Inspections

The photographs must show the underlayment installed for each plane of the roof, deck nailing, and spacing (including a measuring device or ruler), roof deck nails used, drip edge and valley attachment, and shingles installed.
The second option will include two separate inspections. This is also the option that should be used if any of the decking is replaced.
- A Dry-In /In-Progress Inspection will include completed drip edge and felt and valleys. No more than 50% shingles may be installed at the time of this inspection.
