What Roof Repair Includes
A real repair starts with a roof inspection, not a sales pitch. We walk the roof deck, check the attic underside, and photograph everything.
- Inspection: ridge, valley, flashing, pipe boot, skylight, and drip edge checked at close range.
- Diagnosis: separate active leaks from old stains; distinguish hail damage from sun-brittle shingle.
- Materials: match existing tile, asphalt shingle, or metal panel so the repair blends.
- Process: pry bar and roofing shovel to strip bad courses, then new underlayment and fasteners.
- Cleanup: dumpster on site, magnetic sweep for nails, debris hauled the same day.
Quality & Materials Standards
Materials must match the substrate, not the budget.
Concrete tile needs a sound underlayment beneath it — usually a synthetic underlayment or two layers of roofing felt.
Peel-and-stick ice-and-water shield belongs in valleys and around any penetration.
Work follows current building code: proper nailing pattern, corrosion-resistant fasteners, and correct flashing at every wall and chimney.
A tar-only patch is a temporary fix, never a repair.
For insurance claim work, we document hail damage and wind damage with dated photos, measurements, and a written scope of work.
That package supports your claim documentation and any supplement. You pay your deductible; depreciation and replacement cost get sorted with the adjuster.
