Residential Roof Repair

Roof Inspection

One of the best steps you can take to keep your roof in good condition is to schedule a regular roof inspection. Additionally, it is important to always have a professional roofer inspect your home’s roof after a major weather event.

Not only are professional roofers trained to assess the damage, but they know what to look for. For the untrained eye, it can be hard to spot a minor dent or cluster of missing granules in a roof shingle.

One of the benefits of hiring a professional roof contractor is that they can look for damage on the surface of the roof and below it, ensuring you are inclusive of all damage in your insurance claim.

Storm Damage

If you have recently experienced severe weather in your area, it is important to check your roof as soon as you are able. Although hiring a professional to inspect the roof is ideal, some homeowners will at least conduct an initial check for damage.

Whether recent weather produced hail, high winds, torrential rain, or a mixture of all, your roof may have damage that warrants repair work. For instance, hail damage is hard to detect unless you know where and how to look.

Furthermore, while the damage might seem minimal, a few missing granules from a shingle can weaken the shingle’s ability to withstand the weather elements. When a shingle is missing granules, the underlying material can crack and weaken due to the sun’s harsh rays.

If damage like this is left as is, that weakness can lead to future leaks, water saturation, and it can even compromise your roof structure. In short, failing to repair a seemingly small problem can lead to something as significant as needing a complete roof replacement.

The bottom line is that whenever you see severe weather that impacts your community, you can expect to have roof damage. To find out more about how you can schedule an appointment, please call

Structural Damage

There are numerous indications that your home has structural damage. For instance, ill-fitting windows and doors, cracks in the walls and ceiling, and uneven floors can indicate that your home’s foundation has shifted or settled too much.

Additionally, a sagging or leaking roof can point to issues with the framing that supports it. If these issues are allowed to persist they will continue to progress and eventually cause enough damage that the home’s residents are placed at risk.

The cost of replacing or repairing a roof can be intimidating. However, roofing contractors often offer a variety of financing options for homeowners who need an emergency roof repair. Furthermore, there are some instances where your homeowner’s insurance policy will cover a complete roof replacement.
