Alex Gutter & Roof | Roofing Services in San Jose, CA 95110

In our San Jose climate, a frequent cause of leaks is underlayment deterioration, often worsened by rain. The underlayment is a water-resistant barrier beneath your shingles. Over time, heat and moisture can break it down. We address this by thoroughly inspecting the roof deck during any repair or replacement. If the underlayment is compromised, we remove the affected shingles and install a new, high-quality underlayment before re-shingling, ensuring a watertight seal that protects your home from future leaks.

Absolutely. As a licensed contractor in both roofing and gutters, we efficiently coordinate projects that involve both systems. This integrated approach is often more practical and can be more cost-effective. For instance, when replacing a roof section, we can ensure the new gutters are perfectly aligned with the roof edge for optimal water drainage. Handling both services under one licensed contractor means streamlined scheduling, consistent quality, and a single point of contact for your project.

It depends on the condition and age of your system. We typically recommend repair for isolated issues like a single leak, a loose section, or a minor sag. Replacement becomes advisable when there's widespread rust, persistent leaks at multiple seams, sections pulling away from the fascia, or if the gutters are consistently overflowing despite being clean. During our inspection, we'll assess the material integrity, slope, and connections to give you a clear, honest recommendation on the most durable and cost-effective solution for your home.
