P Mulligan & Son Construction | Roofing Services in Abington, MA 02351

Abington's proximity to the coast means higher humidity and salt in the air, which accelerates rust on standard galvanized steel flashing. We combat this by using superior, rust-resistant materials like aluminum or copper for critical areas. During our inspections, we pay special attention to flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys—common failure points—and recommend proactive replacement with these durable materials to prevent leaks and structural damage.

Shingle curling in Abington is typically caused by the intense summer sun baking the asphalt, followed by our cold winters, which causes expansion and contraction. Poor attic ventilation can worsen this. While minor curling might be addressed with sealants, widespread curling often indicates the shingles are at the end of their lifespan. We'll assess the extent of the damage and your attic's ventilation. Often, a full replacement with modern, thermally stable shingles and improved ventilation is the most cost-effective, long-term solution to protect your investment.

Our local inspection is tailored to Abington's climate. We thoroughly examine for rusted flashing, curled or missing shingles, granule loss in gutters, and signs of moss or algae growth. We also check the attic for proper ventilation and insulation, as these directly impact shingle life. You'll receive a detailed report with photos, a clear explanation of any issues, and honest recommendations ranging from minor maintenance to a full replacement, always prioritizing your home's long-term health and your budget.
