Common Questions
Why are my roof shingles losing granules so quickly here in York?
In York, our climate—with its hot summers, cold winters, and occasional severe storms—can accelerate granule loss. This wear exposes the asphalt mat underneath, leading to faster deterioration and potential leaks. We combat this by installing premium, granular-heavy shingles designed for longevity in our specific conditions and ensuring proper attic ventilation to reduce heat-related shingle stress.
What's the most common cause of a skylight leak in our area, and how do you fix it?
The primary cause is failed or degraded flashing seals due to thermal expansion and contraction from our temperature swings, compounded by wind-driven rain. Our fix involves a meticulous process: we remove the old flashing, inspect and repair any underlying decking, and install new, ice-and-water shield backed flashing with meticulous sealing to create a watertight barrier that moves independently from the roof, preventing future leaks.
Can a new roof or skylight repair also help with my home's energy efficiency?
Absolutely. For roofs, we install reflective, cool-color shingles and optimize attic ventilation to reduce heat absorption, lowering cooling costs in summer. For skylights, we use energy-efficient, double-pane glass with proper sealing to prevent drafts in winter and heat gain in summer. Addressing these specific local issues not only stops leaks but can lead to noticeable savings on your energy bills year-round.
