Few buyers are aware of how important it is to make sure the roof on the home they are purchasing is free from defects and storm damage.  After all, from the ground a roof is just...well a roof!  Does anyone really pay attention to their roof unless they begin having leaks or issues?  If a roof has visible damage, a home inspector will usually note these items in their report.  If the damage is minor, it may be possible to repair the roof by simply replacing the damaged shingles.  If the roof is fairly new and the same like kind and quality shingles are available, the repair may be completed and be barely noticeable.   But a roof can be much more complex than many home buyers are aware of.  The Atlas Chalet shingle was a very popular shingle that was used extensively in both new constru... 01/27/2015
