TYPES OF REPAIRS:

Chimney Repairs

Many times chimney flashings are not changed during the original roof replacement and will begin to leak before your new roof is changed again. We repair leaking or rusty chimney flashing, chimney pans and chimney caps.

Leaking Skylights Repairs

Even skylights that have been installed properly will leak over time. They can develop leaks along the glass or flashing and will need to be replaced. When you notice a leaking skylight, it is best to replace it soon before structural damage occurs. We can help with this.

Flashing Repairs

It is common for flashing to rust over time and develop into a roof leak. Metal flashing can be found on the roof to wall intersections, around chimney, dormer, valleys and other roof penetrations. We can perform all types of metal Flashing repairs.

Pipe Boot Repairs

Your neighborhood squirrels love these and will sometimes chew a hole through them to sharpen their teeth. Unfortunately, this will cause your roof to begin leaking. We can repair or replace that pipe boot for you.

Roof Vent Repairs

Whether a vent was installed incorrectly or has simply developed a crack over time, leaks are the implication. In the case of a power vent that has stopped working, the implication may not be a leak but rather an overheated attic which will decrease the life span of your current roof. Vents or Power Vents are an easy fix and if replaced quickly can prevent further complications.

Turbine Vent Repairs

Over time these vents may cease and stop spinning. When they do, wind-driven rain will find its way into your home. We can replace the turbine vent for you and make sure it is working properly.

Soffit, Fascia, and Gutter Repairs

Wind will sometimes knock these out of place but in many cases, they can be repaired. Wood fascia and soffits can rot over time but if repaired promptly, major structural damage can be avoided.

Missing Shingles

Missing shingles are a common occurrence due to strong winds and the number of roofers using nails guns but if you notice missing shingles, we can help. We will replace those missing shingles, and ensure your roof looks good.

WHAT IF A REPAIR CANNOT BE PERFORMED?

One of the main reasons a repair cannot be performed is due to the age and deterioration of the roof. If repairs were to be performed, this would cause more harm than good.

In such cases, we can tarp the roof and provide you with an estimate for full roof replacement or help you with an insurance claim.
