Problems with your Roof? Diagnose Them Here
Like the human body, a roof is made up of many different parts that need to act in concert to protect your home. Damage to any one of them could mean total failure of the roof far enough down the line. Keep an eye on these parts of your roof for potential problems:
Roof Deck Sheathing
Deck sheathing typically protects the rafters directly, and is the base that shingles are nailed to. Leaking in your home can mean damage or improperly-installed sheathing. Since sheathing is at the bottom, it also means all the other defenses have failed, too. You should call immediately.
Underlayment
The underlayment is the layer immediately above the sheathing but under the shingles. It stops your shingles from melting onto the sheathing. Like the shingles themselves, the underlayment has a limited lifespan.
Flashing
Flashings are installed around protrusions like chimneys, skylights and dorners. Flashings may sometimes be installed incorrectly as solid flashing instead of step flashing. We can fix that problem and many other flashing problems.
Ice and Water Shield
These shields are installed around roof perimeters, skylights and other areas where protruding happens. It’s vital that the shield is working properly because it protects some of the most vulnerable areas. Any leaking or airflow is a serious problem.
Ventilation
Your home may or may not need ventilation. Temperature extremes in your attic may be a sign of inadequate conditioning or ventilation. There are many ways we can help.
Roof Pitch
The pitch is the slope of your roof. A low-sloped roof will present challenges when it comes to drainage. In fact, many shingles may not be insured for roofs with a low slope. We have solutions that will let you keep the look and reduce the risk of water damage.
Shingles
Shingles are your first line of defense. There are several different kinds (see image) and plenty of different looks. Shingles deteriorate over time, and they can fail even when new if installed improperly or damaged. We have the solutions you need.
