Granule loss is a common sign of aging shingles, often accelerated by our local weather. Those granules protect the asphalt from UV rays. When they're gone, your shingles become brittle and can crack or curl, leading to leaks. At A & R Roofing, we'll inspect the extent of the loss. If it's isolated, a repair might suffice. Widespread loss across the roof typically indicates it's time for a replacement to prevent water damage to your home's structure.

Damaged underlayment is a serious issue we frequently address in Jefferson. This water-resistant barrier is your home's last line of defense under the shingles. If we find it's compromised during an inspection—often from a persistent leak or improper installation—we don't just patch over it. We will carefully remove the affected shingles, replace the damaged underlayment section with a high-quality synthetic material, and re-install the shingles to restore a complete, watertight seal for your roof.

Our local inspection process is thorough and homeowner-focused. We start with a visual assessment of your roof's exterior, looking for missing granules, cracked shingles, and sagging areas. Then, we safely check your attic for signs of water intrusion, mold, or compromised decking—key indicators of underlayment failure. Finally, we review our findings with you on-site, provide a clear, written estimate, and explain all recommended repairs or replacement options tailored to your home's specific needs and our local climate.
