastic. Just as impressive was how carefully the crew cleaned up afterward. They left our property absolutely immaculate, with no debris or mess left behind. I received five different estimates, and their price was more competitive than the others while still providing excellent quality, workmanship, and service. This was truly a 5-star experience from start to finish. If you are looking for a roofing company that is dependable, professional, fairly priced, and delivers excellent results, I highly recommend Roman and his team! Frank August 2026Posted on Google Tina B. We obtained 3 estimates from 3 contractors. Prices were comparable, but we liked the time Ryan Mckibbon spent with us in person to educate us on options and the best choice for our home. He personally covered a leaking spot on our roof until the roof could be repaired. He answered questions timely and oversaw the entire process. Our roof has been seriously tested with all the rain these last two weeks. All is well. We are very pleased.Posted on Google Christa Wilcox Matthew is a stand up guy who does stand up work! Thank you again! :)Posted on Google Molly Reed- Baltimore & Saratoga Springs I needed a quick fix for flashing on my roof in downtown Baltimore and Ryan was quick to come out, gave me a reasonable quote, and then fixed it promptly. The whole process was easy and enjoyable. Thanks to the AC Matthews team!Posted on Google Mrs. W We were initially referred to AC Matthews Roofing by the Pro Referral program through Home Depot, which only refers vetted, licensed and background checked professionals. It has been great working with AC Matthews and Ramon especially. We have a rather unique roof that needed replacement, it was double layered in portions and not in others which was standard practice in previous decades. It is an additional complication for repairs and it was reaching the end of its lifespan. From the first meeting with Ramon of AC Matthews, it was a great experience. He was thorough and precise. He inspected to determine which parts of our roof had double layers and which parts didn’t, a situation some other companies had missed. When we received the quote, we were very impressed with the transparency and detail in the quote. It was also very reasonable and competitive. They were able to provide us the satellite roof measurements (not all roofs are eligible but ours qualified) to compare with their in-person measurements for additional accuracy checks. It really helped in getting a more precise and complete measurement of our roof. It really was the best practice of measuring twice and cutting once. Ramon also provided all the pictures he took of our roof, which gave us confirmation it was in need of a replacement and repairs were not going to really extend its useful lifespan. We asked many questions regarding the roofing options and types, which Ramon answered very well and in detail. It was very informative and helpful in us making an informed decision about what would be best suited for our situation and roofing requirements. Ramon was very patient with us and the attention explaining precisely and in detail was exceptional and went above and beyond. Everything was very smooth and relaxed, there was no pressure which we appreciated since it’s already a stressful endeavor to tackle a roof replacement even with going the route of insurance coverage.Posted on Google Joseph Lecher My fiance and I just bought a house knowing we would need a new roof almost immediately. We reached out to 4 different roofing companies and ultimately decided to go with AC Matthews. Zack Wolford was recommended to us by a friend and we had an exceptional experience working with him. Zack was professional, informative, and most importantly, very communicative (an extremely rare trait to find among contractors these days). Zack came out and took pictures of our roof to give us a quote and even tarped a rough area on the roof for free since there were heavy rains coming between then and when our new roof was supposed to get installed. Overall, Zack and AC Matthews gave us a phenomenal, hassle free experience for a surprisingly affordable value.Posted on Google Michael Berkey They work hard to make every detail just right. They don’t want any payment until we are completely satisfied. It’s a very pleasant experience to get needed work done, promptly and fairly priced.Posted on Google Elle G AC Matthews and Project Mgr. Ryan McKibbin just finished our roof project and it looks amazing! They converted the slate roof on our 1942 home to a beautiful new shingled roof, replaced the skylights, and installed new gutters and downspouts. We took a looonnnggg time researching roofers and are very happy with our selection. It’s one of the biggest projects for your home so it’s a huge decision. Ryan helped us every step of the way with great patience, skill and professionalism. He answered all our concerns and questions and was very responsive and very present throughout the job. We decided to add insulation in our somewhat challenging (due to a/c handlers) attic, and also needed repairs in the upstairs plaster ceilings due to leaks from the old roof. Ryan and his team took care of everything and it was so convenient for us and everything turned out to exceed our expectations. What a relief to have this all done, and done so well. Thank you, Ryan and AC Matthews!

If you spot water stains, drips, or damp spots on your ceiling, act quickly. Contact AC Matthews for a free roof inspection. Delaying repairs can lead to more severe and costly damage. We’ll identify the source of the leak and recommend the most effective repair or replacement option.
Gutter guards are protective covers that prevent leaves, debris, and pests from clogging your gutters. They help keep water flowing away from your home, reducing the risk of water damage and foundation issues. If your gutters frequently clog or you want to minimize seasonal maintenance, gutter guards are a smart investment. AC Matthews offers professional gutter guard installation tailored to your home.
