Frequently Asked Questions
Your Questions, Our Answers
What does a Barkley-Jensen roof inspection actually cover?
More than a surface scan. Our free inspections assess the visible shingle field, but also flashing around chimneys, skylights, and pipe boots, ridge and soffit ventilation, gutters and fascia, and any interior attic indicators of moisture intrusion or airflow problems. Many roof issues originate at transition points and penetrations rather than in the open field, and those are easy to miss without a thorough assessment. You’ll leave the inspection with a clear, specific understanding of your roof’s condition and what, if anything, needs to be done.
Can a new roof meaningfully affect my Chapel Hill home’s resale value?
Yes. Real estate data consistently shows that a new roof increases buyer confidence and reduces the negotiating leverage buyers use during inspection. In a market like Chapel Hill where home values are high and buyers are discerning, an aging or visibly worn roof is one of the first items flagged in inspection reports. A new roof installed by a certified contractor, complete with a transferable manufacturer warranty, is a documented upgrade that adds real value at the point of sale and can take a significant issue off the table entirely.
My Chapel Hill home was built in the 1950s or 1960s. What comes up during a roof replacement on an older home?
Mid-century homes in Chapel Hill’s established neighborhoods often have original board sheathing instead of plywood decking, ventilation systems that predate current building standards, and roof profiles that differ from modern construction. None of these are deal-breakers, but they need to be assessed and factored into the project scope before work begins. Barkley-Jensen inspects for all of it during the initial visit and gives you a complete, accurate picture of what the replacement involves so there are no surprises once the crew is on the roof.
What roofing options are most energy-efficient for a Chapel Hill home?
The biggest factors are shingle type and attic ventilation working together as a system. Reflective and cool-roof shingle options from GAF and CertainTeed are designed to reduce solar heat absorption, which lowers attic temperatures and takes load off your HVAC during Chapel Hill’s hot summers. A properly balanced ventilation system amplifies those gains significantly. For homeowners considering solar panels down the road, we can also discuss roofing systems designed with future solar mounting in mind. Barkley-Jensen will walk you through the options and what each one realistically means for your specific home.
