Oldfield Roofing & Spouting | Roofing Services in Dayton, OH 45449

In Dayton, flashing lift is often caused by temperature extremes, high winds, and improper installation, which break the sealant bond. We fix it by carefully removing the old flashing, preparing the surface, and installing new, high-quality flashing with durable sealants specifically rated for our local climate. This creates a watertight seal around chimneys, vents, and valleys to prevent leaks.

Signs of roof decking rot include sagging roof lines, soft spots you can feel from the attic, and visible water stains or mold on the underside of the decking. Our repair process involves safely removing the affected shingles and underlayment, cutting out and replacing all compromised decking with new, treated plywood, and ensuring proper ventilation is in place to prevent future moisture issues.

Installing a new roof over rotten decking is like building a house on a weak foundation. The rotten wood can't properly hold nails, leading to premature shingle failure and leaks. More importantly, it hides ongoing structural damage. We always conduct a thorough decking inspection before any replacement to ensure your new roof has a solid, secure base, protecting your Dayton home's value and safety for decades.
