KT Contracting | Roofing Services in Gouverneur, NY 13642

In Gouverneur, shingle curling is often caused by moisture trapped in the attic from inadequate ventilation or insulation, combined with our freeze-thaw cycles. At KT Contracting, we first diagnose the root cause by inspecting your attic ventilation and insulation. Our fix typically involves repairing or improving the ventilation system to allow moisture to escape and then replacing the damaged shingles with high-quality, weather-resistant materials suited for our Northern NY climate, preventing the issue from recurring.

Absolutely. In our area, insufficient or compromised roof insulation is a primary culprit for ice dams in winter and moisture buildup in attics year-round. This moisture can lead to mold, wood rot in your roof decking, and even damage to your home's interior ceilings and walls. KT Contracting's roofing experts assess your current insulation, recommend upgrades like proper air sealing and higher R-value materials, and ensure it's correctly installed to protect your home's structure and your family's health.

Many Gouverneur homes have masonry chimneys that can deteriorate and cause leaks where they meet the roof. Our unique advantage is handling both trades in-house. We'll repair or repoint the chimney bricks with durable mortar, then expertly flash and seal the roof-chimney intersection to prevent water intrusion. This coordinated approach by one trusted team ensures a seamless, watertight repair, saves you time coordinating multiple contractors, and provides a single point of accountability for the entire job.
