Marshall TX Roof Pros provides professional roof inspections in Marshall, TX for residential and commercial properties across Harrison County and the Big Cypress basin. A great deal of what passes for an inspection around here is a sales visit with a ladder attached. Somebody photographs three lifted shingles, hands you a number and leaves. What you have then is a quote, not a condition report, and you cannot make a plan out of it.
Ours produces a document. Every masonry termination gets probed with a hooked scriber and the joint recession recorded in eighths of an inch, because that measurement is what decides whether flashing can be reset or whether the wall needs pointing first. We note the mortar we believe is in the wall, scratch-tested and classed against the ASTM C270 range, and we say plainly when we are inferring rather than certain.
The rest is unglamorous and it is the part that predicts trouble. Fastener pattern where we can see it, sealant strip bond by hand-lifting a tab on each slope, valley type and condition, boot collars, exhaust terminations, gutter fall and outlet condition, and the attic from inside with the lights off looking for daylight and for staining that has dried and returned. Dried and returned is the important distinction and photographs alone will not tell you.
Buyers and sellers get a different emphasis. On a pre-purchase inspection in Marshall the question is almost never whether the shingles have life left. It is what the chimney and the sidewall junctions will cost in the first three years, since that is the number that belongs in a negotiation and the number a general home inspector is not equipped to produce in a single afternoon.
Commercial buildings get a roof plan rather than a narrative. Drains, scuppers and overflows located and measured, parapet base condition walked and photographed at intervals, membrane seams probed, and any wall-hung equipment noted with what it is anchored into. On the downtown blocks we also record where the roof drains in relation to a party wall, because that decision affects a neighbor who has a say in it.
Inspection is free if you are calling about a specific problem. If you want the full written report with the joint measurements and the photograph set for a purchase or a budget, that is paid work, it is yours to keep, and you are welcome to hand it to a competitor. Charging for it is what keeps it honest.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — pointing mortar batched to ASTM C270 Type O at 350 psi, counterflashing let into a raked bed joint and pinned with lead wedges, hand-chiseled joint preparation in place of a cut-off wheel, a chimney cricket framed to shed water clear of the flue, cast concrete chimney crown with a drip overhang past the brick face, vapor-permeable pointing that lets a brick wall dry outward — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Marshall and nearby communities including Longview, Hallsville, Waskom, Scottsville.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof inspections
The difference between roof inspections that lasts and roof inspections that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with pointing mortar batched to ASTM C270 Type O at 350 psi, counterflashing let into a raked bed joint and pinned with lead wedges, hand-chiseled joint preparation in place of a cut-off wheel, a chimney cricket framed to shed water clear of the flue, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Marshall job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Harrison County and the Big Cypress basin means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Marshall Chooses Marshall TX Roof Pros
- ✓We survey every roof-to-brick termination with a probe before quoting, and you get those photographs whether or not the job is ours, because the joint depth is the number that decides the scope.
- ✓Pointing mortar is specified by ASTM C270 type and chosen to be weaker than the brick around it, so the joint stays the part that wears rather than the face of the wall.
- ✓Joint preparation is done with hand chisels wherever the joints are thin. A cut-off wheel is faster and it breaks brick edges and overcuts the vertical joints, which you then live with forever.
- ✓We turn down elastomeric coating work on masonry, every time it is asked for, and explain what trapping moisture behind a brick face actually does to the wall over a wet winter.

Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The roof inspections work we do in Marshall follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
