Logan's Tuckpointing and Roofing in Chicago, IL 60647

Common signs include sagging roof sections, water stains on interior ceilings, and a spongy feel when walking on the roof. As a Chicago roofing expert, we first conduct a thorough inspection to assess the extent of the rot. Repair involves safely removing the damaged decking, addressing any underlying moisture issues, and installing new, structurally sound plywood or OSB sheathing before re-shingling. Prompt repair prevents further structural damage to your home.

It depends on the damage. In many Chicago homes, a leaking valley can often be repaired by our team through resealing or replacing the flashing and compromised shingles. However, if the leak has caused extensive rot to the decking or the valley itself is severely deteriorated, a section replacement might be necessary. We provide an honest assessment to recommend the most cost-effective and durable solution to stop the leak and protect your home.

Absolutely. Properly installed patios, walkways, and retaining walls by our masonry team are designed to direct water away from your home's foundation. In Chicago, where soil expansion and water runoff are concerns, this is crucial. We use correct grading, durable materials, and drainage techniques to ensure these hardscape elements not only enhance your property but also serve as a functional line of defense against water damage that can affect your foundation and basement.
