Yes, finding granules in your gutters is a common sign of asphalt shingle wear, especially in Tacoma's weather. Granules protect your roof from UV rays. Significant loss can shorten its lifespan. We recommend a professional roof inspection to assess the extent of the damage. Our team at Newbill can determine if targeted repairs or a full roof replacement is needed to prevent leaks and ensure your home stays protected.

Absolutely. Chimney flashing leaks are a frequent issue we address in Tacoma. The flashing is the metal seal where the chimney meets the roof, and it can corrode or come loose over time. Our repair process involves carefully removing the old flashing, inspecting the underlying roof deck for water damage, and installing new, properly sealed flashing. This targeted repair is often more cost-effective than a full roof job and effectively stops the leak at its source.

Proper gutters are your roof's first line of defense. In our area, clogged or damaged gutters can cause water to back up under your roof shingles or overflow, accelerating granule loss and worsening leaks around eaves and chimneys. Our gutter installation, cleaning, and repair services ensure water is channeled safely away from your roof and foundation. This preventative maintenance is key to extending the life of your roof and avoiding interior water damage.
