Since your roof usually isn’t a topic of conversation, we understand you might have questions about how to tackle roof projects:
How do I know if I need to repair my roof?
Knowing when your property needs roof repair or replacement can be difficult. WITH: Gold Standard’s experts are specially-trained to know what to look for when assessing a roof, as well as what type of service needs to be done.
When your roof is assessed, we look for all types of roof damage that might eventually lead to more significant damage.
How do I know what’s causing my roof to leak?
A leaky roof is a sure sign that your roof needs some attention.
90% of the time, roof leaks are the result of improper roof installation (improper nailing and/or shingle placement) or defective metal flashing.
Roof leaks can also be caused by any of a variety of factors:
- Hail impact (or other storm damage)
- Falling tree limbs
- Walking on the roof
- Cracked, sun-damaged shingles
- Age
Other roofing problems may be the result of a clogged gutter or misaligned flue pipes in the chimney.
Consequently, water can flow where it shouldn’t, and seep into the walls and interior of your property.
