Fast, Reliable Roof Inspection Across Clovis
A roof inspection in Clovis typically costs $180 – $340 for a standard single-family home, and most inspections take 60 – 90 minutes on site. At Brennan Roofing Co Fresno, we serve Clovis homeowners with written inspection reports that document wind-load nailing patterns, flashing conditions, and cool-roof compliance so you have exactly what the city and your insurer will ask for. Call (559) 785-2160 to schedule yours.
We know Clovis roofs because we work on them every week. From the 1970s ranch homes in Pinedale with low-slope transitions to the newer subdivisions north of Herndon with composition shingle roofs, our inspectors know what fails here and what holds up. The Central Valley sun doesn’t treat a roof gently, and neither do the occasional hailstorms that roll through the Sierra foothills. A disciplined inspection catches the difference between a roof that looks fine and one that actually is.

Why Brennan Roofing Co Fresno Is Clovis’s Preferred Roof Inspection Company
Clovis homeowners call us because we operate under The Garrison Standard: a written price before any work starts, background-checked uniformed technicians on every job, and a full-year written guarantee. That standard applies to inspections the same way it applies to a full roof replacement. When Travis Oakley dispatches a tech to a home in Clovis, the homeowner knows who’s coming and what the visit costs before we ever set a ladder against the gutter.
The Garrison Code is simple: the price goes on paper before the work begins, and it doesn’t move at the door. Homeowners who’ve been burned by roofers who no-show or bump the number after starting the job tell us that’s the reason they stay with us. Our Roof Inspection team writes an inspection spec free of vague language. You get a report that lists what we found, what it costs to fix, and what can wait.
We answer our phones with a live person around the clock. Not a voicemail queue, not an automated attendant. If you call (559) 785-2160 at 6 a.m. worried about a storm that rolled through Clovis overnight, a real person picks up and schedules your inspection.
Roof Inspection Services in Clovis
Roof Inspection Services in Clovis focus on what actually fails on Central Valley roofs: wind-lift on composition shingles, flashing corrosion at low-slope transitions, and heat-damaged underlayment from decades of attic temperatures that climb past 140 degrees in July. A standard inspection on a Clovis single-family home runs $180 – $340, with the higher end applying to ranch homes with multiple roof planes and low-slope sections. The inspection produces a written report with photos, measurements, and a repair spec that a permit inspector or insurance adjuster can read without asking follow-up questions.
Re-Roof Permit Inspections
When Clovis pulls a permit for a re-roof, the inspection has to verify wind-load documentation and cool-roof compliance before the final sign-off. We check the manufacturer’s nailing pattern on the existing or proposed shingle installation, verify underlayment condition at eaves and valleys, and document whether the roof surface meets Title 24 reflectance requirements. This inspection gives you the paperwork your contractor needs before the city inspector arrives.

Pre-Purchase and Insurance Inspections
Buying a home in Clovis or renewing a homeowners policy after a wind or hail claim? We provide inspection reports accepted by most insurers, with specific documentation on installation age, nailing-pattern compliance, and any hail impact evidence. The report states plainly whether the roof has remaining service life or needs replacement.

