Nacogdoches Roof Pros provides professional roof inspections in Nacogdoches, TX for residential and commercial properties across Deep East Texas. Our inspection is mostly a wood inspection. Anybody can photograph shingles. What decides the next ten years of a Deep East Texas roof is the condition of the rafter tails, the fascia and the last three feet of decking above them.
So we bring an awl. Rafter tails get probed from a ladder along the whole eave run, at the corners first, because that is where two slopes dump into one downspout. Sound wood stops the point cold. Wood that takes the awl to the handle is gone whether or not it looks painted, and coil-wrapped fascia hides either condition perfectly. That is exactly why the probe is not optional.
We sound the deck edge, look for shelter tubes running up the fascia or out of the soffit return, and check whether the soffit vents are open or have been wrapped shut in aluminum by a previous crew. Blocked intake is the commonest thing we find on a house that was re-roofed five years ago. It costs almost nothing to correct while the ladder is already up.
In the attic the eave end of the sheathing gets read for staining, the top plate for insulation that has been packed hard against it, and the exposed nail points for rust. Shiners that are wet in the morning tell you the attic is carrying more water than it is moving out. Rusted nail points date that condition better than any meter reading.
The covering gets its share of attention too: sealant bond along the exposed edges, pipe boots at the collar, valley cut and metal, step flashing at every sidewall, and counterflashing where masonry meets the plane. We note what is failing, what is aging normally, and what somebody already tried to fix with a tube of sealant. The last category is usually the most informative one on the report.
You get a written report with photographs, a rough remaining life for the covering, and a short list ordered by what will cost the most if it waits. Buying a house in Nacogdoches or Lufkin, or renting one out near the university, that list is the negotiation. We charge a flat fee for the inspection, and we do not tie the price of it to whether you hire us for the work afterward.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — back-primed fascia board sealed on all six faces including the cut ends, rafter tail ends cut back to sound wood and sistered, hidden gutter hangers screwed through the trough into solid sub-fascia, vented soffit panel carrying a published net free area figure, hemmed eave drip edge run under the first course of underlayment, awl-probe soundings taken along the full length of the eave — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Nacogdoches and nearby communities including Lufkin, Crockett, Center, Hudson.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof inspections
The difference between roof inspections that lasts and roof inspections that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with back-primed fascia board sealed on all six faces including the cut ends, rafter tail ends cut back to sound wood and sistered, hidden gutter hangers screwed through the trough into solid sub-fascia, vented soffit panel carrying a published net free area figure, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Nacogdoches job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Deep East Texas means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Nacogdoches Chooses Nacogdoches Roof Pros
- ✓We open the eave before we quote. Every proposal carries a per-foot rate for fascia and rafter-tail repair with a written cap, so the wood is never a surprise.
- ✓We will not wrap aluminum coil over a fascia board we have not probed, which happens to be the most profitable single thing a roofer can sell in this county.
- ✓Moisture scan and a core cut before any coating or recover. If the deck reads wet we tear off, explain why, and give you the sample to look at.
- ✓Maintenance and storm damage go onto separate documents, so a claim file never mixes five years of decay with fifteen minutes of wind and loses both.
