The best approach is a two-part repair. First, we safely remove the ice dam to prevent immediate water intrusion. Then, we assess and repair the underlying damage, which often includes replacing water-damaged roof decking and shingles. Crucially, we also evaluate and improve attic insulation and ventilation to prevent ice dams from forming again, a common issue in our Wakefield winters.

Chimney flashing leaks are very common here due to temperature fluctuations and settling. The metal flashing can crack, or the sealant can fail, letting water in behind it. Our fix involves carefully removing the old flashing, inspecting the chimney base for rot, and installing new, code-compliant step flashing and counter-flashing sealed with high-grade waterproofing. This creates a durable, watertight seal around your chimney.

Absolutely. As a full-service general contractor, we provide a complete solution. We'll start by fixing the roof leak at its source—whether it's from an ice dam or faulty flashing. Then, our team can handle the interior repairs, including water damage mitigation, drywall replacement, and repainting, so you only have to coordinate with one trusted local company for the entire project.
