For residential roofing contractors, there are multiple excellent reasons to conduct an attic-ventilation inspection — as long as it’s safe and practical to do so. Perhaps none of them carries more weight than this bottom-line perspective from Sam Rosario, president of Liberty Construction Inc. in Worcester, Mass.
“The value of inspecting an attic is critical to my business,” he said. “We will use it against all other contractors who don’t do an attic inspection. ‘Would you trust a doctor who doesn’t examine a patient yet recommends surgery?’ we ask homeowners.”
