A cracked truss in the attic is indicating structural movement, did a roof leak contribute?
Evidence of previous roof leak found at the edges, a cracked truss in the attic, ventilation leaks within the attic, structural movement and moisture damage at the soffit and eaves. The previous roof on the house had been leaking for quite some time, inviting termites into the garage area. The home has had termite treatment and no wet areas were found at the inspection.
A structural truss in the attic had a severe crack that should be evaluated for repair by an engineer. Because the attic has shifted, other areas of the roof my need repair that were not visible at the time of the inspection. Further inspection and repair is required at this roof.

Home Inspector Dan is a certified home inspector by the state of Arizona Board of Technical Registration, Termite Inspector by the Arizona Department of Agriculture, and is a Certified Professional Inspector @ the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors. Working alongside industry leaders and constant training has given me the education, resources, and experiences to help you buy your next home. Being employed with BPG Inspections has given me the opportunity to grow and learn from many inspectors across the country.
Home Inspector Dan performs comprehensive visual inspections involving a home’s major visible, structural and mechanical systems for homeowners and prospective buyers. The items examined in a typical home inspection include the plumbing, electrical, heating and air conditioning systems, foundation, roof, exterior and interior structures and built-in appliances. The visual inspection culminates in a set of comprehensive, computer generated reports describing the condition of the items and systems inspected. Your digital report with photos will be delivered within 24 hours or less.
According to the National Pest Management Association International, termites cost $5 billion a year in treatments and damage throughout the United States. All BPG inspectors in Arizona are licensed termite inspectors through the Department of Agriculture in Arizona.
I inspect pool and spas for defects, recommend upgrades, and test equipment. Remember, all underground plumbing needs a camera for inspection, a standard home inspection can not examine underground plumbing. I do provide a sewer camera option at my inspections. I have an infrared camera that I use as I see necessary. I can provide specific thermal inspections alongside a home inspection. I also carry a high quality moisture detector that can detect water 2 inches inside of a tile wall for finding those leaking shower walls or pans.
Please remember that my channel is education, I am not a professional tradesman! I am a professional inspector trained in finding defects, identifying safety issues, educating the homeowner and recommending a tradesman to help my client. The repairman will have the most accurate estimates and opinions as they know their industry far better than the typical home inspector.
