From thorough inspections to complete repairs or replacements, we focus on solutions that fortify your roof against the specific weather challenges of the Connecticut coast, safeguarding your biggest investment.
Question Answers
Why is flashing rust such a common problem for Westbrook roofs, and how do you fix it?
The salty air and humidity along the Connecticut coast accelerate corrosion, especially on standard metal flashing. We address this by first removing all rusted material, then installing new, heavy-gauge galvanized or aluminum flashing. For maximum longevity in Westbrook, we often recommend and install copper flashing, which is highly resistant to salt corrosion and provides a superior, long-term solution to prevent leaks.
My chimney is leaking. Could it be the flashing, and what does a repair involve?
Absolutely. Chimney flashing is a critical seal where the roof meets the chimney, and it's a prime failure point during our heavy coastal rains. Our repair involves carefully removing the old, compromised flashing, inspecting the underlying roof deck and chimney masonry for water damage, then fabricating and installing new, custom-fit step and counter flashing. We seal it with high-grade, waterproof sealants to create a watertight barrier that withstands wind-driven rain.
What's included in your roof inspection to check for these specific flashing issues?
Our comprehensive inspection for Westbrook homes includes a detailed examination of all roof penetrations—especially at chimneys, vents, and skylights—where flashing is most vulnerable. We check for rust, pitting, loose seams, and failed sealant. We also inspect the adjacent shingles and interior attic spaces for signs of moisture. You'll receive a clear report with photos and honest recommendations, prioritizing any repairs needed to protect your home from our local weather patterns.
