Ridge tile movement is a frequent issue here, often caused by our local weather patterns and the settling of older homes. Our approach is to conduct a thorough inspection to determine if tiles can be properly re-secured and sealed or if replacement is necessary for long-term stability. We use materials and methods suited to the specific tile type—whether clay, concrete, or slate—to ensure a repair that blends seamlessly and stands up to local conditions.

Our inspection is comprehensive and designed to give you a clear picture of your roof's condition. We examine the entire surface, flashing, vents, gutters, and the attic for signs of wear, damage, or leaks. For historical or specialty roofs like wood shake or slate, we pay special attention to material integrity and fastening. You'll receive a detailed, honest assessment with photos and straightforward recommendations for any repairs or maintenance needed, with no pressure.
