First, if safe to do so, contain any interior water with buckets and try to locate the general area of the leak. Then, call a professional roofer like Marchese Roofing immediately. In Freehold, post-storm leaks often indicate compromised shingles, flashing, or underlayment. Prompt inspection is crucial because trapped moisture can quickly lead to roof deck rot and mold. We offer emergency assessments to find the source and provide a temporary fix to prevent further damage until a permanent repair can be scheduled.

During a roof inspection, we look for signs like soft or spongy spots when walking the roof, sagging areas, or visible water stains on the underside of the decking from the attic. If rot is suspected, we will safely remove a small section of shingles and underlayment to inspect the wood decking directly. The repair involves removing all affected decking, replacing it with new, code-compliant plywood or OSB, and then reinstalling underlayment and shingles to seamlessly match your existing roof, ensuring structural integrity is restored.

Properly functioning gutters and downspouts are your roof's first defense against water damage in Freehold. When gutters are clogged or damaged, water overflows and runs down the side of your house or pools against the roof edge and fascia. This constant moisture exposure can seep under shingles and saturate the roof deck, especially at the eaves, leading to rot. Our gutter services include cleaning, repair, and installation of systems that effectively channel water away from your home, a critical step in preserving your roof's structure and preventing leaks.
