CRS Construction | Roofing Services in New Bedford, MA 02740

In New Bedford's humid climate, simple pressure washing can damage shingles and isn't a long-term fix. We recommend a professional, low-pressure soft wash with specialized cleaners that kill the algae at the root without harming your roof. For severe cases, we can assess if shingle degradation has occurred and recommend targeted repairs or a replacement with algae-resistant shingles, which are a smart investment for our area.

Flashing separation around chimneys, vents, and valleys is common here due to temperature swings, salt air, and wind-driven rain. A temporary sealant often fails. Our permanent repair involves removing the old flashing, inspecting the underlying deck for water damage (common in older New Bedford homes), and installing new, properly integrated flashing with high-grade sealants. For a comprehensive solution, we may recommend integrating the repair with a broader roof maintenance plan.

Absolutely. A key advantage of working with CRS Construction is our full-service capability. If a flashing leak has caused water damage to ceilings, walls, or insulation, our general contracting team can manage the entire project. We handle the roof repair, interior dry-out, mold prevention, and complete restoration—all coordinated under one roof. This saves New Bedford homeowners time and ensures the repair is seamless from the shingles down to your living space.
