Frequently Asked Questions

My skylight is leaking during heavy rain in Billings. Is this a common problem and how does MJB Trades fix it?

Yes, skylight leaks are a frequent issue for Billings homes due to our temperature extremes and hail storms, which can degrade seals and flashing. MJB Trades begins with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—often failed sealant, a cracked lens, or compromised step flashing. We then perform precise repairs, which may include resealing with premium, weather-resistant compounds, replacing the flashing with corrosion-resistant metal, or recommending a full skylight replacement if necessary, ensuring a watertight seal that stands up to local conditions.

What causes roof flashing to separate or fail on homes in the Billings area, and what is your repair process?

In Billings, roof flashing commonly fails due to thermal expansion and contraction from our hot summers and cold winters, along with wind uplift and hail impact. This can pull nails loose or crack the metal. MJB Trades' repair process involves carefully removing the damaged section, inspecting the underlying roof deck for water damage, and installing new, code-compliant flashing that's properly integrated with your shingles and sealed. We use high-grade materials and secure fastening methods designed to accommodate movement, providing a durable fix that prevents future separation and leaks.

As a general contractor, can MJB Trades handle the interior damage from a roof leak, or just the roof repair?

Absolutely. As a full-service general contractor serving Billings, we provide comprehensive solutions. After we repair the roof leak at its source—whether it's skylight or flashing-related—our team can also manage the resulting interior damage. This includes water extraction, drying, mold mitigation, and repairing affected drywall, insulation, or ceilings. Handling both the exterior cause and interior repairs ensures the job is done correctly from start to finish, saving you time and coordinating multiple trades, so you have a single, reliable point of contact.
