Aaron's Westside Roofing | Roofing Services in Des Moines, IA 50312

Common signs include water stains on your interior ceilings or walls that align with the roof's valley lines, visible moisture or drips in the attic after rain, and granules from your shingles accumulating in the gutters below the valley. Given our local freeze-thaw cycles, these leaks can worsen quickly, so prompt inspection and repair by a local expert like Aaron's Westside Roofing is crucial to prevent structural damage.

Flashing—the metal strips sealing joints around chimneys, vents, and skylights—often fails here due to extreme temperature swings, heavy wind, and ice dam pressure. These elements can loosen seals, cause metal to warp, and lead to cracks. Our repair process involves a thorough inspection, removal of compromised flashing, proper preparation of the substrate, and installation of new, high-grade flashing integrated with your existing roofing materials to ensure a watertight, durable seal for Iowa weather.

Absolutely. In many cases, a targeted valley repair is a cost-effective solution. We start by removing damaged shingles and the underlying leak source in the valley lining. We then install a new, waterproof valley system using industry-best materials like ice and water shield, followed by precision shingle reinstatement. We always provide a clear, honest assessment; if a full replacement is necessary for long-term integrity, we'll provide a transparent assessment. However, our goal is always to provide the most effective and cost-efficient solution for your Des Moines home.
