J.R. Roofing and Construction | Roofing Services in Tyler, TX 75702

Yes, skylight leaks are a frequent problem here in Tyler due to our heavy rains and temperature shifts, which can compromise seals and flashings. We start with a detailed inspection to locate the exact source of the leak—often it's the flashing or sealant around the unit. Our repair involves removing the old, failed materials and installing new, weather-resistant flashing and sealants specifically designed for our climate. We ensure a watertight seal to prevent future leaks and protect your interior from water damage.

Your first step is safety: avoid climbing onto the damaged roof yourself. Document the damage with photos for insurance, and then give us a call. For Tyler-area storm damage, we prioritize emergency assessments and often provide same-day or next-day inspections. We'll secure any immediate hazards with temporary covers (tarping) to prevent water intrusion, then provide a clear, detailed estimate for the necessary repairs, whether it's replacing shattered shingles, fixing decking, or addressing gutter damage from fallen limbs.

For durability against Tyler's hailstorms and wind-blown debris, we often recommend impact-resistant asphalt shingles (Class 4 rated) or metal roofing. These materials offer superior resistance to punctures and wear. For areas around skylights and valleys, we use upgraded, reinforced flashing systems. The right material depends on your home's structure and budget; during our consultation, we'll explain the best local options to enhance your roof's longevity and performance, ensuring it's built to handle our specific East Texas weather.
