Questions and Answers
What causes ice blockages in my roof gutters, and how can you fix them?
In Franklin, ice blockages (or ice dams) typically form when heat escapes from your attic, melting snow on the upper roof. This water then refreezes in the colder gutters, creating a dam that traps water behind it, which can seep under shingles. We address this by safely removing the ice dam and, crucially, inspecting and improving your attic insulation and ventilation to prevent future occurrences, protecting your roof from water damage.
My roof's flashing looks separated. Is this an urgent repair for my Franklin home?
Yes, flashing separation is a common issue here and should be addressed promptly. Flashing is the metal material that seals joints around chimneys, vents, and valleys. When it separates due to age, weather, or improper installation, it creates a direct path for water to enter your home's structure. We provide expert flashing repair or replacement, ensuring a watertight seal that stands up to our local freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rains.

Absolutely. As a full-service general contractor serving Franklin, we offer comprehensive solutions.
