Given Brothers Roofing | Roofing Services in Avon, OH 44011

Avon's fluctuating temperatures cause roofing materials to expand and contract, which can loosen or lift the metal flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys. This creates gaps where water can seep in. We fix it by carefully removing the compromised flashing, repairing any underlying decking, and installing new, high-quality flashing sealed with durable, weather-resistant materials to ensure a tight, long-lasting seal against our local elements.

Prevention starts with proper attic insulation and ventilation to keep your roof's surface cold and even, minimizing snow melt. We recommend a professional evaluation of your attic's airflow and may suggest adding insulation, ridge vents, or soffit vents. For existing roofs, installing a waterproof ice and water shield membrane along the eaves is a critical line of defense we provide to protect against water backup if dams do form.

Repairing ice dam damage requires addressing both the symptom and the cause. First, we safely remove the ice dam. Then, we conduct a thorough inspection to assess water damage to shingles, decking, and interior structures like drywall and insulation. Our repair process includes replacing all compromised materials, fixing the root ventilation or insulation issue to prevent recurrence, and reinforcing the vulnerable eaves with ice and water shield protection for future seasons.
