Roof Repair

Common Roof Problems
Leaks: Often caused by damaged shingles, flashing, or underlayment.
Damaged Shingles: Cracked, curled, or missing shingles can expose the roof deck to moisture.
Flashing Failures: Improperly installed or deteriorated flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights can lead to leaks.
Ponding Water: Flat roofs may develop areas where water accumulates, leading to deterioration.
Structural Damage: Sagging or uneven roof planes may indicate underlying structural issues.

Roof Repair Process
Inspection and Assessment
Begin with a thorough inspection to identify the extent and source of damage. Look for signs of leaks, damaged shingles, or structural issues.
Removing Damaged Materials
Carefully remove compromised shingles, tiles, or flashing. For shingle roofs, this involves lifting the damaged shingle and removing the nails.
Inspecting the Underlayment
After removing surface materials, inspect the underlayment for water damage or deterioration. Replace any compromised sections to ensure a solid foundation.
Replacing Materials
Install new shingles, tiles, or flashing that match the existing roofing materials. Ensure proper alignment and secure them with appropriate fasteners.
Sealing and Finishing
Apply roofing sealant to exposed nails and seams to prevent water infiltration. Ensure all components are securely fastened and the repaired area is watertight.
