Fones & Sons Roofing | Roofing Services in East Galesburg, IL 61430

The high winds and temperature swings common in our area put constant stress on the ridge cap, which is the peak of your roof. At Fones & Sons, we don't just seal a crack; we assess the underlying structure, replace damaged materials with durable, code-compliant components, and secure the new ridge cap with techniques proven to withstand local weather, ensuring a long-lasting repair.

Absolutely. Moisture-compromised insulation in East Galesburg homes loses its R-value, leading to higher energy bills as your HVAC system works harder. More critically, it can lead to mold growth and wood rot in your roof decking and rafters. We identify the source of the moisture, remove the damaged insulation, ensure proper attic ventilation is in place, and install new, dry insulation to restore your home's thermal envelope and protect its structure.

After severe weather, check for missing, cracked, or lifted shingles along the ridge line. In your attic, look for dark stains on the wood, a musty smell, or any sagging in the insulation—these are signs of moisture. However, the best step is a professional inspection. Our local team at Fones & Sons knows exactly where these issues start and can spot early warning signs homeowners might miss, preventing minor concerns from becoming major repairs.
