Common signs include visible gaps or lifted shingles along the peak (ridge) of your roof, which can let in wind-driven rain. For decking rot, you might notice interior water stains on ceilings, a spongy feeling when walking on the roof, or missing granules in your gutters from deteriorating shingles. Given our local humidity, these issues can worsen quickly, so a professional inspection is recommended.

We start by removing the affected shingles and underlayment to fully expose the damaged decking. All rotted wood is cut out and replaced with new, pressure-treated plywood or OSB. We then ensure proper ventilation is in place to reduce future moisture buildup—a critical step for Andalusia's climate—before reinstalling high-quality underlayment and shingles with a complete seal.

Ridge caps are the first line of defense against strong winds common in our region. When they become loose, it compromises the entire roof's seal, allowing water intrusion that can lead to leaks, mold, and structural rot inside your attic. Our repair process involves removing the old caps, applying new roofing cement, and securely fastening new caps with longer, corrosion-resistant nails to provide a durable, weather-tight seal for Andalusia homes.
