Free roof inspections in Worcester County and MetroWest.
A visible problem, an aging roof or a property decision starts with a clearer understanding of the roof’s condition.
A practical first step for homeowners.
Roofing by Gamache provides free roof inspections for homeowners, property managers and real estate transactions in Worcester County and MetroWest. Based in Northborough, the team inspects visible roof conditions, discusses areas of concern and explains repair or replacement options. The same team handles the inspection, the estimate and the final check of the finished roof, so you are not starting over at each step. The initial visit helps define the scope of roofing work; it is not a promise that every concealed condition can be identified before materials are removed. To discuss the property and arrange the next step, request an inspection. Compare repair and replacement options after the inspection.
When an inspection is useful.
You have noticed a change
Missing shingles, a ceiling stain, loose flashing or repeated gutter overflow are reasons to ask what needs attention.
You are planning ahead
An older roof or an upcoming exterior project can make it useful to understand roof condition before choosing a schedule.
You are buying or selling
A roof concern during a real estate transaction may need a roofing-specific assessment. Share the deadline and any requested documentation first.
What should you tell us before the visit?
Share the property location, the concern that prompted the call, and when you first noticed it. Mention past leaks, patches, storm damage, ice dams and work around chimneys or vents. If you have photographs taken safely from the ground or inside the home, explain what they show.
For a purchase, sale or insurance request, tell us exactly what the third party needs before arranging the inspection. A roofing inspection is not automatically a whole-home inspection, engineering evaluation, warranty certification or lender-approved report. Confirm the required scope and format in advance.
What the findings help you decide.
Repair a specific area
A localized issue may support a targeted repair once the source and surrounding condition are understood.

Explore exterior servicesIs the initial roof inspection free?
Yes. Roofing by Gamache offers free inspections and estimates. Explain the property and purpose of the inspection when you contact us.
Can the inspection reveal every hidden problem?
No. The inspection is limited by access and what is visible. Decking and other concealed conditions may become clearer only after roofing materials are removed.
Do I have to replace the roof after an inspection?
An inspection helps you understand the condition and options. It does not commit you to a roof replacement.
Can you inspect a roof for a home purchase?
Yes, real estate transactions are within our inspection scope. Confirm the deadline and any report or certification requirements before scheduling.
