Frequently Asked Questions
What are the first signs of roof underlayment damage in Du Bois homes?
In our Du Bois climate, early signs often include interior water stains on ceilings or walls, a musty odor in the attic, or granules from shingles accumulating in gutters. Since underlayment is the secondary water barrier beneath shingles, damage can escalate quickly. We recommend a professional inspection, especially after severe weather, to catch and repair issues before they lead to major structural problems.
Why do my asphalt shingles keep curling, and how can it be fixed?
Shingle curling in our area is commonly caused by poor attic ventilation trapping heat and moisture, or by the natural aging of the roofing materials under UV exposure. A temporary fix isn't advisable, as curled shingles lose their protective ability. G P Mitchell Contracting will assess your roof's ventilation system and the extent of the damage to recommend targeted repairs or, if widespread, a replacement with modern, durable shingles better suited for Pennsylvania's conditions.
As a general contractor, can you handle both the roofing repair and any resulting interior damage?
Absolutely. A key advantage of working with us is our full-service capability. We'll first secure your roof to prevent further water intrusion, then our team can seamlessly repair any affected interior drywall, insulation, or painting. This integrated approach saves you time and the hassle of coordinating multiple contractors, ensuring a complete and efficient restoration for your Du Bois home.
