Straight Answers on Transaction Timelines
REALTOR ROOF CERTIFICATIONS IN NORTHERN UTAH
A physical roof-walk inspection, a written certification and photo documentation, scheduled around your closing date, not ours.
The Roof Answer Your Transaction Is Waiting On
Somewhere in almost every home sale, the roof becomes a question. The general home inspection flags granule loss or a lifted shingle, the report recommends evaluation by a licensed roofing contractor, and now the buyer is nervous, the seller is defensive, and the agent is watching a closing date while trying to get a roofer to return a call. We built this service for exactly that moment.
A Legacy Roofing certification starts with a physical roof walk. We get on the roof, not just a ladder at the eave, and inspect the shingles or tile, the flashing, the penetrations, the valleys and the ventilation, with photos documenting what we find. What comes back to you is a written report that says clearly what the roofing system is, what condition it is in, and what serviceable life we expect from it under normal Utah conditions. When the roof is sound, the certification gives the buyer and their lender the confidence to proceed. When it is not, you get a line-item repair bid that turns a vague inspection comment into a concrete number both sides can negotiate with.
The part agents value most is that we play it straight. A certification is only useful if it is credible, and a roofing company that inflates findings to manufacture replacement jobs burns the very agents who refer it. Our inspectors document what is actually there. Sound roofs get certified as sound. Roofs that need three hundred dollars of flashing work get a bid for three hundred dollars of flashing work, not a replacement pitch. And when a roof genuinely is at the end of its life, we say so plainly, with photos, so nobody buys a surprise.
We schedule around transactions, because a certification that arrives after the deadline in the purchase contract is worthless. Tell us the date the addendum or appraisal requires, and that becomes the deadline we work to. Buyers, sellers and agents across Davis, Weber and Salt Lake counties use us for pre-listing inspections that surface issues before a buyer does, buyer-side evaluations after a home inspection flag, and the certifications lenders and insurers ask for on older roofs.

ROOF CERTIFICATION FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
Common questions about realtor roof certifications services answered by our expert contractors.
A written statement from a licensed roofing contractor, after a physical inspection, describing the roofing system, its current condition and the serviceable life we expect from it under normal conditions. Lenders, insurers and buyers use it to make decisions about a transaction with confidence.
Tell us the deadline in your contract and we will tell you immediately whether we can meet it, and we usually can. We schedule certifications around transaction timelines because that is the entire point of the service.
Often not. Home inspectors are generalists and they flag conservatively, which is their job. Many flags resolve into minor flashing or shingle repairs with a small line-item bid, and some resolve into nothing at all once someone actually walks the roof. When replacement genuinely is the answer, we document why with photos.
We certify what is true. If a roof needs work before it deserves certification, you get a line-item bid for exactly that work, and once the work is done we certify the result. What we will not do is paper over real problems or invent them, because the certification is only worth something if our name behind it means something.
Either side can order one. Sellers order pre-listing inspections to get ahead of buyer questions, buyers order evaluations after an inspection flag, and agents order them to keep a transaction moving. Call us and we will sort out logistics around your closing.
Yes. We are a full-service roofing contractor, so negotiated repairs can be scheduled on the same transaction timeline, documented with before-and-after photos for both sides. There is no obligation to use us for repairs, and the certification stands either way.
