Garland Premium Roofing provides professional roof inspections in Garland, TX for residential and commercial properties across the East Fork corridor. Our report carries a section most do not. Before we look at a single shingle we photograph the mast, the weatherhead, the boot and the point of attachment, then measure the gap between the service conductors and the roof plane.
There are real numbers behind that measurement. The National Electrical Code wants eight feet of clearance above a roof surface, dropping to three feet where the slope is four in twelve or steeper. New decking and a thicker covering both eat into it, which is exactly why we take the reading before you buy a roof instead of after somebody has already raised the plane. We take the reading with a tape, not by eye.
Then the ordinary work, done slowly. Every slope walked where walking is safe and a pole camera on the ones that are not, seal strips tested by hand, each penetration checked on its own, edge metal, valleys, and the attic from underneath with the lights off so daylight shows us the holes that no amount of standing on shingles will reveal. That last step finds more than walking around on shingles does.
You get the photographs with the report, dated and captioned slope by slope, plus a plain sentence about what we found and what we would do about it. Not a number scrawled on a door hanger by somebody who never left the driveway. If the answer is that your roof has eight good years in it, that sentence appears in writing too. You can hand it to another contractor and get a comparable bid.
We inspect at no charge and we do not make it conditional on filing anything. What we will not do is find damage on request. If a neighbor's roof was totaled by a storm and yours was not, those are two roofs with two exposures and two ages, and pretending otherwise is how people end up with a claim history and no new roof. The whole service entrance check takes four extra minutes.
Timing beats frequency in this climate. An annual calendar inspection is mostly theater. Get somebody on the roof after a named hail day, after a wind event that put limbs down on your street, and before you buy a house in this city. Otherwise leave it alone and stop paying for reports that say the same thing every spring. Roofs in this city fail on events, not on birthdays.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — galvanized service mast with two-inch riser conduit, rubber-collared roof jack at a mast penetration, point of attachment lagged into a rafter tail, spaced plank decking re-sheeted with structural panels, granulated cap sheet over two-ply SBS modified bitumen, walk pads set under rooftop conduit racks — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Garland and nearby communities including Rowlett, Sachse, Rockwall, Heath.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof inspections
The difference between roof inspections that lasts and roof inspections that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with galvanized service mast with two-inch riser conduit, rubber-collared roof jack at a mast penetration, point of attachment lagged into a rafter tail, spaced plank decking re-sheeted with structural panels, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Garland job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the East Fork corridor means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Garland Chooses Garland Premium Roofing
- ✓We photograph the mast, weatherhead and point of attachment on the first visit, because on a Garland ranch the service entrance is part of the roof whether or not anyone puts it in the estimate.
- ✓Riser and mast repairs are handed to a licensed electrician on their own city permit instead of being quietly worked around, since electrical is regulated trade work in Texas and roofing is not.
- ✓We measure the clearance between the conductors and the roof plane before you buy, because new decking and a thicker covering both raise that plane and shrink the gap.
- ✓Utility work orders are booked with Garland Power and Light at the start of a job rather than the week the material is delivered, so nobody sits waiting on a truck.
