This homeowner may not have known anything needed attention on the roof until the water damage became apparent under the roof overhang above his patio. At a casual glance, the shingles appeared to be in good shape. This is another example of why a professional roof inspection is important. With over 25 years of experience, Baaron knows how to spot trouble areas that are often missed by homeowners and less experienced contractors. Roofs with a low pitch, combined with an accumulation of leaves, twigs, and other debris are usually a red flag, and need a professional inspection to determine the condition, and extent of any needed repairs.
Removing existing shingles and felt revealed evidence of a previous repair and the current damage. Unfortunately, the previous contractor did not implement the extra precautions that BK Roofing does in situations like this. |
All water damaged wood is identified and carefully removed. |
New, high quality roofing plywood is cut precisely to fit into position. |
Next, a special ice and water shield is applied over the repaired area as an extra protection measure in case fallen leaves and debris happen to trap water here again. |
More of the special ice and water shield is applied over the repaired area as an extra protection measure in case fallen leaves and debris happen to trap water here again. |
Finally, the repair is completed with layers of new felt paper and new shingles. |
After a short period of being exposed to the environment, the new shingles will blend in well with the earlier shingles. |
