Instead of answering basic questions about the process and pricing, he came across as impatient and disrespectful, which made the entire interaction frustrating and uncomfortable. A consultation is supposed to be helpful and build trust, this did the exact opposite.
Based on this experience, I would not recommend this company. I suggest looking elsewhere if you expect professionalism and basic customer service.
I definitely recommend JA Edwards.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a roof inspection cost in Jacksonville?
Inspection pricing depends on roof size, roof type (shingle, tile, metal, flat), pitch, and what you need documented. Many homeowners start with a free inspection when they’re dealing with a leak, storm concerns, or evaluating repair vs replacement. If you need a detailed written report for a specific purpose, we can outline the scope and cost upfront.
Do you offer free roof inspections?
Yes. We offer free roof inspections to homeowners across Florida. Our inspections are thorough, honest, and designed to help you understand the real condition of your roof before making any decision.
How long does a roof inspection take?
Most roof inspections take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on roof complexity and accessibility. Larger homes, tile systems, steep pitches, or properties that need extensive photo documentation can take longer.
What does a roof inspection include?
A proper inspection looks beyond “missing shingles.” We typically check:
-
Shingles/tiles/metal panels and fasteners
-
Flashing (chimneys, walls, skylights, valleys)
-
Roof penetrations (vents, pipe boots, exhausts)
-
Underlayment warning signs (where visible)
-
Soft spots/decking concerns (from attic/accessible areas when applicable)
-
Gutters/drainage issues that cause backups
-
Ventilation indicators that affect roof life
You should expect photos and clear notes on what matters now vs later.
Do I need a roof inspection after a storm in Jacksonville?
If you had strong wind, flying debris, or heavy rain and you’re noticing leaks, stains, lifted shingles, or granules in gutters, an inspection is smart. Storm damage is not always obvious from the ground, and early documentation helps you avoid bigger issues later.
Can you inspect my roof for an insurance claim?
Yes. We can document visible damage with photos and explain what we found. Keep in mind: the insurance carrier decides coverage, but good documentation and clear findings help you understand whether a claim makes sense before you waste time.
Do you inspect tile roofs in Jacksonville?
Yes. Tile roofs can look fine on the surface while underlayment and flashing are failing underneath. A tile inspection focuses on cracked/slipped tiles, fastening patterns, valley conditions, transitions, and the warning signs that typically show up before leaks.
Will a roof inspection tell me if I need repair or replacement?
That’s one of the main reasons to do it. A good inspection should separate:
-
isolated issues that can be repaired correctly, from
-
system-wide wear where replacement makes more financial sense.
You should walk away with a clear recommendation and the “why.”
