Lessard Roofing | Roofing Services in Lewiston, ME 04240

Common signs in our area include sagging roof lines, spongy spots you can feel from the attic, and dark stains or mold on interior ceilings. Roof deck rot is prevalent in Lewiston due to our heavy snowfall and ice dams, which trap moisture against the roof sheathing. If you suspect rot, it's crucial to have it inspected promptly by a professional like Lessard Roofing. Left unaddressed, it compromises the structural integrity of your entire roof.

Yes, ridge cap damage should be addressed quickly, especially given our local wind patterns. The ridge cap is the sealing line along the peak of your roof, and any breach allows wind-driven rain and snowmelt to penetrate your attic, leading to leaks, mold, and insulation damage. A timely repair from a local roofer who understands our weather, like Lessard Roofing, can prevent much more extensive and costly interior water damage.

Our process starts with a detailed, local inspection to assess the full extent of damage from deck rot or a compromised ridge. For rot, we safely remove affected shingles and sheathing, replace the structural wood with treated materials, and re-shingle with a proper ice and water shield—a critical step for Maine homes. For ridge cap repairs, we ensure proper sealing and use high-wind rated fasteners. We always prioritize a repair that's built to withstand Lewiston's next storm season.
