A-Z General Builder | Roofing Services in Wellesley, MA 02481

Our professional roof inspections identify early signs of shingle curling and algae growth, common issues in Wellesley's climate. Catching these problems early allows for targeted repairs, such as replacing damaged shingles or applying algae-resistant treatments, which can prevent more extensive water damage and extend your roof's lifespan, saving you money on a premature full replacement.

Not necessarily. While algae stains are unsightly, they often don't structurally compromise the roof immediately. We typically start with a professional cleaning and may recommend installing zinc or copper strips near the ridge to inhibit future growth. A full replacement is usually only needed if the underlying decking has sustained moisture damage, which we can assess during a detailed inspection.

Absolutely. Properly installed and maintained gutters are crucial for directing water away from your roof edge and your home's foundation. This prevents water from backing up under shingles (which can worsen curling) and from saturating the soil around your foundation, helping to avoid costly foundation repair or replacement down the line. We ensure gutters are correctly sized and pitched for your home.
