Fixes sized to the problem
Roof Repair in Brookhaven, GA
If your roof is sound apart from a specific problem, a well-done repair is our recommendation.
Repairs That Address the Actual Cause
Many roofs with a leak or a few missing shingles have years of service remaining. In those cases, replacing the whole roof would be unnecessary, and we say so. A good repair begins with accurate diagnosis. Water often travels along the deck or rafters before it appears on a ceiling, so the stain may be some distance from the opening. We follow it from inside the attic and across the roof surface until we locate where water is entering. Common culprits include cracked pipe collars, lifted or corroded flashing at walls, wind-damaged or missing shingles, and damaged vent housings. Once the cause is found, we correct it with the appropriate materials, replacing failed components rather than covering them with sealant, and we picture the completed repair so you can see the work. If the inspection reveals that the roof is deteriorating broadly, with damage on several slopes, brittle shingles or soft decking, we will explain that too, so you can decide whether a repair is still worthwhile or whether the money is better directed toward replacement.
