Geter Done - Detroit's Top-Rated Roofing Repair

In Detroit, the most frequent sign is a spongy or soft feeling when walking on the roof, often accompanied by visible sagging between the rafters inside your attic. This rot is typically caused by trapped moisture from leaks around old flashing or damaged shingles, which our wet springs and freezing winters accelerate. If you notice this, it's crucial to get an inspection quickly to prevent structural damage.

Chimney flashing fails often here due to the extreme temperature swings that cause the metal and masonry to expand and contract at different rates, breaking the seal. At Geter Done, we fix this by carefully removing the old flashing, repairing any underlying deck rot, and installing new, high-grade flashing with a proper counter-flashing system sealed with durable, flexible urethane caulk designed for Michigan's climate.

In most cases, we can surgically repair just the rotted section. We'll remove the damaged shingles and underlayment, cut out and replace the rotten decking with new plywood, and then seamlessly integrate new shingles with your existing roof. A full replacement is only necessary if the rot is widespread or the entire roof is near the end of its lifespan. We always provide a clear, honest assessment first.
