Fast, Reliable Roof Inspection Across Hanford
A roof inspection in Hanford typically costs $180 to $340 for a standard single-family home, with most inspections completed in 60 to 90 minutes. We schedule throughout Hanford’s neighborhoods, from the older tracts north of downtown to the newer subdivisions on the east side, and our crews arrive with ladders, moisture meters, and written reporting that tells you exactly what your roof needs.
Brennan Roofing Co Fresno serves Hanford homeowners with the same standard we hold everywhere in the Central Valley: a written price before any work starts, background-checked uniformed technicians on every call, and a full-year guarantee on every repair or replacement we recommend. Call (559) 785-2160 to schedule your inspection.
Why Brennan Roofing Co Fresno Is Hanford’s Preferred Roof Inspection Company
Hanford homeowners call us because our inspectors work the same way they’d expect a neighbor to work: direct, careful, and accountable. We’re part of the Garrison Partners family, founded in 2000, and our Hanford inspections follow what we call the Garrison Standard. Every technician is background-checked and uniformed, and you get a live person on the phone 24/7, never a voicemail queue.
Our Roof Inspection team knows what Hanford’s older housing stock demands. Homes built between the 1950s and 1980s dominate much of the city, and many still carry original three-tab shingles or wood shake that’s long past its service life. Tile roofs are common on newer subdivisions like those east of 10th Avenue. We inspect all of it and give you a report you can act on, not a sales pitch dressed up as an inspection.
Travis Oakley leads our team, and he’s built his reputation on one thing: the price goes on paper before any work begins, and it stays there. No door-knocking tactics. No surprise line items after the fact. Hanford homeowners who’ve been burned by roofers who shift their price at the door understand why that matters.
Styles & brands we work with
Roof Inspection Companies in Hanford
Roof Inspection Companies in Hanford come in a few forms: franchise operations, one-truck independents, and full-service roofing firms. What separates us is process and paperwork. A proper inspection on a Hanford home means checking shingle condition, flashing at penetrations, drip edge integrity, underlayment condition, decking soundness, and attic ventilation. We document it all in a written report with photos, and we provide a line-item quote the same day.
A standard residential inspection here runs $180 to $340. Homes with steep pitches, extensive tile, or multiple outbuildings land on the higher end. The inspection includes a moisture reading in the attic and a written summary you can keep on file for insurance or resale.
Residential Flat-Site Inspections
Most Hanford ranch-style homes have simple ladder access from the driveway or side yard. We stage equipment tight to the house so neighbors can still pull out of their garage, and we never park a truck across a shared driveway. On lots like those around Hidden Valley Park, where homes sit close together, that discipline matters more than most roofers admit.
Post-Storm and Pre-Listing Checkups
Hanford’s winter storms come fast and hard, and the first heavy rain of the season exposes every weak point on a roof. We schedule walk-and-document inspections after storm events and before home listings. If a realtor or buyer needs a fast report, we turn it around within one business day.
Commercial Roof Inspection in Hanford
Commercial Roof Inspection in Hanford means something different than residential work: flat or low-slope membranes, HVAC penetrations, parapet walls, and drainage systems that carry real water volume during Hanford’s sudden downpours. We inspect TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofs on Hanford’s retail and office buildings, documenting seams, ponding zones, and flashing failures before they become interior leaks.
A commercial inspection in Hanford typically runs $350 to $550 depending on square footage and roof access height. We provide a written condition report with photos and a prioritized repair or replacement plan. Property managers get the same Garrison Standard as homeowners: written pricing before any work starts, and no upselling on the back of a report you paid for.
Flat-Roof and Membrane Surveys
Flat commercial roofs in Hanford take intense UV exposure most of the year and sudden water loading in the winter. We walk every seam and check the flashing around vents, drains, and curbs. If the membrane is blistered or cracked from years of Hanford sun, we tell you straight.
Lease-Term and Capital-Planning Reports
If you’re buying or leasing a commercial property in Hanford, a documented roof condition report protects you at the negotiating table. We deliver a plain-language summary with a lifed-cycle cost breakdown so you know what the next five and ten years will cost. No scare tactics, just numbers.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hanford
We inspect and work on roofs built with all the major manufacturer lines, including GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. For Hanford homeowners specifically, we often draw attention to Atlas and IKO shingles with their high-reflectivity and UV-resistant formulations that hold up better under the Valley’s relentless sun, and Tamko’s Heritage line for its granule retention on lower-slope ranch roofs. Because we stock local parts in the Central Valley, we can start repairs faster after the inspection report clears.

AfterCommon Roof Inspection Problems We See in Hanford Homes
- Multiple patch layers over failing decking: Older homes north of downtown, especially around Hidden Valley Park, often have original 1960s composition shingles that have been patched two or three times without addressing the decking underneath. Moisture trapped between layers rots the plywood and leads to soft spots that only show themselves during a leak.
- UV-damaged drip edge and underlayment at the eaves: Hanford’s heat degrades asphalt underlayment faster than most people expect. Drip edge that’s pulled or rusted allows wind-driven water into the fascia during winter storms, and the damage spreads before you see a stain on the ceiling.
- Curling and granule loss on south-facing slopes: The south and west slopes on Hanford homes bake all summer. Shingles there curl at the edges and shed granules into the gutters. It’s the first sign the roof is nearing the end, and it appears years earlier than on shaded slopes.
- Flashings around plumbing penetrations and chimneys: Older Hanford tract homes have cast-iron plumbing stacks and brick chimneys that heave slightly with soil movement. Failed flashing at those penetrations lets water track sideways along rafters, so the leak shows up far from the source.

FAQs About Roof Inspection in Hanford
We stage all ladders and equipment in your driveway or on your side yard, never on a neighbor’s property. On narrow lots, we set ladders at the front or rear of the house rather than the side, and we confirm access points before the inspection starts. If your roof can’t be safely accessed without crossing a property line, we tell you upfront and we never improvise.
Call (559) 785-2160 and we’ll walk through access on your specific lot before we schedule.
No, a visual inspection does not require a permit in Hanford. Inspections are non-invasive and don’t alter the structure. However, if the inspection leads to a re-roof or a substantial repair, the City of Hanford will require permits, and our team pulls all permits and passes all inspections before the job closes. We handle the paperwork from start to finish.
Look for curling shingle edges, patches that look shiny or smooth where granules have washed off, and granules collecting in gutters and downspouts. On Hanford’s south-facing slopes, you may also see hairline cracks in shingles and discolored or brittle ridge caps. Any of these means an inspection is worth the $180 to $340; a leak later costs far more.
Yes, that’s a standard part of our inspection. California code allows a maximum of two shingle layers in most cases, but older Hanford homes often have three or more applied over the decades. Our inspector documents the layer count and checks the decking underneath for rot and deflection. If we find the deck is compromised, you’ll know before we quote a re-roof, not after the tear-off starts.
We check every penetration: plumbing stacks, furnace vents, attic vents, and chimney flashing. On older Hanford tract homes, cracked boots and failed mastic around these penetrations are the most common source of roof leaks. We document what’s failing, take photos, and give you a written line-item quote for exactly what needs repair. Call (559) 785-2160 for a free estimate; the inspection leads to a plan, and the plan leads to a fixed roof.
