Why Allied Inspections Are Different From Every Other Monroe Roofer

Most Monroe roof inspections take 10–15 minutes and involve a salesperson on a ladder at the eave. Allied’s inspection takes 60–90 minutes and involves an experienced roofer using drone photography to capture every slope — including the rear slopes and valleys that ladders can’t reach and ground inspection can’t see.

The Patricia C. case in Forsythe Park explains this perfectly: another Monroe contractor quoted her a full roof replacement at $13,500 after a 10-minute driveway inspection. Allied’s inspector spent 75 minutes on and around the roof with drone photography. Finding: three cracked shingles and loose chimney flashing. Repair cost: $285. Allied told her the truth and lost the sale. She called us back 14 months later for the actual full replacement when her roof genuinely needed it.

If we inspect and your roof doesn’t need work — we tell you that. Always.

What Allied’s 47-Point Inspection Covers

Shingle Condition

Granule loss assessment, curling and cupping evaluation, cracking and blistering, hail impact marks (visible and microscopic), wind lift and unsealed tabs, overall age and remaining life estimate.

Flashing & Seals

Chimney flashing and counter-flashing, pipe boot seals, skylight perimeters, wall-to-roof transitions, valley metal condition, drip edge integrity. Flashing failures are the #1 cause of Monroe roof leaks.

Ventilation Assessment

Net Free Vent Area (NFVA) calculation vs. Louisiana code requirements. 90%+ of Monroe homes built before 2000 are under-ventilated — a condition that cuts shingle lifespan by 3–5 years and voids manufacturer warranties. We measure and document your attic ventilation on every inspection.

Decking Evaluation

Moisture meter readings on accessible decking, visual inspection of exposed edges for rot or delamination, identification of original plank decking (common in Garden District and Lakeshore pre-1960 homes). Decking condition affects replacement cost and is often not assessed until mid-job by other contractors.

Gutters & Drainage

Granule accumulation (indicates shingle wear), gutter attachment and slope, downspout discharge locations, fascia condition behind gutters. Monroe’s 53-inch annual rainfall makes drainage assessment critical.

Hail & Storm Evidence

Soft-metal denting on gutters, AC fins, and flashings (primary hail confirmation), test square impact counting on all slopes, correlation to recent NWS storm data for Ouachita Parish. We tell you whether you have a viable insurance claim — before you call your insurer.

Questions Monroe Homeowners Ask About Roof Inspections

How often should Monroe homeowners get a roof inspection?
At minimum: annually for roofs over 15 years old, and after every significant storm event regardless of roof age. Monroe’s hail corridor makes post-storm inspection essential — hail damage that goes uninspected for one wet season can progress from a $3,000 repair claim to a $15,000 full replacement that insurance no longer covers because you exceeded the 60–90 day filing window. For homes in Garden District and Forsythe Park where roofs are often 30–50 years old, biannual inspection is advisable.
Do I need to be home for the inspection?
For the roof exterior inspection, no — Allied’s inspector can complete the drone and exterior inspection without access to the interior. However, for a complete 47-point report that includes attic ventilation assessment and interior moisture readings, we need brief access to your attic. The inspection report is delivered same day via email or text in either case. We schedule arrival windows that work around your schedule.
Why do I need drone photography for a roof inspection? Can’t you just use a ladder?
Ladder inspections miss 60–70% of hail damage and cannot safely access all roof slopes. Allied uses drone photography to capture every slope at resolution sufficient to identify granule loss patterns, mat bruising, and impact marks that cannot be seen from ground level or a perimeter ladder position. For insurance claim documentation, adjuster-standard photography requires coverage of every slope — not just the ones accessible by ladder. Drone documentation is what separates a 97% claim approval rate from the Monroe industry average.
A storm hit Monroe three weeks ago. Is it too late to get an inspection for insurance?
No — call Allied immediately at(318) 506-8208. Louisiana insurance policies require claims to be filed within 60–90 days of the storm event. You still have time. Allied will inspect, document, correlate to NWS storm records, and have your claim documentation ready before the adjuster visit. The window is not closed. Every day of delay does reduce your window, so don’t wait.
What if Allied’s inspection shows my roof is fine? Do I owe anything?
Nothing. The inspection is free regardless of what we find. If your roof is in good condition, Allied will tell you that, provide a written report documenting current condition and estimated remaining life, and give you a timeline for when to expect natural replacement need. We lose the sale — and we prefer losing the sale to selling you a roof you don’t need. That’s what produces 150+ Google reviews at 4.9 stars.

What Happens After the Inspection

Written report delivered same day

47-point condition assessment, drone photos of every slope, specific findings, recommended action (or documentation that no action is needed), and if storm damage is present — a preliminary insurance claim assessment.

Estimate provided within 24 hours

If work is needed, a written, itemized estimate is delivered within 24 hours — no phone estimates, no “ballpark” figures that expand later. All permit fees included. No surprise charges.

No pressure, no follow-up calls

Allied does not engage in follow-up sales calls after an inspection. If you want to proceed, you call us. If you need time to compare estimates or consult your spouse, take it. The written report and estimate are yours with no obligation.

Insurance claim preparation (if applicable)

If storm damage is found and a claim is warranted, Allied prepares the full adjuster documentation package — NWS correlation, test square counts, drone photos, written scope — at no additional cost. We attend the adjuster inspection and review the settlement offer before you sign.
