Questions and Answers

Why is ridge cap damage so common in Marquette, and how do you fix it?

Marquette's severe winters, with heavy snow and ice, put immense pressure on ridge caps, which are the highest point of your roof. This often causes them to crack, lift, or leak. At Pellow Roofing, we fix this by carefully removing the damaged sections, inspecting the underlying decking for moisture, and installing new, high-wind-rated ridge caps with proper sealing and fastening to prevent future ice dam damage and air infiltration.

What are the signs of underlayment damage, and why is it a critical repair?

Signs include interior water stains, a musty smell in your attic, or cracked/curling shingles. In Marquette, underlayment is your roof's primary water and ice shield beneath the shingles. When it fails from age or storm damage, water can seep into your roof deck and rafters, leading to rot and mold. Our repair involves removing the affected shingles, replacing the compromised underlayment with a premium ice-and-water barrier, especially in vulnerable areas like eaves and valleys, to restore your home's first line of defense.

Can you repair my roof's ridge and underlayment without a full replacement?

In many cases, yes. We perform a detailed, local inspection to assess the extent of the damage. If the issue is isolated and the surrounding shingles are in good condition, we can perform targeted repairs. This includes sealing or replacing specific ridge cap sections and patching underlayment, which is a cost-effective solution. We always provide an honest assessment—if the damage is widespread, we'll explain why a larger section or full replacement is necessary for lasting protection against Marquette's climate.
