Homeowners in Shiloh, Georgia call Expert Roofers Columbus for free roof inspections. Shiloh is a rural Harris County town north of Columbus, close enough to our Columbus base that we are not a once-a-season crew passing through. Free inspections, written estimates, and real help with storm and insurance claims.
What we check during a Shiloh roof inspection
- Shingles: wear, curling, cracking, granule loss, missing areas.
- Flashing & penetrations: chimneys, valleys, pipe boots.
- Decking & attic: signs of water intrusion or soft spots.
- Gutters & drainage: so water actually leaves the roof.
- Storm & hail damage: the kind an insurance adjuster looks for.
What you get
A clear picture of your roof's condition with photos, and an honest recommendation: repair, replace, or simply keep an eye on it. We would rather educate you than throw out a number.
When to schedule an inspection
- After any major storm, especially hail or high wind, even if nothing looks wrong from the ground.
- Before buying or selling a home in Shiloh, so the roof is not a surprise at closing.
- Once a year on a roof older than about 15 years.
- When you see warning signs: ceiling stains, granules in the gutters, shingles in the yard or a musty attic.
How long it takes
A typical home inspection takes under an hour. We check the roof surface, flashing and penetrations, then the attic if you give us access, and we send you photos with a plain-English summary. There is no cost and no obligation either way.

Common questions
Is a roof inspection really free?
Yes. There is no charge for the inspection and no obligation to hire us afterward.
Do I need to be home for the inspection?
Not for the roof itself. If you want us to check the attic, someone needs to be there to let us in.
Will an inspection tell me if I have hail damage in Shiloh?
Yes. We look specifically for the bruising, granule loss and dented metal that adjusters look for, and photograph it so you can decide whether to file a claim.
Have tornadoes come through Shiloh?
Yes. NOAA records an EF1 tornado that touched down just southwest of Shiloh on Oct. 14, 2014, and an EF2 tornado that ended about two miles east-northeast of Shiloh on Nov. 16, 2011. A home in the 2014 path lost part of its roof.
