Scheduling periodic roof inspections is the best way to identify minor roof issues so they can be repaired before they become major. Inspections are also important in case an unexpected event damages your roof.
Felgemacher Roofing & Siding serves West Seneca, NY, and all of Erie County, NY, with licensed roofing inspections by experienced professionals. Our job is to understand what’s happening with the roof and advise you on the best way to address the problem.
Not All Roof Damage Is Obvious
When we think of a roof, we often think only of the beautiful shingles that make up the covering. But there are many parts below the shingles that can fail and cause big trouble if ignored.
During a roof inspection, we’ll check the shingles and look for signs that the roof’s structural components are damaged. It’s the hidden problems that often lead to big and expensive trouble.
Roof Inspection Targets
Here are some of the problems we regularly find in older and damaged roofs in West Seneca, NY.
- Shingle deterioration in patches or across the roof
- Algae and mold
- Rotting at the roof’s edges
- Areas of sagging and dipping, often so subtle that homeowners miss them
- Signs of leaks in the roof and the home
- Detached or missing flashing around skylights, vents, and the chimney
- Damage to the underlayment and roof decking
- Damage to the truss support system
Inspection Report
We’ll share our roof inspection report with you and explain exactly what we found. You’ll know how we propose to restore the roof and how long the work will take before we get started. You’ll also know how much the repair or replacement job will cost. If financing is required, we’ll set you up with GreenSky financing.
How Roofs Become Damaged
A well-built roof with quality materials will serve you for many years. But even the best roofs can suffer unexpected damage from:
- House fires and chimney fires
- Powerful windstorms
- Pounding hail
- Falling tree branches
- Minor water leaks that progress
When a roof passes the 15-year mark, you should expect to see some problems sooner or later. Roof damage can happen at any point in a roof’s life if cheap materials were used to build it and if the people who installed or repaired it weren’t experienced roofers.
