Question Answers

Why is roof flashing corrosion such a common problem for Oakmont homes, and how can you fix it?

Oakmont's climate, with its humidity and freeze-thaw cycles, accelerates corrosion on metal flashings around chimneys, vents, and valleys. We fix this by carefully removing the corroded sections and installing new, high-quality flashing sealed with durable, waterproof materials. This precise repair stops leaks at their source and protects your home's interior from water damage.

What's the best way to deal with moss growth on my roof, and will cleaning it damage my shingles?

Moss thrives in our shaded, moist areas and can lift shingles, causing leaks. The best approach is professional, low-pressure cleaning with specialized solutions that kill the moss at the root. We then apply a zinc or copper strip treatment along the roof ridge to prevent regrowth. When done correctly by our team, this process safely removes the moss without harming your shingles' integrity.

Can you repair a leak caused by flashing or moss, or is a full roof replacement usually needed?

Often, leaks from these specific local issues can be repaired without a full replacement. We start with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a failed flashing seal or moss-induced shingle damage. In many cases, targeted repairs and preventative measures are sufficient to solve the problem and extend your roof's life, saving you significant cost. We'll always provide a clear, honest recommendation for what your roof truly needs.
