Behmer Roofing & Sheet Metal - Flagstaff's Reliable Roofing Services

Ridge tile movement is a common Flagstaff issue due to our extreme freeze-thaw cycles and strong seasonal winds, which can break fasteners and loosen the mortar bedding. Behmer Roofing addresses this by first removing the compromised tiles, then properly re-bedding and mechanically fastening new tiles with corrosion-resistant hardware designed for our climate. This durable repair prevents the tiles from lifting and leaking, protecting the critical ridge line of your roof.

Flagstaff's intense sun and wide temperature swings cause foam roof coatings to expand and contract, leading to stress cracks and splits over time. A simple re-coat often fails. Behmer Roofing's expert repair involves thoroughly cleaning the area, cutting out and replacing any compromised foam substrate, and applying a high-grade, elastomeric coating with reinforced fabric at seams and transitions. This creates a flexible, monolithic membrane that can move with the roof, preventing future cracks and leaks.

Proactive maintenance is key. We recommend a professional inspection each spring and fall. Before winter, we check for loose shingles or tiles, ensure all flashings around chimneys and vents are sealed, and clear debris from valleys and gutters to prevent ice dams. Before summer, we inspect foam coatings for new cracks and ensure attic ventilation is adequate to reduce thermal stress. As your local roofing experts, Behmer can perform this seasonal check-up to catch small issues before they become major, climate-induced problems.
