Montgomery Winslow | Roofing Services in Fort Myers, FL 33994

Our coastal salt air and high humidity accelerate corrosion on metal flashing, which is critical for sealing roof joints and preventing leaks. During a roof inspection, we carefully assess all flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys. Repair typically involves removing the corroded sections and installing new, high-quality flashing, often with added protective coatings to better withstand our local environment and prevent future problems.

Granule loss is very common here due to intense sun and storm activity. While some loss is normal over time, excessive loss can expose the asphalt underlayment to UV damage. A professional inspection by our team will determine the extent. Often, localized repairs or a re-roof (adding a new layer over the existing structure) can be a cost-effective solution. We'll only recommend a full replacement if the decking is compromised, ensuring you get the right fix for your Fort Myers home.

For longevity in our climate, material choice is key. We recommend impact-resistant shingles rated for high winds, metal roofing with superior corrosion-resistant coatings, or tile for its durability. Proper installation is just as crucial. We ensure enhanced attic ventilation to reduce heat buildup, secure flashing with premium sealants, and follow strict codes to protect against our heavy rains and tropical storms, giving you peace of mind for years to come.
