        "text": "A general roof inspection covers the entire roof structure, including shingles, flashing, decking, and overall condition, looking for leaks, wear, and structural integrity. A roof drainage assessment, while often part of a comprehensive inspection, specifically focuses on the functionality of the drainage system – gutters, downspouts, and the roof's ability to shed water. While both are important for roof health, a drainage assessment provides a specialized look at water management, which is key to preventing water damage and foundation issues. The focus helps determine if a full roof replacement or just drainage system repair is needed.",
