RESIDENTIAL ROOFING REPAIR

Common Roof Problems That Require Repair

Roof damage can occur for various reasons, from natural wear and tear to severe weather events. Here are some of the most common roofing issues that may require repair:

1. Leaks
   Leaks are one of the most common roofing problems. Over time, shingles may degrade, flashing may loosen, or seams may open up, allowing water to seep into your home. Even a small leak can cause significant damage to your home’s interior, leading to mold, mildew, and water damage. Regular inspections help identify leaks early before they cause widespread damage.
2. Damaged Shingles
   Shingles can become damaged or worn due to extreme weather conditions, heavy winds, or aging. Missing or cracked shingles leave your roof vulnerable to water infiltration and further damage. Timely repairs ensure your roof is fully protected and prevent further deterioration.
3. Cracked or Damaged Flashing
   Flashing is a metal material installed around chimneys, vents, and other roof features to prevent water from seeping underneath the shingles. Over time, flashing can become cracked or corroded, allowing water to leak into the underlying structure. Repairing or replacing damaged flashing is essential for maintaining a watertight seal.
4. Punctures or Holes
   Punctures or holes in your roof can occur from debris, fallen branches, or severe storms. These gaps allow water to enter and cause damage to the roof’s structure. Roof repairs should address these issues immediately to avoid costly repairs down the line.
