Kole Roofing | Experienced Roofing Repair in Grand Rapids, MI

In Grand Rapids, the most common cause is ice damming. As snow melts and refreezes at the roof's edge, it creates a dam that traps water, which can then seep under shingles. This often highlights pre-existing issues like compromised flashing or worn sealants. A professional inspection from Kole Roofing can pinpoint the exact entry point and recommend a targeted repair.

Flashing—the metal strips around chimneys, vents, and valleys—can separate due to our area's freeze-thaw cycles, which cause expansion and contraction, or from improper initial installation. Kole Roofing fixes this by carefully removing the damaged section, preparing the surface, and installing new, high-quality flashing with proper seals to create a watertight barrier that can withstand local weather.

Immediately. Even a small leak can lead to significant interior damage like mold, rotted decking, and damaged insulation. In Grand Rapids, delaying repair until the next storm or winter can turn a simple fix into a major project. Contacting Kole Roofing for a prompt assessment helps prevent costly secondary damage to your Grand Rapids home.
