MS Construction | Masonry/Concrete & Roofing in New York, NY 10469

In New York, high winds, storms, and freeze-thaw cycles can loosen or crack the ridge cap—the sealing material along your roof's peak. Common signs include missing shingles at the ridge, visible cracks, or granules in your gutters. If ignored, it can lead to leaks and interior water damage. MS Construction specializes in inspecting and repairing ridge caps to restore your roof's critical first line of defense against our local weather.

Roof deck rot often stems from prolonged moisture trapped under damaged shingles or flashing, a frequent finding in our humid summers and wet winters. When we find soft or spongy decking (plywood/OSB), we safely remove the affected roofing materials, cut out and replace all rotted wood, and install new, treated decking. We then re-roof the section with proper underlayment and shingles, ensuring a seamless, watertight repair that addresses the root cause of the rot common in our humid climate.

Absolutely. Water from a compromised roof or ridge cap often damages the masonry of chimneys, leading to spalling bricks or deteriorated mortar. MS Construction's combined expertise in roofing and masonry allows us to first fix the roof leak at its source, then repair or rebuild the chimney structure. This integrated approach is crucial in New York to prevent recurring water issues and preserve your home's safety and curb appeal.
