Roof Repair and Replacement in the greater Washington DC area

Picture
Your roof protects you from the elements. It can take a beating from hail, rain, wind, snow, sun, and falling debris. Below are warning signs that your roof may need repair and depending on the age and condition ultimately replacement. Get in touch with our Washington DC Roofing Company, Boyd Construction Co Inc, for your roofing repairs or replacement today!

Signs That Your Roof Needs Repair or Replacement
  • Curling shingles
    Shingles may start to curl from being worn thin over time. This decreases their defense against the elements.
  • Missing shingles
    Always check your roof after storms. Storms can cause shingles to blow off and tear. Also look for debris on your roof. It is best to have your roof repaired as soon as possible. One shingle tab missing may not seem like much, but it could be slowly letting water in your roof causing damage.
  • Buckling shingles
    Buckling can be caused by the roof underlayment not lying flat. Also, buckling can be caused by the movement of sheathing if it absorbs moisture. It is important to ventilate the attic space to eliminate excess moisture and to repair any buckled shingles right away.
  • Damaged or missing flashing
    Roofs often can leak at the flashing. Flashing can become loose and sealant can break down over time. Any gaps around chimneys or other roof penetrations need to be sealed immediately to avoid damage.
  • Roof leaks
    Leaks can often be hard to spot. If they remain unseen for a period of time leaks can cause further damage to rafters, sheathing, insulation, and the ceiling in your home. Signs to look for to determine if you have or have had a previous leak is rotten wood where your gutters attach to you home, mildew buildup, puddles or water in your attic. Without occasionally checking for leaks damage may have occurred.
