C & I Roofing | Roofing Services in Benton Harbor, MI 49022

In our area, roof valley leaks are often caused by ice dams in winter and heavy seasonal rain overwhelming compromised flashing or sealant. At C & I Roofing, we start with a thorough inspection to locate the exact point of failure. Our repair typically involves removing old, damaged materials, installing new ice and water shield underlayment for superior protection, and resecuring or replacing the valley flashing with durable, weather-resistant metals. This targeted approach stops the leak and fortifies the valley against future Michigan weather.

Signs of underlayment damage often appear inside your Benton Harbor home as water stains on ceilings or walls, especially after a storm. Outside, you might notice curling or buckling shingles. The underlayment is your roof's secondary water barrier; once it's compromised, water can seep directly into your roof deck and attic, leading to rot, mold, and structural issues. Our team carefully removes the affected shingles to assess and replace any torn, brittle, or saturated underlayment, ensuring your home's primary defense is fully restored.

After severe weather, we recommend a professional inspection to catch hidden damage. Our process is comprehensive and safety-focused. We'll conduct a ground-level assessment first, then safely examine your roof for missing or damaged shingles, compromised flashing around chimneys and vents, and debris in valleys and gutters. We pay special attention to areas prone to the ice and water damage common here. You'll receive a detailed, honest report with photos and clear recommendations, whether it's a minor repair or a discussion about more extensive options to protect your investment.
