FAQs
I'm noticing a lot of granules in my gutters. Is this a serious problem for my New Orleans home?
Yes, granule loss is a common issue here due to our intense sun and heat, which can degrade asphalt shingles faster. Those granules protect your shingles from UV rays. Significant loss exposes the asphalt, leading to quicker aging, cracks, and leaks. Pitts Roofing can assess the extent of the damage—whether it's normal wear or requires repair or replacement—to prevent more costly water damage to your home.
My roof skylight leaks every time it rains hard. Can this be fixed, or does the whole skylight need replacing?
Often, a skylight leak in our area is due to failed sealant or flashing around the unit, not the skylight itself. Our frequent heavy rains test these seals constantly. Pitts Roofing specializes in pinpointing the exact source of the leak. We typically repair the flashing and seals with high-grade, weather-resistant materials. A full replacement is usually only necessary if the skylight frame or glass is damaged, and we'll give you an honest assessment.
What kind of roofing materials do you recommend to handle both the sun and heavy rain in New Orleans?
We recommend materials with high UV resistance and strong waterproofing qualities. For asphalt shingles, we use premium, algae-resistant varieties with reinforced granule adhesion. For low-slope or flat roofs common in the area, modified bitumen or high-quality TPO/PVC membranes are excellent for sealing out our torrential rains. During any repair or replacement, Pitts Roofing focuses on proper installation and ventilation, which are critical to longevity in our humid climate.
