How Often Should Tile Roofs Be Inspected?

Tile roofs in Palm Beach County should be professionally inspected at least once per year. Due to Florida’s active hurricane season (June through November) and the frequency of tropical storms, Ranger Roofing recommends an additional inspection following any significant storm event. Regular inspections catch cracked or displaced tiles, flashing failures, and underlayment wear before they develop into leaks or require more extensive repairs.

Recommended Tile Roof Inspection Schedule

• Annual professional inspection — Every year, ideally in the spring before hurricane season begins on June 1

• Post-storm inspection — After any hurricane, tropical storm, or severe thunderstorm event

• Before buying or selling a home — Always include a tile roof inspection in the real estate due diligence process

• When the roof is 20-25 years old — The underlayment beneath tile roofs typically reaches end of life at this age and requires careful assessment
