Questions and Answers

What's the most common cause of roof sagging in Wasilla homes, and how do you fix it?

In Wasilla, roof sagging is most often caused by the cumulative weight of heavy, wet snow exceeding the structure's design limits, which can weaken rafters or trusses. We fix this by first assessing the full extent of the damage. Our solution typically involves reinforcing the underlying roof structure with sistered rafters or new support beams to restore integrity, followed by a complete roof replacement if necessary. This ensures your roof can handle future Mat-Su Valley winters.

How can I tell if I have a condensation problem in my roof, and what's your approach to solving it?

Signs of roof condensation in our area include mold or mildew in the attic, water stains on the underside of roof sheathing, or damp insulation, especially during winter. Our approach starts with a detailed inspection to assess attic ventilation, insulation levels, and vapor barriers. We then design a corrective system, which often involves improving soffit and ridge venting, adding proper insulation, and sealing air leaks from the living space below to prevent warm, moist air from reaching the cold attic.

As a general contractor, do you handle the full repair process for these roofing issues?

Absolutely. As your general contractor, we manage the entire project from the initial inspection and diagnosis through to the final repair. This includes coordinating any necessary structural work by our carpentry crew, overseeing masonry or concrete repairs to chimneys or foundations if they're contributing to the problem, and executing the roofing work itself. You have one point of contact, ensuring the solution is comprehensive, efficient, and built to last.
