Inspection Flags

Common Scope Items Flagged During Greenwood Village Inspections

Ventilation Corrections

Many pre-1990 Greenwood Village homes don't meet current intake and exhaust ratios. When a roof is replaced, ventilation must comply with current code, which can add scope and cost not reflected in initial estimates.

Decking Replacement

If decking is deteriorated, improperly fastened, or fails inspection, it must be replaced. This is one of the most common reasons final project costs differ from initial estimates.

Inspection Sequencing

Projects may require mid-roof and final inspections. Failed inspections must be corrected before permit closeout, which affects scheduling and total timeline.

Hail Claims

Insurance Claims in Greenwood Village

Hail is one of the most common reasons roofs get replaced along the Front Range. If your home has been hit, or you think it has, a proper damage assessment is the first step. Most homeowners don't realize that carrier scopes often miss code-required items like ventilation corrections, decking replacement, or drip edge upgrades.

How Pak Exteriors Supports the Process

We review your carrier's scope of loss line by line and flag anything that doesn't meet current building code. If items are missing, we document them with photos and measurements and provide the required manufacturer specifications or code requirements so you have clear information to bring back to your adjuster. You stay in control of your claim.

Don't Take Our Word For It

Eric and his outstanding team @ Pak Roof did a great job helping us resolve our gutter flashing and heat tape problems! Eric put us on his schedule promptly and identified the issues, then, working with the best resources, got the project done in short order. Everyone involved was professional, timely and easy to communicate with. They took and shared photos, and after the installation, even gave us an in-person tutorial of how the much improved heat-tape and thermostat works. Hard to imagine these days, but doing business with them was actually a pleasure!
Eric at Pakroofs stepped in and pulled me out of a frustrating situation I found myself in an untrustworthy public adjuster firm. From our first conversation, he brought clarity, professionalism, and a genuine willingness to help. His roofing team was nothing short of outstanding—true professionals who completed the entire roofing job in just one day, with minimal disruption and impressive attention to detail. What stood out to me most was the way Pakroofs handled every part of the process: they were responsive, reliable, and communicated clearly about potential challenges.
Tyler was super easy to work with and helped us understand our options when it came to replacing our roof following hail damage. He worked closely with our insurance to ensure everything was handled properly. He also helped with key upgrades like class 4 shingles and proper roof venting to help keep our upstairs cooler in the summer!
