The Need For Roof Repair
Most roof repair needs are easy to spot. However, there are times when the issue is not apparent or is hidden. If there is damage or leak under the exterior portion of the roof, only an experienced roofer can find the problem area. If you notice the following signs, you should call our roofing repair experts for an inspection:
- Water stains on the walls or ceilings
- Clogged gutters
- Damaged and/or missing shingles
- Moss & mold
- Sagging roof
Types of Roofing Issues
Our roof repair experts can fix all types of issues. Some of the common roofing problems that we fix include the following:
- Leaks: Most roof leaks occur close to the flashing detail. Improper fastening is the most common reason for this issue. The lack of a proper moisture barrier can also cause leaks. Leaks can also occur around flashing, pipe collars, and chimneys.
- Curled Shingles: When the attic is poorly ventilated, it can cause air to get trapped in the roof decking. This can lead to moss growth and curling of the edges of shingles. We will replace any curled shingles to maintain your roof’s integrity.
- Loose Shingles: When the flashing is improperly fixed, it can cause seam and laps to open. When the seams are exposed, they can cause the shingles to loosen due to infiltration of wind and moisture.
- Ponding: If you have a flat roof that has started ponding regularly, we will find the source of the problem and prevent leaks or other damages.
- Fascia Wind Damage: Strong winds can detach the fascia from your building. Our roofing repair experts will locate the loose areas, assess the damage, and fix or replace it to provide a seamless appearance.
There are many other types of roofing problems that we regularly fix for residential and commercial properties in Fairfield County and the surrounding areas. This includes roofing issues due to previously poor workmanship, damaged venting, improper repairs, rotting wood, and collapsed roofs among others.