Hail Damage Roof in Clovis
Hail Damage Roof work in Clovis begins with an inspection that looks beyond obvious dents. After a storm, our inspectors check the composition shingles around the roof’s northeast exposures first, since that’s where hailstones from Sierra-fed storm cells hit hardest. A hail inspection runs the same $180 – $340 range as a standard inspection, but we document impact points with close-up photos and chalk markings tied to specific shingle fields so your insurance claim has evidence an adjuster can verify.
Hail Impact Documentation
Insurance adjusters reject hail claims when homeowners can’t show impact evidence. We mark each affected shingle, measure dent depth against the manufacturer’s published thresholds, and photograph the damage in daylight and with flash. The written report includes the storm date, impact locations, and a repair or replacement recommendation based on what GAF, CertainTeed, and Tamko shingles actually tolerate.
Wind and Hail Combined Damage
Clovis storms often bring wind before hail, which means missing shingles coexist with dented ones. Our inspection checks both failure modes: wind-lift along the roof’s leading edges and hail impact across the field. A roof with both types of damage usually triggers a full replacement under most policies, and our report spells out why.
Trusted Brands We Service in Clovis
Brennan Roofing Co Fresno installs and inspects roofing from manufacturers including GAF, CertainTeed, and Tamko. We recommend these lines for Clovis homes because their composition shingles carry wind ratings that meet local permit requirements and their cool-roof color options satisfy Title 24 without forcing you into a roof you don’t want. We also work with Boral and Owens Corning products when a homeowner has an existing roof from those lines. Having local familiarity with these manufacturers means we can match existing shingles on a repair and we can speak plainly about which product holds up best on a Clovis roof.
Common Roof Inspection Problems We See in Clovis Homes
- Missing wind-load documentation on ranch homes. Many 1980s-era Clovis roofs were installed before wind-load verification was standard. An inspection that skips the manufacturer’s nailing-pattern check produces a report that fails an insurance adjuster’s review after a wind claim.
- Low-slope transition failures in Pinedale and older subdivisions. Where a 4:12 pitch transitions to a 2:12 section, water ponds and the original 1970s flashing corrodes. Without a peel-and-stick membrane at the transition, the drip edge rusts out within a decade.
- Dark shingles that violate Clovis’s Title 24 cool-roof requirement. A cheap inspection approves a composition roof without checking reflectance ratings. The re-roof fails permit because the shingle color doesn’t meet the cool-roof standard.
- Valley metal and drip edge problems on original 1970s construction. Older Clovis ranch homes often have valley metal that’s corroded through and drip edge that’s separated from the fascia. These fail inspection and lead to interior leaks within one or two wet seasons.

FAQs About Roof Inspection in Clovis
Yes. Clovis re-roof permits require verification that the installed shingles meet the manufacturer’s wind-load rating and that the nailing pattern matches the published spec. Our inspection documents both and includes the manufacturer’s engineering data in the written report. Call (559) 785-2160 to schedule a permit-ready inspection.
We check the transition from the steeper roof plane to the low-slope section, specifically the valley metal, drip edge, and whether a peel-and-stick membrane was installed at the transition. On 1970s and 1980s ranch homes, the original flashing is often tucked behind the stucco instead of over the underlayment, which allows wind-driven rain into the soffit. We document those failures and write a repair spec that meets current Clovis building code. Call (559) 785-2160 for an exact quote.
We check the shingle’s solar reflectance index and thermal emittance against the Title 24 requirements that Clovis enforces. Dark composition shingles that don’t meet the reflectance threshold fail the re-roof permit inspection. Our report documents the shingle color, manufacturer, and compliance status so you know before the city inspector arrives.
We look for dent depth, shingle granule loss, impact points on the northeast exposures, and wind-lift along the leading edges. We document each impact with photos and measurements tied to a specific shingle field so your insurance adjuster can verify the evidence. The inspection report includes the storm date and a repair or replacement recommendation.
Yes. A documented inspection with wind-load verification and remaining service life can support a lower premium with some insurers, especially on newer roofs. The inspection gives you a written record of roof condition that helps when you renew a policy or dispute an adjuster’s assessment after a claim. Call (559) 785-2160 to schedule an inspection and get your report started.
What a Clovis Roof Inspection Actually Finds
One condition we see in Pinedale and older Clovis subdivisions that rarely appears in newer construction to the north: original 1970s flashing details that fail inspection unless the inspector specifically checks the valley metal and drip edge at low-slope transitions. Last month we inspected a 1978 ranch in Pinedale where the original composition shingles had curled over a sagging decking seam, and the step flashing at a low-slope transition was tucked behind the stucco instead of over the underlayment. Our tech caught wind-driven rain stains in the soffit before any interior leak, then wrote a repair spec using CertainTeed starter strip and ice and water shield at the eaves so the reroof would meet Clovis’s wind-load requirements for the next 30 years.
That’s the difference between an inspection that checks boxes and an inspection that catches what’s actually failing. Clovis’s mix of midsize ranch homes from the 1970s through the 1990s and newer subdivisions north of Herndon means roofers here have to handle both aging original roofs and newer construction. The intense Central Valley sun accelerates shingle deterioration on every exposure, but the low-slope sections on older ranch homes are where water gets in. We check those transitions every time.
In the Pinedale area specifically, many original 1970s roofs are reaching the end of their lifespan within the same decade. Neighbors are replacing roofs in waves, and a proper inspection tells you whether yours can wait or needs to join the cycle. The answer usually comes down to two things: flashing condition at the low-slope transitions and the presence or absence of peel-and-stick underlayment at the eaves.
