Murillo Construction and Painting | General Contractors & Roofing in Richmond, CA 94801

In Richmond, roof valley leaks are often caused by worn or damaged flashing, which is the metal strip that seals the joint where two roof slopes meet. Over time, weather and debris can compromise this seal. Our repair process involves a thorough inspection to confirm the source, removing old flashing, and installing new, properly sealed flashing with high-quality materials to ensure a long-lasting, watertight fix that protects your home.

We recommend a professional roof and attic inspection at least once every two years, and always after major storms. During an attic inspection in your Richmond home, we look for key signs of trouble: water stains, mold, or rot on the wood; daylight coming through the roof boards; and adequate ventilation. This helps us catch issues like aging materials or hidden leaks early, preventing costly damage to your home's structure and interior.

While regular gutter cleaning is essential, overflowing can also signal a bigger issue like improper pitch, undersized gutters, or damage. We'll first clean your gutters thoroughly. If problems persist, we may recommend a new gutter installation or addition. For many Richmond homes, upgrading to a larger, seamless gutter system with proper downspouts is the best long-term solution to handle our rainy season and protect your roof, siding, and foundation from water damage.
