Frequently Asked Questions
How can a roof inspection from Erie Home identify granule loss or flashing corrosion common in Champaign?
Our Champaign roof inspections are thorough and tailored to spot early signs of local issues. We check gutters for excessive granules, examine shingle surfaces for bald spots, and meticulously inspect all flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys for corrosion or separation. Catching these problems early with an inspection allows for simpler, more affordable repairs before they lead to leaks or structural damage.
When is a roof replacement necessary versus a reroofing for homes in Champaign dealing with granule loss?
This depends on the extent of the damage. For moderate granule loss on a single layer of structurally sound decking, a reroof (adding a new layer) can be a cost-effective option. However, in Champaign, where repeated freeze-thaw cycles can worsen underlying issues, we often recommend a full replacement if there's significant granule loss, multiple layers, or any decking rot. A replacement gives us the opportunity to install modern, durable underlayment and flashing to better resist future corrosion.
What features do you include in a new roof installation to prevent the flashing corrosion we see in this area?
For new installations in Champaign, we proactively combat corrosion by using premium, rust-resistant materials like aluminum or galvanized steel for all flashing. We ensure precise, watertight sealing at every penetration and joint. Our installation process includes integrating the flashing properly with the new underlayment and shingles to create a unified barrier, significantly reducing the risk of the moisture intrusion that leads to corrosion.
