FAQs
What causes roof shingle granules to wash into my gutters in Des Moines?
Granule loss is a common sign of aging or storm-damaged shingles, especially after our local hailstorms and freeze-thaw cycles. These granules protect the asphalt from UV rays. When they wear off, your roof becomes more vulnerable. Aguila Roofing can inspect the extent of the loss—if it's isolated, a repair may suffice; if widespread, a replacement might be needed to prevent leaks and protect your home's value.
Why is the ridge cap on my roof often the first area to show damage?
The ridge cap runs along the peak of your roof, making it the most exposed to high winds, driving rain, and ice dams common in Des Moines winters. This constant exposure can cause cracks, curling, or loosening. Damaged ridge caps are a primary entry point for moisture. Our team specializes in repairing or replacing ridge caps with high-quality materials and proper sealing techniques to restore a critical line of defense for your entire roofing system.
Can you repair granule loss or ridge cap damage, or does my whole roof need replacing?
Not necessarily. A professional inspection from Aguila Roofing will determine the best course of action. For localized granule loss or a few damaged ridge caps, a targeted repair is often a cost-effective solution. However, if the damage is widespread or the roof is near the end of its lifespan, a full replacement may be the wiser long-term investment. We provide honest, transparent assessments to help Des Moines homeowners make the right choice for their home and budget.
