Quality Roof Repair Experts

Your roof is your first defense against the elements: heat, rain, snow, wind, cold. It protects everything you have inside the home, and along with the foundation, keeps the whole structure together.

A good roof increases the value of a home and makes it aesthetically appealing. Its state also tells of how well-kept the home is.

So to preserve the whole house, roof damage should be addressed as soon as they are detected.

The roof is not only made up of shingles as they are often what we can see from the outside. It also consists of:

1. the fascia - holds up the gutter and makes your roof look finished
2. the soffit - is located under the gutter where the roof meets the siding and provides ventilation
3. the flashing - the thin strip of metal that protects intersections from leaks
4. the drip edge - the metal installed at the end of the shingles to protect the fascia from water
5. valleys - sections of the roof where two slopes come together
6. the exhaust venting - allows overheated air and moisture to escape.

You need to know these so you can understand what your insurance or contractor is talking about, especially after an inspection. The knowledge may also help when you need to identify some things when you visit your local hardware store.

Proper roof care starts with trusted roofers. It's quality roof repair experts who know what your roof needs: be it simple patch-ups to full-on replacements.

Inspections are usually made when there is cause for repairs, such as when homeowners see evidence of leaks or storm damage.

But routine inspections should also be made periodically to address possible problems that will become a major issue in the future. And the older your roof is, the usual 5 years for every routine inspection should increase in frequency to every 3 or 2.

As summer and fall are the usual seasons for repairs, this is when roofers are at their busiest. However, the wisest of homeowners get inspections in-between storms. They know that their roofs might have suffered from the last onslaught of strong winds and would need reinforcement for the next.

A thorough inspection leads to an accurate diagnosis, further leading to honest estimates.

As quality roof repair experts, our inspectors know what to look for. Some of the areas we carefully inspect for leaks are joints around flashings such as chimneys, pipes, skylights, dormers, and roof valleys. We make sure the flashings themselves are going what they're supposed to do: veer water away from those joints.

We also look at the gutters, soffit, fascia, and bargeboards. We look for roof problems like missing or curling shingles, cracks, mold growth, critters, improper venting, and drooping roofs.

During the inspection, we will also look for workmanship errors that need to be corrected, especially if we weren't the ones who installed the roof.

Some of these damages weren't even caused by bad weather. Other work around the house, such as installation or maintenance of vents, hanging Christmas lights, or just a person walking on your roof might have caused those issues.

After that, you will get a detailed analysis and pictures of the findings after the inspection is done. We believe it's part of our job to educate all our clients about their roofing needs so they can be confident before the project starts.

You'll know what needs to be fixed, how long it would take, and how much it would cost you.

As thorough as we are with our inspections, we are even more meticulous when it comes to repairs.
