Different roofing materials require specialized repair techniques to ensure long-term durability and protection. Whether your home has a shingle, tile, or flat roofing system, The Roof Guys have the expertise to address damage effectively and prevent further issues.
Asphalt shingle roofs are designed to provide durable protection, but over time, exposure to harsh weather conditions and natural aging can take a toll. Shingles may become brittle, crack, or curl, leaving your home vulnerable to leaks. Missing or damaged shingles expose the roof deck to moisture, increasing the risk of water infiltration and structural damage. Another common issue is flashing failure, where improperly sealed or deteriorated flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys allows water to seep beneath the shingles. If left unaddressed, these problems can escalate into significant roof leaks and interior damage. Our team can assess the condition of your shingles, replace damaged sections, and reinforce weak points to restore your roof’s integrity.
Tile and slate roofs are known for their longevity and aesthetic appeal, but they are not immune to damage. Over time, tiles can crack or become loose due to impacts from falling debris or harsh weather. Even a small crack in a tile can allow water to seep underneath, leading to moisture buildup and eventual leaks. The underlayment beneath the tiles, which serves as a waterproof barrier, can also deteriorate with age, making it less effective at preventing water penetration. Flashing around roof penetrations such as chimneys, skylights, and walls must be correctly installed and maintained, as improper flashing can lead to leaks even if the tiles themselves are intact. Our roofing specialists carefully inspect your tile roof, replace broken tiles, and ensure that the underlayment and flashing are secure to maintain optimal performance.
Flat and low-slope roofing systems require a different approach to repair due to their unique structure and drainage requirements.
Materials such as EPDM, TPO, or modified bitumen provide waterproofing, but can sustain damage from wear and tear over time. Punctures or tears in the membrane, often caused by falling branches, foot traffic, or aging materials, create openings for water to penetrate.
Standing water, also known as ponding, is another common issue for flat roofs. Prolonged exposure to pooled water can weaken the membrane and lead to leaks. Improperly sealed seams or deteriorating adhesives can result in gaps where moisture infiltrates the roof system.
The Roof Guys specialize in diagnosing and repairing flat roof problems, using high-quality materials and professional techniques to reinforce weak areas, patch damaged sections, and improve water drainage to extend the life of your roofing system.

Your roof’s age is a good indicator of whether it needs replacing. If it is more than 10 years old, you should consider making the upgrade.
Aside from age, there are many signs that a replacement is in order. From the inside, you can check your attic for sunlight leaks or wood rot, which are common signs of damage. If you have any water stains on your ceiling, you most likely have a roof leak.
Outside indicators include:
You may only need minor repairs for these issues, however, if you have multiple problems or concerns, it is most likely that you will need a complete roof repair.
Because gutters cover portions of the roof, they should be removed before the replacement process. Your contractor needs to be able to see any damage around the gutter area, especially since this is where the water pools during a storm.
People will often elect to replace the gutters when they replace the roof, but this is not a necessity in all cases. To replace the roof, workers will need to get under the gutters anyways, so it makes sense to remove that obstacle before the rest of the roof has been replaced. Plus, if the gutters are removed first, you will not risk having them damaged while the new roof is being installed.
The roof should be replaced before siding. It typically makes more sense to replace the roof first because it has a bigger impact on the rest of the house.
An ineffective roof can cause damage to all other areas of the home. From leaks in the ceiling to wood rot on the siding, old roofs create more problems than old siding. If you replace the roof first, you will ensure that it can protect any new siding that gets installed.
Plus, you will have taken a top-down approach to improving the efficiency and safety of your home. This ensures that your home is protected from the brunt of the elements while any other projects are happening.
