The Mike McGilvary Roofing certification standard.
Most roofing companies show photos. We issue a signed, documented certification — a complete record of the inspection, the conditions found, the repairs performed, and the roof's remaining useful life. See exactly what that looks like below.

A 5-year certification is evidence, not a sales pitch.
A 5-Year Roof Certification & Remaining Useful Life Assessment is a professional document stating that — based on inspection findings and any required repairs — a roof is in serviceable condition for a defined period. It may be useful for insurance review, real estate transactions, 4-point inspections, property-management records, and homeowners who want to preserve their roof instead of replacing it unnecessarily.
From inspection to certification — documented at every step.
Inspection
A comprehensive visual inspection of the tile and flat roofing systems — tiles, underlayment, valleys, flashings, penetrations, and high-water-flow areas.
Documentation
Every finding photographed and recorded: existing condition, deficiencies, and remaining useful life — the evidence behind every recommendation.
Repairs & Restoration
Failed sections rebuilt, sheathing replaced, new underlayment installed, flashings repaired, tiles refastened — preservation, not wholesale replacement.
Certification
A signed certification documenting that the roof is structurally sound with an estimated remaining useful life exceeding five years.
A complete, signed documentation package.
Every certification engagement delivers the same concrete deliverables — the evidence you keep, whether or not the roof ultimately qualifies for certification.
