Most Albuquerque homeowners don’t think about their roof until they see that first water stain on the ceiling. By then, you’re already dealing with interior damage, mold risk, and costly repairs. At Just Roofing & Gutters, we’ve performed thousands of inspections across neighborhoods like Sandia Heights, Taylor Ranch, and Corrales after our intense summer monsoons. We know exactly where New Mexico’s harsh sun, thermal expansion, and seasonal winds cause hidden damage. A professional inspection with us isn’t an expense—it’s the most affordable form of roof insurance you can buy.
New Mexico’s climate is uniquely tough on roofing materials. What looks fine from your yard often has hidden issues:
UV Damage: Our 300+ days of sun degrade shingles 40% faster than in milder climates
Thermal Stress: 50°+ daily temperature swings cause expansion/contraction cracks
Monsoon Season: Summer storms with hail and 50+ mph winds lift shingles and damage flashing
Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Winter moisture seeps into tiny cracks, then expands when it freezes
Unlike “binocular inspections” from some companies, our certified technicians perform hands-on assessments following this detailed checklist:
Exterior Components:
Shingle/Tile Condition: Checking for cracks, curling, granule loss, and storm damage
Flashing Integrity: Metal around chimneys, vents, and walls (where 80% of leaks start)
Sealant & Caulking: All penetrations and edges inspected for weathering
Gutter System: Pitch, clogs, leaks, and proper water diversion from foundation
Soffit & Fascia: Signs of rot, pest damage, or poor ventilation
Valley Areas: Critical water channels checked for proper sealing
Roof Deck: Sagging, uneven areas, or structural concerns
Interior & Attic (When Accessible):
8. Water Intrusion: Stains, mold, or rot on underside of roof deck
9. Ventilation: Proper airflow to prevent heat/moisture buildup
10. Insulation: Adequate levels and proper installation
11. Light Penetration: Any daylight visible indicates immediate issues
Performance Factors:
12. Storm Damage Documentation: Hail hits, wind damage, and uplift evidence
13. Material Life Assessment: Remaining lifespan estimation based on wear patterns
14. Previous Repair Quality: Evaluation of any past workmanship
15. Insurance Readiness: Documentation for potential claims
