BLM Roofing | Roofing Services in Norwich, VT 05055

Granule loss and those black algae streaks are common in our Vermont climate due to moisture and temperature swings. Granules protect your shingles, so losing them can shorten your roof's lifespan. We start with a thorough roof inspection to assess the damage. Often, a professional roof cleaning can address the algae, and for granule loss, we'll check the integrity of the shingles and underlying structure. We'll provide a clear, honest recommendation for repair or, if needed, a partial replacement to protect your home, using materials suited for our local weather.

Our inspection is a comprehensive check of your entire roofing system. My partner, with his 18+ years as a master roofer, looks beyond the shingles to examine the flashing, valleys, gutters, and underlying decking for issues like rust, leaks, or weak spots. This is crucial because a small visible leak often points to a larger problem. For Norwich homeowners, we pay special attention to flashings around chimneys and vents, as these are common failure points in our weather. The inspection allows us to give you a precise, factual estimate so there are no surprises, ensuring any repair we do is complete and lasting.

Absolutely. Preventive maintenance is key to extending your roof's life and avoiding major repairs. We offer professional gutter cleaning to prevent ice dams and water backup, which are big concerns here. Our roof cleaning service safely removes moss, algae, and debris that can degrade shingles. Regular inspections, especially after severe weather, help us catch small issues like cracked flashing or loose shingles early. Think of it as routine care for your home's most important shield—it's a smart investment that we make straightforward and affordable.
