"We found hidden fire damage at an inspection last week. There is a metal roof on top of an older damaged roof and the metal roof is 26 years old. Not sure why it was placed on top of the current roof with fire damage 26 years ago and what is holding it together? Call us for your home inspections!"

A fire-damaged roof can be a serious concern, but covering it with a metal roof can provide enhanced protection and durability. Metal roofs are fire-resistant, making them an excellent choice for preventing future fire damage. However, before installing a metal roof, it’s crucial to address any underlying roof repair needs. A thorough inspection and repair of the fire-damaged structure ensure that the new metal roof is properly installed and securely protects your home from further hazards.
